What You’ll Experience

Start a journey through the flavors of the Basque Country. Our immersive workshop takes you beyond the kitchen as we explore the local market, a vital source of our inspiration. Witness firsthand the vibrant mosaic of ingredients that define Basque cuisine and gain a deep appreciation for the importance of locally sourced products. Immerse yourself in the world of selecting pristine fish and interacting with the artisans who bring Basque cuisine to life: farmers, fishmongers and butchers. In our school, you are the culinary artist, creating iconic Basque dishes under the guidance of our expert chefs. Our experience goes beyond the kitchen. Take not only souvenirs, but also an apron like a precious souvenir and recipes to continue your culinary journey at home. Each step is practical, designed for both novice and experienced cooks, ensuring everyone’s participation. And the experience reaches its climax with thoughtful pairings. As you delight in each dish, a selected glass of a pairing drink elevates flavors to new heights.
