Must do in Valencia. AMAZING. - Antonio was AMAZING! I am so happy that he was the chef that we received. WARNING - Be prepared to NOT like paella anywhere else. I am 100% serious. His paella was sooooo good that everywhere else was sub par. We had it 2 more times after this class. Nothing compared to what he taught our group to make. Antonio also had us make a salad and sangria. Yum and more yum. He taught us tricks to making the perfect paella as well as where we can get the cookware at reasonable prices. Then we finished with the most delicious mouth watering cheesecake that you can imagine. This class is a MUST in València. Antonio, Antonio, Antonio……..Amazing. We loved your excitement and personal touches you made to our experience.

Fun and deliciousness. - What a fun filled night of laughs and deliciousness. We were a group of 4 joined by one other solo traveller a beautiful young lady from the USA. We were all involved in the making of Sangria, salad and Paella. Antonio was an amazing teacher and story teller we so enjoyed his company and his knowledge of food and cooking. We were also provided with potatas bravado and anchovies for entree. The drinks were plentiful and the food was amazing.

A Valencia must do - We had a great time cooking together. The paella we made was delish. The chef is so knowledgeable that I feel like I could actually cook a paella and do a decent job. He talked about the different features of what is a good paella and how to achieve it, how to overcome problems that may arise. And he gave us contact info in case we have questions when making it at home. Great time, great paella, great tapas, great sangria, great night!

Relaxed, informative and fun - Myself and my partner attended the class. We were two of four, so it was very relaxed and informative. We prepared everything with Antonio, who is a very personal and friendly guy. He knows his craft very well, and we laughed with him a lot. Both myself and my partner had a great time, and went home feeling very full. I would have sero hesitation recommending the experience, we enjoyed every part of it :)

Be prepared to get cooking. Get involved for the best experience - This was an enjoyable couple of hours making Paella. Carlos clearly knows what he’s doing and the final product was delicious despite the 8 “cooks” who tried their best to help. On our evening this was Carlos first time teaching at this location so he was feeling his way around a new kitchen a bit but the final product was high quality. We went out and bought our own Paella Pan to try to see if we can repeat what we leaned. Fingers crossed because we’ve been given the tools. It’s up to us now. Finding rabbit for our own version may be a challenge though…
