About this tour

A 2.5-hour hands-on paella workshop where you'll cook in pairs at dedicated stations, then sit down to a four-course dinner featuring your own paella alongside chef-prepared dishes and wine pairings. You'll start with cava and learn multiple paella recipes depending on group size, working through a structured method with staff guidance. Suits anyone keen to master a core Spanish dish in a social, structured setting without needing prior cooking experience.

Highlights

  • Cook paella in pairs at your own station with all tools and ingredients provided
  • Learn multiple paella recipes in one session, tasting several variations
  • Four-course dinner includes your cooked paella plus chef-prepared dishes
  • Catalan wine pairing throughout; cava welcome and premium wine included
  • Small groups (max 16 people) with structured guidance through cooking method
  • Vegetarian and vegan options available; wheelchair accessible
  • Takes place in a club setting designed around paella and Spanish cuisine

What to expect

You'll arrive and receive a glass of cava while the host explains the club's philosophy and ingredient sourcing. Then you'll move to a cooking station with a partner, where all equipment and ingredients are laid out. Staff will guide you through a ten-step paella method; depending on how many guests attend, you'll cook one or more paella varieties. While your dishes finish cooking, you'll be seated at a table.

You'll then eat a four-course meal built around your paella creation, other courses prepared by the chef, and paired Catalan wines. The whole experience runs about 2.5 hours from start to finish.
