If you want to try a great experience in Barcelona and bring back a new skill, learning how to make Paella and Sangria could be your new thing. It was... read more enlightening to see how a professional chef makes it. It was fun to chop, mix and make it and at the end eat and drink what we created. Very very fun!

It was a very unique experience. Eladi was a great host. I’m a history buff so I loved hearing about the history of paella and it’s cultural value. Right after... read more the class, we went to the grocery store to buy the ingredients that we couldn’t find back home . I would highly recommend this class.

We had great time at the cooking class. The chef was so nice and shared a lot of information about type of paella and Spanish traditions. We only had... read more 5 total so it was a small group. The Paella is the best I ate in my life. I'm so used to the more soupy one but the crispy rice in this paella is absolutely wonderful. Sangria, dessert and bread with tomato are all so good. The experience was so good, I ended up buying the paella pan and spices for cooking at home. It is a must do.

We enjoyed the experience but it didn’t meet our high expectations from other cooking experiences we have had like this one. We wish we could have made our own paellas,... read more although we can understand from the history of paella making that it is usually done together as a family. From a learning perspective, it would have been nice to do all the steps ourselves. Furthermore, we wish the experience was structured so that we could have gotten individual photos with the paella at the end. Overall, it was still a good experience.

Our teacher was wonderful and really brought the importance of cooking as a family to life. I would definately do this again.
