Attended the class that Sophia lead. She was a fantastic hostess and chef. I thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the Mercado for ingredients and then the class itself. I attended with a friend. It was so much fun and so cordial that we made a new friend at the class and had dinner with her!

Sonya was personable and well informed. She has a wonderful personality for this type of work. she draws you into the culture and the food experience. Loaded with background knowledge. The menu selection was excellent. She allowed us to do just enough of the work without it being overwhelming. Everything was exquisite! The squash and pear soup was delicious as was the paella made with fresh seafood from the. Market across the street. The atmosphere was relaxed, Pleasant, and productive. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who visits Barcelona.

What a great evening Juan our chef/teacher was fantastic We were a group of five from the UK, joined by 2 from OZ and 2 from USA. We all took part in cooking a gorgeous 4 course meal. Once all the knife skills were out of the way the wine was flowing as we cooked the various courses. Lasted around 3 hours. Highly recommend
