Back at the school, you’ll prepare your sangría and a seasonal starter: gazpacho in warmer months or a warm salad during cooler weather.

You’ll then cook your own paella, Spain’s most iconic dish, while our chef explains its origins, cultural importance, and shares practical tips.

After cooking, you’ll sit down to enjoy your creations as lunch with your fellow cooks.

Classes are in English, no experience is required, recipes are prepared in pairs, a recipe booklet is included.

I had a fantastic experience! It is my first time doing a cooking class overseas, and it blew me out of the water. The chef is super funny and entertaining, and the instructions were pretty easy to follow. We made the best paella, sangria, and lettuce that I had on my trip. Highly recommended - I had a really amazing time :)

Super fun! You can explore the market and learn about different ingredients in Spanish culture, their varieties, and how they're made... you can gain knowledge along the way. Every dish we made in the class was delicious, especially the Spanish rice. I think it was even better than what you get in restaurants. I had a very pleasant morning here. Even if you're going solo, it's no problem at all ❤️

Review for: Join-in class

We had so much fun in our paella class, from buying the ingredients fresh till we start cooking. Our chef Angel is very knowledgeable, time sensitive and full of good vibes, without any dull moments! Sangria making is included and an appetizer so it's a good deal. It's very interactive and lots of things to learn, with some side tips to make your paella doable to where we reside. Such a good deal and good way to eat paella😉 go and purchase their class if you haven't decided yet, no regrets at all!
