Barcelona feels a bit surreal – appropriate, since Salvador Dali spent time here and Spanish Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí designed several of the city’s buildings. Stepping into Gaudí’s Church of the Sacred Family is a bit like falling through the looking glass - a journey that you can continue with a visit to Park Güell. Sip sangria at a sidewalk café in Las Ramblas while watching flamboyant street performers, then create your own moveable feast by floating from tapas bar to tapas bar.

bcnKITCHEN is a local cooking school, we are passionate about food and our objective is to share that passion with you! We have two kitchens, one in the charming Born district and the other in the Boqueria market building, all of the ingredients we use come from the market that you will be visiting with our chef. Once you arrive back at our cooking school, wine in one hand apron in the other, it’s time to start cooking! After a couple of hours of action you’ll sit amidst the dishes you have prepared with the satisfaction of having prepared a Spanish feast!
Myself, my teenage daughter and her friend all spent an amazing four hours with Amelia (and 8 others) at BCN Kitchen in El Born cooking a range of Spanish dishes and then having a sit down meal together as a group. We started off with a group trip to the local market which is much more authentic (and reasonably priced!) than La Boqueria and Amelia talked us through how to choose good ingredients, especially fish. Lots of us bought saffron to take home as it is very inexpensive in Spain and some of us bought local cheeses and meats as well (vacuum-packed means they don't have to be refrigerated). When we returned to BCN kitchen, everyone got involved in the slicing, dicing and cooking and Amelia was very good at ensuring we all had jobs to do. No one stood around bored and every step of the cooking process was explained for each of the dishes (we will be emailed the recipes later). Although one might imagine chaos with 11 of us in the kitchen, it was a smooth operation in a spacious area and everyone in the group (singles, couples and families ranging in age from 11-about 55) was friendly and very social. Wine and water were provided and added to the congenial environment. We prepared gazpacho, Spanish tortillas, tomato bread, paella and creme Catalan...to finish off! After about 2 hours of cooking, we sat down to eat together and what an amazing meal we had! I have no doubt that everyone involved had a wonderful time. Amelia was the perfect hostess and teacher and we all left with lots of new ideas for Spanish cooking, full bellies and smiles on our faces.

It offers a variety of food related services and it is managed by Anna and Nuria, who love gastronomy and love to make people feel like home. Anna is a terrific Catalan cook, runs home-style cooking classes in which she teaches private groups how to cook classic Spanish and Catalan recipes. After the classes, you will enjoy what you have cooked in a private dining room with wine included. Canela Fina is flexible to offering other types of services: private parties, wine tasting, team-building activities, etc. Classes are in Catalan, Spanish or English.
When in Barcelona, you absolutely must take the time to have the art of tapas making taught to you by Anna and her daughter Nuria. We could not be more pleased by their warmth and knowledge of Catalan cuisine. You will come away from the class with a better understanding of Spanish cooking, improved cooking skills and a full stomach from the meal you just cooked and ate. This is a must try experience!

Yves Nicolier is a social cook in his new life. As such he does cooking workshops, private cooking events, cooking classes, showcooking events or cooking parties where guests and cook come together and just flow in the same space between food and conversations. At La Boqueria, he does offer a cooking experience which combines a guided grocery session with a hands- on cooking class at his private kitchen.
I visited Barcelona with a group of friends and this was by far the most AMAZING experience! From the moment Yves picks you up till the time you are finished you will have a once in a life time experience. If you are looking for a custom, market to table, hands on cooking tour this is the only experience I would recommend. This isn’t only a cooking tour, Yves takes you through the market and teaches you about local food, the history of Barcelona, different regional dishes and anything else you can think to ask him about. For anyone who has dietary restrictions this is a tour that will not disappoint. Since Yves helps you decide on a custom multi course menu he can conform to any dietary requests all while using fresh ingredients and helping you learn how to cook. As someone who has high expectations for food and wine quality I was blown away by the customization and the overall quality of everything during this experience. There is nothing I would have changed about the day my fiends and I had.
