100% recommended - It was a wonderful experience where we learned about Paella and other Spanish specialties! Maria and her team guided us through the process of cooking a delicious seafood Paella and we enjoyed it at the end with wine and a wonderful conversation with our classmates and friends!!!!

Sepia, jamón and sangria! - Intimate, engaging and delicious! Get submerged in Spanish cooking in the middle of Barcelona and come out with a black tongue and mouth! A wonderful experience that will give you an excellent understanding of how to prepare the most popular dish in Spain: paella! Yum!

A delicious and fun way to experience Barcelona - Our chef and guide was a pleasure to spend time with. She shared a wealth of knowledge (a third generation chef) about the Boqueria market and about making paella and sangria. The experience was informative and fun with lots of laughter.

Wonderful class! - We loved doing the paella class. I had a dietary restriction, and they were wonderfully accommodating. We had cava and made bread with tomatoes, sangria, three kinds of paella, and dessert. We left full and very happy!

Awesome Cooking Experience - We began the evening at the St. Josep La Boqueria where Maria explained it’s history and then proceeded to purchase and teach us about all the necessary ingredients for our paella. We then headed to her cooking studio where we made sangria (fantastic!) and the paella ( SO GOOD!). We also had delicious hors d’oeuvres and wine. Maria is an amazing chef and a delightful hostess, as was Helina. It was a thorough enjoyable experience!

Best Barcelona Experience - I came to Barcelona with 2 friends and the paella cooking class might have been the highlight of our visit. Maria was ready and waiting for us at the big market stalls and we walked around as we drank cava. Since we had headsets we were able to hear clearly as she explained the various ingredients. Our small group of 7 bonded quickly and we laughed our way through the various instructions, enjoying plentiful wine and our own sangria. Do not hesitate to book this. I guarantee that you will have a fabulous evening with lots of fun memories of this experience in Barcelona.
