Amazing paella class, worth repeating. This class was so much fun, I would gladly do it again. The instructor is a wealth of knowledge both culinary and cultural. The dishes we made were all fantastic - ESPECIALLY the paella! I’ve been raving about it to my friends and family ever since and can’t wait to share it with them.

The market was fantastic and the paella the most authentic I’ve ever eaten. The chef, menu, tour group and atmosphere made for a worthwhile experience.

Super fun hands-on cooking class with market tour. Our restaurant owner/chef shared tons of great tips for making the perfect Tortilla Española and the best Paella. Our family of 3 throughly enjoyed the class, the delicious food we made and the welcoming hospitality of the chef and his team. I highly recommended this experience.
