Eladi is an excellent host and his telling of the history for paella and importance of it for the Spanish community was a highlight. A gentleman.

Amazing experience and I recommend it for anyone who wants to know more about paella and sangria. I came by myself but the interaction was very good.

Don't search for another "paella class" in Barcelona - this is the one to do. Our host Eladi was truly a charismatic and knowledgable gentleman who made the cooking class... read more feel hands on, but you do just enough work to also relax and enjoy some down time in between certain steps. We chopped our own ingredients (vegetables) while all seafood was prepared ready for us which made it feel relatively clean and quick to prep. We even made our own sangria to enjoy with the sangria - however while it was chilling Eladi served us delicious white wine we enjoyed with a porrón and lots of laughs!
During this experience we learned about the history, styles, and meaning behind paella. With acoustic music playing in the background, we sizzled onions, cooked shrimps, stirred broths and herbs and had a wonderful experience overall. Eladi particularly made the experience stand out. I did this with my best friend, but would recommend for large groups too!
