Don’t miss this class!! - Eladio was such a great teacher and story teller. My husband and I enjoyed his class immensely. We loved how he incorporated history while teaching us to make the Paella. This class is a must do when in Barcelona!

Cultural and culinary window to remember - 5-stars!!! This cooking class was the highlight of our trip. It more than about learning to make paella l, rather it was a deep dive into Spanish culture, tradition, and the meaning this dish holds in rural communities. The instructor was fantastic: passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited to share the history behind every ingredient and technique. And the best part? We made the best paella we tasted during our entire visit. The quality of the fresh mussels, tender squid, vibrant vegetables made a HUGE difference, and the market visit gave us the opportunity to see where it all came from. My two kids had a wonderful time as well, which made the experience even more special. This class delivered on every level. I would do it again. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an authentic experience.

Highly recommend this delicious experience! - This was a highlight of our Barcelona trip. Eladi teaches you the history and cultural significance of the celebratory paella meal and shares his best recipes. We participated in preparing simple tapas, sangria, and seafood paella. Plus, it was located in a beautiful neighborhood worth exploring after the class.

So much more than a cooking class! - My favorite experience in Barcelona, by far. Eladi was our maestro for cooking school, but he gave us so much more about the culture, customs, and people of Barcelona. I felt a special connection with the maestro and would highly recommend his class for the simple, genuine way he was able to relate food to the culture of these beautiful people. A very special day for me.

Paella with nice sofrito and lots of umami - Chef Eladi follows a recipe of success for his class: He begins with a "sofrito" composed with history and contextualization of eating in Spain, ingredients and what we are going to prepare. He is passionate and captivating ("apaixonado" and "apaixonante" in portuguese). We participate in the process, eat wonderful results, enjoy the time. And let´s not forget his touch of umami, his sympathy.
