Experience Details

Meet Josh at his cooking studio, a modern, professional-grade kitchen with a beautiful, classic 1800s-style Barcelona dining room. Chop up fruit to prepare sangria, the perfect start to your culinary experience! Then, Josh will take you through the stages of preparing seafood for your paella. Learn some of Josh's favorite culinary tips, like how to make flavorful fish stock using local rock fish. Expect a hands-on cooking class - Josh's philosophy is that you will learn to cook only by doing it! As Josh details the different ingredients and techniques of your dishes, you will prepare a traditional paella together. At the end of the class, Josh will offer you a chance to caramelize the sugar on the top of your own crema catlana dessert! Enjoy your meal together with Josh while you talk about food, travel, music and Catalonia. A few dishes that you might enjoy are esqueixada (salad), calamares encebollados (squids) or xistorra (special type of chorizo) and of course paella!
