Perfect family activity - Great time! We had a private class with 9 of us - 5 kids were sll 16 or older but think would be great for younger kids too. Instruction was clear and easy. Ingredients were super fresh and resulting food loved by all (and more than we could possibly eat). Highly recommend

The best meal cooked by yourself with Ana & Carina - Ana and Carina are not only great hosts, they are super nice and very well prepared so you can make a delicious Portuguese diner in a very good atmosphere. They know how to make you feel like a real chef and all ingredients are super fresh. We loved it!

Wonderful afternoon! - Learning to cook traditional Portuguese recipes with Ana and Carina was a highlight of our trip. Not only did they create a beautiful menu that accommodated our food restrictions, but they managed to engage my husband and I along with our teenage son. We truly enjoyed laughing, getting to know them, and learning about food culture in Portugal. What a delicious meal and a fantastic experience!
Obrigada Carina and Ana!

Culinary trip with two exceptional guides - I can highly recommend these two wonderful ladies and their cooking class. The environment they have created was so wonderful, friendly, fun and educational. We really felt their love for food, family and meeting new people. In total we created 6 dishes and they prepared upfront an aperitif. The kitchen had enough space for our group and it was easy to interact with the group. I can highly recommend visiting them. They have so much knowledge and great tips in case you need advice of where to go in Lisbon and or the south of Portugal.

Creating and eating excellent food. - Carina and Ana are well organized and prepared. The timing of all of our dishes was perfect and it felt like cooking with family even though most of us had only just met. They made the whole experience felt easy, relaxed, and fun. I would definitely do this again.

Great food great fun! - A must do event for people
Who love food and good company! My husband and I had such lovely evening with Ana and carina . The food we prepared was outstanding and used only simple fresh ingredients ! They taught us the cultural impact and origins of many of the ingredients which only added to the experience and illuminated just how wonderful Portuguese cuisine can be! I have always been intimidated by cooking and walked away from this evening feeling confident and excited to try this on my own!

Best Cooking class ever !!!!!’nn - Ana and Carina are amazing women and Chefs. We booked our class on the last day of our visit and we didn’t realize it was holy Friday. They were kind enough not to cancel on us. They were very patient and helped each one of us with what we had to cook. the food was amazing. The wine was amazing. I highly recommend taking this class and I would so do it again when I go back to Portugal.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - I’m not even sure how to put into words how incredible Carina & Ana’s cooking class was. They were super charismatic and funny, in addition to being truly inspirational and passionate. This was translated with their effort, intricacy and leadership in both the teachings and dishes. They are both such a great representation of their country. They arrive HOURS before the class starts just to prep all of the ingredients, on top of all of the thought that goes into planning the menu and sourcing the ingredients - all with consideration to what’s local and what tells a story. They are very accommodating to food sensitivities and allergies to make sure everybody had a good experience. The flow of the class was so organic and made us immediately feel like one big happy family despite moments prior being strangers. The food was delicious, and things that I will definitely recreate at home. They should be very proud of what they have created, as we are grateful for the opportunity and for sharing their culture with us 🫶 If I could give this more stars, I would.
