Really great experience,...

Larisa_P, Jul 2025

Really great experience, we made things we never tried before. The chef was really nice and gave lots of tips along the way. We got lucky to be just the 2 of us and the chef, so it was nice to have all the attention of the chef. Would really recommend it.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Thank you so much for your lovely review! 😊 We're so glad you enjoyed the experience and had the chance for such a personalized session with the chef. It's always great to try something new — and even better with great company! Hope to welcome you back soon! 👨‍🍳✨

Nice cooking class

Martine_P, May 2024

We booked the place for a team building session among colleagues. We really had a lot of fun experiencing new recipes, helping each other, swopping teams in order to help finishing on time and finally siting down to eat the three dishes we cooked together.

Never happened

David_B, Apr 2024

Never met anyone at the meeting point. Just like other tours no communication between Viator and the tour operators. It’s a shame. I was really looking forward to this one

Response from Host, May 2024

Hi David, Thank you for your review. Can you please provide us with more info so we can check what happned, as we are not able to find your booking in our records? We really want to improve all things that do not go the way we intend and for that we need that aditional info. Thank You, Nuno Pedrosa

Fantastic!

Marcia_L, Mar 2024

We made a great Portuguese meal. It was a class of 4, which was perfect and enabled everyone to have hands on time cooking.

Great time and wonderful food! A must do!

Debra_M, May 2023

Absolutely great time! A must do in Lisbon. The food was incredible and we learned so much about the culture.

No stress cooking

Claudette_C, Oct 2019

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our class. The chef/instructor was pleasant and told us about the history of the food we were preparing, as well as having us participate in its preparation. The class was small (5 people), and the kitchen was in a unique location adjacent to an old church in the Chiado neighborhood of Lisbon. There was no stress to perform heroic feats of culinary adeptness. In fact, the atmosphere felt more like an interesting and relaxing conversation in someone's home. We left relaxed and well fed. I highly recommend this class to anyone who is looking to learn about Portuguese food, as well as spend a few hours enjoying good food, good wine, and good company.

Niet tevreden

Dafne_V, Aug 2024

Eigenlijk ben ik niet tevreden over deze ervaring. Wij hebben 65 euro per persoon betaald en dat is veel geld. Waar bij de workshop begeleider geen uitleg gaf, recepten gaf die niet klopte en de workshopbegeleider wou het eigenlijk het liefste allemaal zelf doen. Hij proefte de heletijd ons eten en likte zijn vingers af. Ik baal van deze ervaring omdat we er wel 325 euro voor hebben neer gelegd, ik zou het netjes vinden als jullie ons hierin tegemoet kunnen komen.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Dear Niet, i am sorry the class did not meet your expectations. We thank you for your review as we always value an honest opinion and inputs in order to make us perform better. Hope we can see you again to let you see this was an one time question that happened to you. Thank you Nuno

Kein Kochkurs - Preis und Leistung stimmt nicht

Lars_S, Mar 2023

Netter Koch mit ein paar lustigen Geschichten. Leider eine sehr einfache Menüauswahl mit möglichst günstigen Zutaten. Kaum gekocht, nur zugeguckt. Wirklich gut essen geht in Lissabon besser und günstiger als hier. Wer wirklich kochen will ist in diesem Workshop auch falsch. Das Prinzip den Umsatz zu maximieren wird auf die Spitze getrieben, indem die Küche in einem normalen Haushaltswarengeschäft ist. Nicht zu empfehlen

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Dear Lars, Thank you for commenting our cooking classes and give us the oportunitty to improve. We will take good note of your recomendations. As for the class in an Hardware store (i am using google translate from German, so not sure it is exactly like that), we have some small brands corner in our workshops stores, and that usually is something apreciated when visitin our Porto and Lisbon spaces and more suited for our more relaxed and cultural oriented classes. Hope we can see you again in one of our classes. Regards, Nuno

Tentez votre expérience aussi!

Isabel_L, Aug 2022

S'était très bien, nous étions une dizaine de personnes à se connaître, cuisiner et manger ensemble les saveurs du Portugal. Du bon vin, de la bonne bouffe avec un cuisinier hors pair. Génial
