What an enjoyable evening. It is hard to know if we had a better time cooking, socializing with people from around the world, or eating the wonderful food. One of us had a seafood allergy and another was vegetarian. The class was easily able to accommodate both needs. This class is well worth the time and effort.

Alex welcomed us warmly with nice cold cava and guided us to the well organized class. The paella receipe they shared was my kind of one… not mushy and wet. Three versions of flavors made the conversationan at the table more fun and enjoyable. Wish they could utilize participants for other cooking such as gaspacho and others… well done!

Eric and Alex were wonderful! They made us feel welcome in Barcelona, and to the culture of Barcelona and Spain as a whole. Eric is a fantastic chef and Alex was the perfect host – what a great pair! This was probably my best experience in all of Spain.

This was a great experience and much more than just a cooking class. From the start, they emphasized the experience of cooking together and sharing food (and a lot of wine). Excellent instructors and with their guidance we produced and shared an amazing meal.

We were a group of 8 including two boys ages 5 and 7. This experience couldn't have been better for us. The wine and beer were flowing the entire time. We learned a lot about the way they cook in Spain while being entertained the entire time. HIGHLY recommend.
