The class was amazing!
It wasn't just about making paella, I was very touched by the story that paella is a dish that creates closeness and intimacy around family and... read more loved ones.
I would definitely visit other Eladi’s master classes

He was gracious enough to speak in English with... read more our group and told us all about the history and culture of the recipes we made. he added personal touches and intriguing stories to go along with it too. part cooking class, part social hour!

Learning how to make a traditional paella was super fun with Eladi, who was extremely knowledgeable about the history and techniques of different dishes in Catalonia. Would feel very confident... read more making this for friends and family

We really enjoyed this cooking class, it ending up being one of my favorite things I did in Spain. I was worried it might be small and in someone’s kitchen... read more but it was a big beautiful space. The host was funny, relaxed, and a great teacher. The food came out amazing as well.

It was a wonderful evening!! I will be able to go home and easily make tomato bread (a tapa) and sangria. The paella might take some practice on my part,... read more but the paella we made with Eladi was fantastic. So glad we did this experience!!

We stayed in Barcelona for 10 days. This was, without doubt, one of the most memorable highlights of our trip. This was not just a cooking class, but... read more an exploration of the emotional and cultural aspects of the rituals around food. Eladi: "In the Mediterranean we don't cook with ingredients, we cook with love ... "[cooking] is about a strong relationship with your loved ones" ... "we take that very seriously".
Everything was perfect! I highly, highly recommend this adventure to everyone! Don't miss it!

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.
