Experience Details

The experience begins with a tour of the nearby La Boquería market.

With a rainbow of top-quality produce and diverse blend of aromas, it’s hardly surprising that it is saturated by tourists, making it all the more useful to have a local guide you through the hustle and bustle. The guide will explain to you about traditional foods and the most popular Catalans products as well.

After that we come back to our gastronomic space in order to go ahead to make the cooking workshop.

All carefully prepared to perfection, the sampling menu consists of a spectacular array of ten “Tapas”, originating from various cities within Spain. The chef will explain the history of Spanish cuisine through these “Tapas”.

After that we will be ready to start the cooking class.

As a menu we will cook Seafood Paella, Spanish Omelet and Crema Catalana for dessert. Enjoy excellent regional wines.

Includes drinks throughout the activity, in the Tapas, in the cooking class and in the Menu.
