Great experience

Patricia_P, Sep 2024

We really enjoyed how to cook a paella, gazpacho and tortilla from a Spanish chef. It was stress less, enjoyable and delicious

Wonderful Hands-On Cooking Experience

Barbara_S, Dec 2023

To be invited into Chef Pepe’s school and home to learn both culinary skills, and the steps to create traditional Gazpacho, Tortilla, and Paella, is a treat. This is a relaxed and fun cooking and dining experience, with great conversation about Málaga and its history. This was one of our favorite evenings in our time in Málaga, and we highly recommend booking this class. Note on logistics: we took a cab to and from Chef Pepe’s, about a 20 minute ride from central Málaga. This is totally worth it to spend time with Chef in his lovely kitchen.

Great lesson, great experience, even better food!

This was not only a wonderful cooking lesson, but a great history lesson as well. Pepe is very knowledgeable on the history of Spain and its food and it was an amazing visit.

Pepe’s Kitchen

Sue, Feb 2020

This was one of the best experiences of my life. Pepe was a wonderful host and chef, and our food was delicious. I can’t wait to impress my family and friends in the US! I wanted to learn more!

Excellent cooking experience

marshadavidson221, Feb 2020

We absolutely loved the cooking lesson with Pepe! He was very knowledgeable and friendly and allowed us to actually get involved with the cooking. We spent almost three delightful hours in his kitchen learning all about traditional Spanish dishes. He also recommended specific Spanish restaurants that we plan to visit while we are here. We would highly recommend this experience to anyone.
