As a family who loves food and cooking we were pumped for this cooking class. Our spirits were lifted even higher when we met our chef Paulo who immediately greeted us with a warm welcome and showed real enthusiasm about cooking. While we weren't able to go to the market with Paulo, but heard that it was an excellent opportunity to learn what chefs look for in ingredients when curating their menus. Moreover, we really loved the environment Paulo created in the kitchen, he was excellent at combining professionalism with a home style vibe and making us all feel included and helpful in the kitchen. 10/10 experience and would definitely recommend to anyone regardless of culinary interest or experience!
Great time with a fun...
