  Had a wonderful time making possibly the best Paella I've ever eaten. I learned so much about the history and was able to make many friends jealous.

A 5 STARS experience

					  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.

					  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.
