My 5 year old daughter and I did this and loved it! Eladi made her feel very special. The food, company, and experience was great.

This was exactly what I was hoping for, getting to make and eat delicious paella and also learning some tips and history along the way. Eladi was a delight as... read more a teacher and made sure everyone participated. As a solo traveler for this trip, it was also a nice way to meet new people and enjoy a shared meal together.

Truly a fantastic experience. The hosts were warm and friendly, and accommodated rescheduling due to unforeseen events. Carlos is an excellent cook and an even better teacher! I would recommend... read more this experience to anyone looking for a unique experience in Barcelona. Be aware that you will smell like the sea after the experience 😂 But it is worth it.

I was really looking forward to taking this class with Eladi. Last year i took a similar class and it was amazing. So after reading these reviews I knew this... read more would be one for my family to love. Instead it felt as though the class was unplanned, unorganized and lack entertainment. Our instructor was not engaging and left the room in 30-45 increments twice. In fact, of the two hours, our instructor was only their and present with the class for 20minutes. The food was subpar, the sangria was awful and lack of engagement was not what I expected. I would not recommend this class if you can’t guarantee your instructor

great place with a nice atmosphere. Anna told us about traditions and Catalan food. It's a great idea when you want to experience sth more than tourism.

This was a great experience. We went as a family, and were able to truely enjoy the Paella making process. It was a very enjoyable way... read more to meet others that were in Barcelona on holiday from other countries as well. Our teacher was wonderful and really brought the importance of cooking as a family to life. I would definately do this again. In fact, I have all the ingredients together and am having friends next week for dinner. Can't wait to pass on what we learned. Highly recommend this experience!

As a guy whose not into cooking, I was initially apprehensive about spending 3 hours of a vacation in a cooking class. Boy o boy was I wrong. Anna was... read more AWESOME, I learned about how she grew up with food specifically with a dish I liked, paella. What was just a dish I ordered at a restaurant to me before became more personal through Anna.
I had some friends who took a different cooking class from someone else the day before, they reported it was a very passive experience as they sat and watched the instructor do most of the cooking. This is definitely NOT the case with Anna's class. You will don a cooking apron and actively participate in the cooking process. Yes you will be handling knives so don't cut yourself as my friend did! After the cooking process is done, you will sit down and enjoy the creation you just made. Talking with Anna over the meal was like getting to know a new friend that is a local, we learned so much more about Barcelona, she was also interested in us and our own backgrounds as well.
I'd highly recommend booking a cooking class with Anna, if you're a small group and are flexible I'd ask if she has any open spots if you want a more intimate experience as our cooking class with our group of 4 was.
