The experience is super relaxed, we start by sitting down and tasting a little bit of Portugal, while I give a brief explanation of what we're going to cook. Cooking while hungry is a bad policy. When we're ready, we put on our aprons and start the teamwork, under my guidance. Some of the ingredients are from my backyard, and I'll take you to see what they are... As we prepare the food, I'll tell some stories about the origins of the ingredients to be used. In the end, we set the table and sat down to savor all the dishes we've prepared. IMPORTANT: If you have any food allergies or follow a specific diet (vegetarian, paleo, vegan, etc ...) let me know as soon as possible so we can prepare in advance all the ingredients needed.

Traditional Portuguese meal

This cooking class was absolutely a blast. Wine and cooking what more could you ask for. Truly was one of our favorite things we did in Portugal. Bruno was so knowledgeable and picked a delightful traditional meal to teach us that we definitely will do at home. You will not be disappointed.

This pastel de nata baking class was such a highlight of my time in Lisbon. The instructor was incredibly kind, funny, and made the class enjoyable from start to finish. The experience was hands-on, easy to follow, and full of laughs. Best of all, the pastéis de nata we made were absolutely delicious! I’d highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Lisbon who wants a fun, interactive, and tasty experience.

Wonderful Experience!

Stress-free, easy going and fun cooking class, Pedro our instructor was amazing, he taught how to cook traditional Portugese meals in a way we won’t forget, extremely knowledgable guy! Would recommend this for anyone new to Portugese food, also would recommend checking with the company to ensure which location you are at as there are two different locations, Viator gave us the address for the location we weren’t supposed to be at, it was no biggie though just be mindful!

Not just Natas! Cook a full meal with an amazing person!

My daughter was looking for a cooking class that was all about Natas! For the same price, we got to spend few hours with Paula! It was a heartwarming experience! We went to the market, we cooked a full meal and NATAS at her house which made this experience absolutely unforgettable! We had fresh homemade lemonade! Paula took the time to write to us prior to our meeting to ask us what we would prefer to cook. She gave us so many fun facts and cooking tips! At the end the table was filled with good food, good wine and a new friendship! Paula is a sweetheart. She took the time to bring my daughter shopping afterwards to buy the special natas plates! Thank you so much Paula for welcoming us into your home. This was wonderful experience that we aren’t going to forget! On top of that Paula is located not far from the bridge and the statue! She ordered a Tuk tuk for us right after our meal! For food lovers : Paula is the answer!

Really lovely experience....

Really lovely experience. Filipa was really funny, informative and overall a great experience. There were only 6 of us which meant we all got a personalised part of the process. The actual pastel de natas were delicious! Would definitely recommend. The shop is also beautiful and the other staff very friendly.

Pastel de Nata with Beatriz

Making Pastel de Nata from scratch was an incredible experience in Lisbon. Beatriz provided an informative history of the dessert. We had a small group of 5 which was nice! Beatriz was feeling a little bit under the weather at the time but provided a fun and light atmosphere experience nonetheless. The Pastel de Nata was absolutely delicious! Thank you so much, Beatriz!

Highly recommend

Great experience. The instructors were knowledgeable and patient. I’ve been cooking for a long time but still learned so much. It was a clean and well set up cooking space. Each small group has their own station and worked to prep each dish under the instructor’s watch. The food was wonderful! Sharing the meal with the other students at the end made for a wonderful evening. Highly recommend this company.

Best Ever Cooking Experience

My lady and I shared the most delightful afternoon with Katija and the meal she guided us thru. Preparing was only part of what made the experience so delicious! The setting is close to the city while also a world away - bucolic, peaceful, serene-only 20 minutes away from our hotel in Lisbon, but it felt as if we had journeyed to another time, Katija welcomed us like old friends into her charming dining area where we sipped a delicious tea freshly brewed from the lemon verbena leaves picked moments before on our tour of her garden. We learned about her home and the family connection it has to her. Katija shared pictures of her family and showed us artifacts of her grandfather and other family members. This was far more than a cooking experience. Katija took us on a journey through time as she well planned, manageable task with a relaxing pace as she kept us engaged with her friendly, interesting conversation and delicious meal. Extremely highly recommended.
