Cooking paella the Spanish way - The experience was excellent. The market visit was very informative giving tips on how to insure that you are getting the freshest seafood. In the class we learned to clean and prepare squid, shrimp, clams, mussels and chicken. We were shown how and then we had a chance to practice what we learned. We added the ingredients stirred added spices then we feasted on our paella. We also learned to make sangria to enjoy with our meal Our chef leaders Maria and Kim were outstanding!!

Paella with Maria and the Gastronomic Arts Barcelona Family - What a PHENOMENAL experience!! Maria was awesome...engaging, informative, patient in her instruction and support of our involvement in the production of our own paella!! Maria introduced us to the St Josep Boqueria, helped us understand how to shop for the best of the right ingredients for our seafood paella (actually "arroz del señorito"). Maria shared the history behind terminology and the process of producing our paella...so much to absorb! We also prepared our own sangria with her guidance...definitely tasty and a lot of fun. This was absolutely a 5-star experience and we highly recommend it to anyone with a few hours to devote to it. Guaranteed to come away both full and fulfilled!!
