    Learn to cook traditional Spanish meal with a focus on using ingredients & techniques you can use at home. It was a fantastic experience and my favorites were learning how to clean a squid (unexpected), make paella, and flip Spanish Tortillas. Highly recommended!

    Great time with good learnings

    Ricardo is very welcoming and genuine. He taught our group some good techniques and tips for making 6 Spanish dishes including sober salsa, tapas, tortillas and paella. We had a good time and enjoyed the other 5 people that came from various places. It was good fun and great time spent in Mallorca for a 1/2 day things-to-do.

    Delicious and fun cooking experience!

    Maria did a wonderful job teaching us all new techniques to making a great Mallorca meal! We all got to participate in the preparation which was so much fun. Wine and beer included too. Looking forward to making the recipes she shared with us when we get back home!!

    Highly recommend!

    Vivian was super knowledgeable in Spanish cooking and such a blast to learn from! She took the initial awkwardness away quickly and by the end, everyone was laughing and talking. The dishes were incredible and easy to bring back home to enjoy. Highly recommend!

    ' PAELLA LOVER' Brilliant experience !

    David_W, May 2022
    Highly recommend this experience. We learned so much about traditional paella making. Guillermo is an absolute pro and a lovely guy. The Masterclass was exceptionally well organised and is a true 'hands on' learning experience . Guillermo is an honest and genuine host. Do this and become a 'Paella Lover' !

    A HIGHLIGHT OF OUR TRIP!!

    This paella cooking class was a real treat!! The "master paella chef" Guillermo did a great job setting up the cooking class, guiding us through the steps and giving us tips on how to make a good paella. He also shared a bit about the history of paella, southern Spain and Mallorca. After we made the paella we sat down for a delicious meal with wines that were paired perfectly with the meal. This cooking class has been one of the most fun things we have done on our trip/cruise - highly recommended!!
