Our group of five ladies had the best time at this paella cooking class. From the moment we arrived, our host Benjamin made us feel completely welcome — warm smiles, great energy, and a beautiful setup that made us feel at home. Benjamin spoke really good English and made the whole experience easy to follow and so much fun. We started off with a delicious glass of sangria (included!), then learned how to make authentic paella step by step. Everyone got to participate, and we picked up some great tips along the way. The paella turned out absolutely delicious, and to top it off, our instructor even gave us with a complimentary dessert! Highly recommended 👌

We attended this really fun, interactive class with one other couple and Benjamin was so informative and made this class so much fun. My husband and I are so excited to use what we learned to host friends for some awesome paella!!! Benjamin truly had a passion and knowledge of food and made sure all who attended had opportunities to experience making honestly the best paella I have had while in Spain!

The class was a lot of fun and the teacher was fantastic BUT the location was moved and it did not take place on a rooftop. Luckily, it was on a ground floor patio. The only reason it did not earn 5 stars was that I as looking forward to the rooftop experience. It should niot be listed as such if it isn’t going to be on one.
Excellent class for aunthentic paella

We had such a fun time with this class! Such a unique, hands-on experience that my family and I will never forget. The rooftop vibe felt so intimate and homey, which makes for a less intimidating and more comfortable setting for a cooking class. Benjamin was the perfect teacher to helping us make our first ever paella. He starts the class by having everyone help him make sangria and goes into a bit of the history of paella as we drink a glass, then immediately getting to work. He’s thoughtful, friendly, funny, patient, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful in telling us the dos and don’ts of making authentic paella, as well as giving you tips on how to make it at home with ingredients local to your region. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn how to make authentic paella! Thank you, Benjamin! - Tito A.

What a great experience! One of my favorite experiences in my trip to Barcelona. Our host and chef Benji hails from Costa Brava so he was able to impart regional relevance to the well-storied paella. The rooftop location was great and added a backyard homestyle feel. The class started off learning how to make our own pitchers of sangria and starting off the paella. In the meantime, we made some pan con tomate (tomaquet) to chow own. There's something special about everyone helping out to cook paella and being able to sit down and enjoy it at the end. It was a great experience. Bring your appetite and some shades!
My favorite part of my Barcelona trip

Benjamin was amazing. It was very laid back. He showed us what to do and let people do as much/as little as they wanted. There were two other small groups with us, so 7 people total and everyone was so nice. The whole experience was about 2 hours and we had a really nice time talking, cooking, drinking, and eating some really good food! Overall so welcoming and accommodating. This was the highlight of our trip!
