Hemos disfrutado mucho y aunque sabíamos hacer paella hemos aprendido cosas nuevas. Fede lo ha hecho muy muy bien. Todo muy completo: buen maestro, buen ambiente, buena bebida y comida, sin prisas y disfrutando… no se puede pedir más!!! Gracias Translate this opinion into English.

We enjoyed it a lot, and even though we knew how to make paella, we learned new things. Fede did a great job. Everything was excellent: a great instructor, a great atmosphere, good food and drinks, and we enjoyed ourselves without rushing. You couldn't ask for more! Thank you. Opinion translated.

Federico fue nuestro guía. Con gran amabilidad y diligencia nos explicó todos los detalles y pasos para preparar las paellas y la sangría. Comprar los productos en el Mercado Central lo hace aún más personal y auténtico. Además, pasamos un rato muy agradable. Desde luego, es una actividad imprescindible.

Federico was our guide. With great kindness and diligence he explained to us all the details and steps to prepare the paellas and sangria. Buying the products at the Central Market makes it even more personal and authentic. In addition, we had a very pleasant time. It is certainly a must-do activity. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fred and the chef were excellent. Fred promptly met us at the Central Market and the tour group joined him as he picked up and explained the ingredients for the paella’s and Sangria. We walked a short couple of blocks to a restaurant where the class was held. The whole class participated in making seafood and pork/veggie paellas then enjoyed it at a sit down meal with appetizers and Sangria. It was a lively, fun and informative experience. Thank you/mil gracias!

We recently attended a paella course that exceeded our expectations! The course began with a visit to the vibrant Alicante market, where we explored fresh produce. Fred shared insights about the ingredients, deepening our appreciation for authentic paella. Making paella and sangria was a highlight! We learned valuable techniques and had a blast. We highly recommend this course to anyone interested in learning paella and immersing themselves in local culture!

The workshop contained a little tour of the market with time to look around and various stops to buy fresh ingredients. The cooking itself was social and authentic with some really good food hacks alongside. All in all, a really fun, local and memorable experience.

Really a good value and fun experience. It was a full group (14), Federico kept it really cohesive and flowing. Guests were from many countries and all understood the explanations. It was obvious he has a good relationship with vendors in the Mercado and controls a large group in a crowded space efficiently. The detail provided was interesting and just enough. The meal was great, the chef was helpful and it was exactly as advertised, even better. Federico was personable and professional.

Maria is very cheerfull and knows how to tell her stories in an interesting way. This activity can also be used as a tour around the market, because she shows you the whole market and tells interesting details. It's also a nice opportunity to get to know the local food culture. It's a nice activity with teenagers.

This experience was a great success. Juan Luis and Rosario shared their history and their know-how with enthusiasm and humor. Don't expect to just learn how to make paella, of course you will; you will learn a lot about the city of Alicante, its history, culture and traditions. The paella was wonderful but above all, the shared moment was unforgettable. Translate this opinion into English.

Experiencia divertidísima y muy recomendable para pasar un buen rato. Desde la compra por el imponente Mercado Central hasta terminar de comer la paella, todo merece la pena. Agradecer a la guía María, a la chef Rosario y la ayuda de Elena el día tan bueno que nos hicieron pasar. Una empresa que está empezando, pero que estoy seguro que si siguen por este camino, llegarán a mucho más. Translate this opinion into English.

Hilarious experience and highly recommended to have a good time. From shopping in the imposing Central Market to finishing eating the paella, everything is worth it. Thank the guide María, the chef Rosario and the help of Elena for the good day they made us spend. A company that is starting, but I am sure that if they continue down this path, they will reach much more. Opinion translated. Show original.

Fue una experiencia inolvidable. La visita al mercado, cocinar la paella, pero sobre todo Juanlu y Rosario con los que nos sentimos muy cómodos gracias a su trato agradable, simpático y familiar, te encontrabas como en casa. Es una actividad muy recomendable, de las que se recuerdan, pues se aprende más de un truquillo y a cocinar arroces alicantinos muy ricos. Muchas gracias a los dos, volveremos a hacerla cuando podamos!!

Una experiencia genial en todos los aspectos. Juanlu y Dolores son un encanto, más que un taller parecía una comida entre amigos escuchamos, preguntamos, aprendimos, nos reímos,.. Bien organizado, sencillo de entender, colaboramos en todo momento en su realización y disfrutamos de su sabor (nos quedó estupenda). Vuestra triple "A" funciona, nos vemos en el próximo.
