Exception, I’ll pay a cooking experience! - The experience was wonderful! Our family loved every minute of it! They accommodated my two children beautifully and everything was spectacular. The groups were small and intimate. The wines and sangria were delicious. And the explanation of how to bring paella home to cook it in New York was very special! Would highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to go!
