My mom and I booked this last night and so happy we did! It’s our first time in Europe and we tried one airbnb experience last night (and loved it)... read more and wanted to try this cooking class. Super fun and memorable! Our host was great and we’d definitely recommend :)

Eladi was a very friendly and warm host and explained a lot of the history of the ingredients, traditions, and cultural aspects that I really appreciated. He also included all... read more eight of us in the preparation. Time went quickly because we were having fun and the experience ended on time. The location is very interesting and beautifully decorated in an industrial style. Just know that if you are walking here, you will burn the calories beforehand for sure.

It was an intimate and thoroughly enjoyable class that I would highly recommend to anyone.

I left a review once before, the day we did this but it does not seem to be there anymore. My wife and I did this our last night in... read more Barcelona, Sept 6, 2018. It was the highlight of the trip! Eladi was a great host and teacher, and the food we made was amazing! Whether you are a great cook or not, you will love this event. I recommend this to anyone going to Barcelona and even shared the link with a few coworkers who are planning trips. I can't say enough great things

Our group had a lot of fun and we all loved the paella and Catelonia Creme - so much so that we bought a bunch of saffron and smoked paprika... read more and ordered a paella pan to replicate the dishes back home. Thanks for a great time!

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.
