Warm, sincere, informative, authentic, delicious and happy experience with Eladi and 7 other new “friends”. The tapas were amazing in their simplicity (tomato, garlic, oil, salt with cheese and... read more jambon); I could drink the sangria all day, and the paella we helped make was so special and tasty with surprising flavors. My wife, daughter and I had a marvelous time, and Eladi (our host) was a smiling and genuine man with a great passion for food, family and friends. This is a hidden gem in Barcelona!

Everyone told me that if I’m going to Barcelona to go and try Paella. If I was going to try this famous dish out I also wanted to know the... read more story behind it about it without bombarding any local waiter with questions. This is where the cooking class becomes a learning experience. Eladi not only passionately shares the history behind Paella, Tapas, and Sangria but also tells you why people value eating this dish together as a group of friends or family. It gets enhanced when you start pouring and mixing the ingredients yourself and start to see the dish come to life. I would 100% recommend this class to everyone either with a friend or a solo traveler like myself. You and your stomach will not regret this amazing opportunity. Muchas Gracias, Eladi!

This workshop with Eladi as a host and cook is amazing! We cooked (-‘s of course ate :) traditional paella, pan con tomate and made sangria, which was all very... read more tasteful. Eladi is a good story teller and explained all about the origin of the meals and gave us useful tips how to cook at home. We received the recipes afterwards. Nice interaction with the other participants. Would definitely recommend to do when you’re in Barcelona, a different experience than al the touristic ‘go to’s’!

As a guy whose not into cooking, I was initially apprehensive about spending 3 hours of a vacation in a cooking class. Boy o boy was I wrong. Anna was... read more AWESOME, I learned about how she grew up with food specifically with a dish I liked, paella. What was just a dish I ordered at a restaurant to me before became more personal through Anna.
I had some friends who took a different cooking class from someone else the day before, they reported it was a very passive experience as they sat and watched the instructor do most of the cooking. This is definitely NOT the case with Anna's class. You will don a cooking apron and actively participate in the cooking process. Yes you will be handling knives so don't cut yourself as my friend did! After the cooking process is done, you will sit down and enjoy the creation you just made. Talking with Anna over the meal was like getting to know a new friend that is a local, we learned so much more about Barcelona, she was also interested in us and our own backgrounds as well.
I'd highly recommend booking a cooking class with Anna, if you're a small group and are flexible I'd ask if she has any open spots if you want a more intimate experience as our cooking class with our group of 4 was.

WONDERFUL. Relaxing and absolutely local experience. Great space. Lovely, knowledgeable hostess. I can safely say this (apart from Sagrada Familia and Gaudi) was the highlight of our trip to Barcelona.... read more We felt so refreshed and relaxed after this experience. I highly highly recommend doing this if you have half a day to spare. In fact make time for this. You wont regret it. My kids (11y and 8y - YES!) did a lot of cooking and chopping and totally loved it. Anna was amazing; I would do this again anyday.
