    Must do. Maria lead a great, relaxing class where we got to know the other diners, and we learned a lot about seafood in this region. It was fun, educational, delicious, and the Cava and sangria flowed freely. I’d definitely do this again, given the chance.

    This was such a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend it. The chef Maria was fantastic and she showed us, as a group, how to buy and prepare the food. It was a small group, which was really lovely and by the time we finished making dinner and sangria we were all friends. This is a must for your to do list. It is truly a unique experience and I really enjoyed every minute of it. We had so much fun learning and cooking together.
