Meeting point

Your host’s home is just 10 minutes away by car from Porto city center. It’s recommended to use Bolt, FREE NOW, or Uber for a fast ride. If you’re traveling with more than two people, it is the cheapest and fastest way. If you have your own car, there are free parking spots in the street. If traveling by bus from Bolhão, you can take bus 800 or 801 that stops just across the street from the house (direct 20-minute ride). Keep in mind that you can only buy the ticket inside the bus with coins. If traveling by metro from Trindade Station, you can take the Orange Metro Line (direct 30-minute ride) and leave at the Fânzeres stop, after which it takes about a 10-minute walk (700 meters) to reach the house.

What a delight to take this class with Joanna as your host. Joanna is knowledgeable, very amusing and entertaining, well organized, clean and professional. She knows how to handle a group of people with different knowledge or skills in the kitchen. Every person who signs up for this class, will get the chance to take part in every step of the process. You will make this delicious dessert and the recipe is easy to make at home. Top class!

This was one of the most enjoyable events we’ve done. Joanna is so knowledgeable about the baking process and she teaches it very clearly. Not only that, she mixes it with Portuguese history and context. The results were delicious and we went away better informed and happy. Whether you bake or not, you will enjoy this wonderful small group session. 😊
