A highlight of our trip to Lisbon! - We had the best time and learned so much in this class! I've done these types of classes before and this was by far the best experience! Our instructor was knowledgeable and flexible, she shared cooking secrets and tips we will always remember. She also shared insight on the city and the region, giving us cool ideas for activities. The dishes had variety and were delicious! We have the recipes and will make them again at home! The event was more than worth the cost, and we have memories for a lifetime. Thank you team!

Yummy Portuguese food! - Was a fun time! We had nina and marta ! You get to learn the history behind the dishes while also getting to taste your tasty hard work after. Some of the class came late but they were able to still get the rest of us on time. Came solo and left with many friends!

Highly recommend - Great experience. The instructors were knowledgeable and patient. I’ve been cooking for a long time but still learned so much. It was a clean and well set up cooking space. Each small group has their own station and worked to prep each dish under the instructor’s watch. The food was wonderful! Sharing the meal with the other students at the end made for a wonderful evening. Highly recommend this company.

Great Cooking Class in Lisbon - We highly recommend this excellent experience. My wife and I had a thoroughly enjoyable evening here. The surroundings were very modern and clean and our instructors not only stepped us through preparing several delicious, authentic Portuguese dishes, but also shared a lot of fascinating information about the cultural aspects of these items. We also teamed up with some others to prepare the meal and share the food we made with all 10 people who attended the class. As a bonus, we became so connected with the other two people that we spent the rest of the evening with them at a wonderful outdoor bar nearby and will see then again in the future.

Learning to cook Portuguese food - Wonderful class learning to cook Portuguese dishes. We enjoyed meeting other travelers. The food was delicious and definitely can be made at home. We made Peri Peri chicken, codfish with cream and shrimp à guilho.

Not only fun, but delicious too!! - What a great experience! This was offered as an optional event during the Grand Tour of Portugal and Spain that I was a part of this past May. I would say that this was a highlight of that tour! Everything was organized and preparation was guided by our chefs (both excellent) and the meal that was enjoyed was one of the top meals that I enjoyed during this tour! I learned a lot of the "how-to's" of Portuguese cooking and will be replicating this for my family and friends for sure! Thank you to Compadres Cooking School for a great evening!

It was a gastronomic delight - This class was worth every penny! I highly recommend you take one of their courses while in Lisbon. The staff were amazing. They were patient and provided clear instructions. They provided us with the history of the dishes we cooked and made us feel completely comfortable in the kitchen. The best part...sitting down with everyone afterwards and eating what we had cooked.

Highlight of our Lisbon trip - We had the most enjoyable experience. Learned a lot and really had a great time. We were especially lucky to have Anna as an instructor at our workstation, she was very knowledgeable, fun and very helpful. Great stories and tips. All 3 dishes came out absolutely delicious, much better than in most restaurants!

A great way to experience Portuguese cuisine - We joined several other tourists in making an appetizer, main dish, and dessert and had such a great experience. The instructors were so patient and helpful, explaining the customary Portuguese dishes - prawn appetizers, cod casserole, and custard deserts. There was plenty of wine and lots of laughter.
