Cooking Class: Make Tapas and Paella in Barcelona

Soak up the culture and cuisine of Barcelona with this cooking class led by a local culinary expert.


No visit to Spain is complete without immersing yourself in the sights, sounds and tastes through an exciting cooking class. Chef Candido will guide you in creating authentic Spanish dishes to enjoy a feast.


You'll begin this culinary adventure at La Boqueria market to learn about Spanish culture and pick up fresh ingredients for your feast. First, you'll cook a soup to start the meal. Learn how to make a traditional Andalusian gazpacho, a sweet strawberry gazpacho or a rich butter squash and pear cream. Then, learn how to cook eggs, potatoes and onions into a crisp Spanish tortilla. Bake a crunch bread to top with fresh tomatoes and garlic to eat alongside your meal. Then, learn the secrets for making fluffy, seasoned rice for seafood paella. Finish with a decadent Catalan cream for a sweet dessert.
