Paella cooked was nice. It’s more of a watch how it’s cooked than be very active yourself. A little out of town,not quite what we were expecting.

A must-do activity - I left a review once before, the day we did this but it does not seem to be there anymore. My wife and I did this our last night in... read more Barcelona, Sept 6, 2018. It was the highlight of the trip! Eladi was a great host and teacher, and the food we made was amazing! Whether you are a great cook or not, you will love this event. I recommend this to anyone going to Barcelona and even shared the link with a few coworkers who are planning trips. I can't say enough great things about it.

Delicious and entertaining way to learn to make paella - This was a really enjoyable class: 11 participants having fun together making paella, crema catalana and sangria. Eladi conveyed the history and the cultural significance of paella and we all... read more participated in making this delicious dish. We then ate our creation, drank the sangria and finished off with the crema catalana. A very enjoyable experience and definitely easy enough to try back home.

A highlight of Barcelona trip! Learn, actively participate in cooking, and eat a declious meal you helped make! - 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.

Initially I registered for another paella cooking class, but it was cancelled a day before the class. I looked online and and was glad that i managed to find this... read more class. It was an excellent class! Anna is a very passionate and articulate teacher, and she shared with us all about Spanish cooking. She prepared a drink Sangria with red wine, a dessert crema catalana ( which involves a blow torch), and chicken, prawn and green bean paella. As there was one participant which was vegetarian, we also had a smaller pan of artichoke paella which was delicious. (so its good that you go with a vegeterian! Haha) This class is interactive as for each step Anna would demonstrate and then someone could volunteer to take over. At the end of the class I purchased the wooden spoons we ate with :) I saw that they also had "pimento la vera" and saffron for purchase, but I had already got that on my trip to Granada, a few days ago.
