The Paella workshop was really cool. I went there with my girlfriend and we had a great time! We were a small group, so we could really connect and learned... read more a lot about making Paella, while also just meeting some new people. All the ingredients were fresh and really tasty and the instructions were clear and easy, even for people who don’t cook that often. We really recommend this for anyone visiting Barcelona.

This was a great experience. We went as a family, and were able to truely enjoy the Paella making process. It was a very enjoyable way... read more to meet others that were in Barcelona on holiday from other countries as well. Our teacher was wonderful and really brought the importance of cooking as a family to life. I would definately do this again.
