excellent and informative cooking class

Great trip around the market and all my questions answered. Then a chance to cook and eat three delicious dishes - real hands on cooking, full sized portions! Don't eat before you go - although I did take some of mine home with me to eat later! Great instruction, brilliant set up - loved it.

Interesting and delicious!

We had the cooking class in a small group of 9 people, which was really nice. There was a lot of attention for all of us, and the English was perfect! In addition, we enjoyed three dishes that we are already excited about cooking them at home. Thank you for the great experience!

The market tour with the guide/chef was very interesting. Then the cooking class is very well-organized and it was a pleasure to follow it. All the staff of the cooking studio are lovely 👌🏼
