What to expect
After a welcome glass of cava, your host walks you through the thinking behind Spanish tapas and paella culture before you start cooking. You'll work hands-on through four courses: two tapas using seasonal produce, pan con tomate, a seafood paella built from stock to saffron finish, and a Mediterranean dessert. Between courses you eat what you've made and drink Spanish wine. Expect an interactive rhythm of instruction, cooking and tasting. The kitchen is spacious, well-equipped and positioned near Las Ramblas, so you're never far from the city's energy.
