What are people saying about Lisbon

Cooking with Bea!
It’s very interactive with the other guests! Bea was fantastic, the prep was simple/easy, the food was delicious and the atmosphere was fun. The sound with another class going on made it very difficult to hear when we were sitting at the table. Some simple sound proofing on the divided ‘wall’ would help tremendously.

A glimpse into a Portuguese lifestyle.
Paula was wonderful. Great communication and clear directions to arrive on the ferry where she met us at a nice coffee shop. We went to the local market and then back to her quaint apartment and had the most wonderful afternoon chatting and getting to know her. Yes, the food was delicious, but she was also very generous, sharing her culture and history. It was a lovely snapshot into the Portuguese daily lifestyle, which is Americans frankly we’re quite envious of. They would highly recommend this. Even after our tour, she would continue to communicate with us by WhatsApp when we had questions about Lisbon or needed recommendations.

Experiencing an evening with Chef Ze is like no other immersive cooking/dining experience. A reason to go to Lisbon!
Dining with Chef Ze in his home was the highlight of my 14 day Food & Wine tour throughout Portugal. Chef Ze welcomed the 5 of us around his cozy pre-set dining table with an appetizing presentation of 2 local cheeses, sausage, bread, tomato jam & olive oil where the first of many wines was poured & described while we learned Chef Ze’s passion for gatherings in his home & we shared our recent Portuguese experiences. The exchange flowed learning cultural facts about neighborhoods & different regions. I thoroughly enjoyed the balance of Chef Ze’s preparation of starter dishes/dessert & our hands on technique learning, tasting & cooking in the kitchen all paired with the perfect wines! Our shared passion for Portugese food & wine & life throughout the night felt more like visiting a friend. While the evening menu was established before arrival Chef Ze was like a magician throughout the night each time he opened the 70 bottle wine cooler & pulled the most divine wines taking our palates to another level. Experiencing an evening with Chef Ze is like no other immersive cooking/dining experience in the world. Memorable in every way! It is truly a reason for traveling to Lisbon.

A Fun, Hands-On Pastel de Nata Experience in Portugal
We joined Miguel’s pastel de nata cooking class as a family, along with a couple of friends, while traveling from abroad. Miguel was fun, didactic, interactive, and very knowledgeable, and we all enjoyed the experience immensely. Even better, the pastel de natas turned out surprisingly great! I would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a small, personalized, and well-taught hands-on experience in Portugal.
