"One of a Kind Experience"

This was a classic experience! Thank you so much Josh! You are amazing! My boyfriend and i were just visiting the country and this class made it extra special. First they took us at local market and they explained local ingredients, where we could find them, how to plant them and their origin. The market was so lovely, you can see the culture through the people around and how they work at the market. After the market tour, we walked to his kitchen studio and he introduced us the background of Paella, Catalan and other famous Spanish dishes. He was very good in English though. We all had a feast afterwards. Everyone was so cool. it was definitely an experience to remember. Highly recommended!

"Excellent Class! A must do in Barcelona!"

Josh was our cook and he showed us around the market and explained the different ingredients and their origin. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. After the market we walked to his studio to cook up our Paella and make authentic Sangria. He patiently walked us through the process and answered all our questions. The Paella and Sangria turned out amazing and we all came away knowing how to make the Sangria :) The Paella may take a few more practice sessions, but Josh was great with giving us a start! I highly recommend anyone taking his class! It was a fun afternoon and we learned a lot.

"Amazing authentic experience!"

We had an amazing time with Joshua, showing us round a local market & trying some local meats & olives. A short walk back to his kitchen & we made some delicious Sangria, a beautiful fresh seafood paella & finished off with some lovely crème Catalan. It was so cool to prep the ingredients as well as learn about the history of some of the food & Josh's passion for food made the experience really great. Overall a great time which ended with some delicious home cooked food!

"Our family loved it!"

Cooking Paella with Yoshua was a great experience for all the members of our family. He is not only very well versed on the secrets of a great paella but also friendly and enthusiastic. He was very careful with all our food special request and the result was a fish and vegetable Paella that could win a price. His kitchen and table are also great and also part of the experience. Thanks Yosh!

"Fantastic experience"

Josh was very knowledgable on the local markets, the foods and selections and made the cooking class itself a very memorable and enjoyable experience. It was fun, entertaining, educational and a delicious meal at the end! Very worthwhile and reasonably priced experience.
