# Paella Cooking Class with Professional Chef: Four Course Dinner

**Guidekin's take:** Cook paella in pairs at shared cooking stations, then sit down to a four-course dinner. Ingredients, utensils, a welcome glass of cava and wine tasting are included; additional wine costs extra and dietary needs should be stated when booking. 4.95 from 567 reviews at €175 per person for 2h 30m.

In our comparison: #12 of 76 in Food & Tapas Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

This 4-course workshop lasts approximately 2.5 hours and is a great introduction to the world of paella and Spanish cuisine. 

You will be greeted by one of our hosts with a glass of cava and then walked through the concept behind our club and the ingredients we work with. Afterwards, guests will organize in groups of two per cooking station, where they will find every utensil and ingredient needed to cook each paella in a fully immersive and dynamic matter. Depending on the amount of guests, several paella recipes will be made so that guests get to taste and learn how to cook more than one type of paella. 

You will feel at home while our staff guides you through our "10 secret paella steps." As a preview, we'll give away one of the 10 secret steps: Step 1—take a sip of our premium wine. 

After the workshop is over, while the paellas are finishing cooking, you will sit and enjoy other courses made by our chef as well as your paella creations with Catalan wine pairing.
