Unforgettable experience! - Our hosts Denise and Manny were so knowledgeable and fun! The drinks were flowing, everyone was so kind, and we learned a lot. I also appreciated their recommendations for other food/experiences in the city at the end of the class. This truly was our favorite experience in Barcelona and we will be booking another class the next time we visit!

Great cooking class learning Spanish dishes - Very fun class. Liz (pirate name: Peggy) and Manny are very knowledgeable on both the city and regional cuisine. We had a great time some friends and the sangria was so good. Lots of fun at the Traveller Bar afterwards.

Loved every minute - This experience was AWESOME! Denise was our guide and Manny was our chef. From the market, to the kitchen, to the food, everything was unique and well-done. Just be aware that some walking is necessary and the kitchen is on the 2nd floor of a building that is not accessible. So, if you can't climb stairs that will be an issue. Definitely recommend.

Judit was amazing in Montserrat - Judit was so wonderful to spend the day in Montserrat with. My daughter and I had a great time and Judit’s welcoming personality and knowledge of the town made it even more enjoyable.

Cooking Fun with Manny! - We had a great time making a seafood Paella with Manny! He was very kind, patient with us & knowledgeable. He was also flexible & waited for us as we were a little late due to taking the train in to Barcelona. We came as a family of 6 - my husband & I with our adult children. We also met another family of 4 and 1 other young woman. It was fun to learn how to make paella & sangria! Most of us enjoyed the seafood - but 3 family members would have preferred chicken paella. Manny apologized - as he said he forgot to ask everyone at the beginning of the class. It sounds like he may have made an alternative paella for them. But overall, we had a great time! Curry Family

More social than cooking - It was fun to get to know some of the other guests, but there were too many people to really experience the cooking.
