The class was so fun! I am not a cook and still felt very capable and guided by the instructors. Met a ton of great people in the process and accommodated my group’s allergies (gluten free and vegetarian)

This Tour is the best!!! The chefs are fantastic! The leader was so entertaining and made our experience one we will never forget.

You will not regret this pick!!!

I did this class with 5 of my friends/coworkers. It was genuinely the most fun and memorable experience. We all agreed it was at the top of our list of experiences in all our travels for the past ten years! Sooo incredibly informative even just for basic cooking skills! Sharing the meal at a long table with all your friends and some strangers that you just cooked with for the past two hours was the icing on the cake. Thank you Paella Club for creating this experience!
