Guidekin's take

A private class in a Valencian chef's own kitchen: sangria first, then tapas, paella and dessert cooked from scratch and eaten together at the table, rated 5 across 88 reviews.

The class, the meal and drinks are included at €104 per person for 3h. Small parties book the lunch slot; dinner is for larger groups, and the flat is a walk-up.
