The 10 Best Classes & Workshops in L'Antiga Esquerra de l'Eixample, Catalonia
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.

My friend and I had the best time at Josh’s tapas class. We’ve been studying here for three months and have been to many tapas restaurants but the tapas we made were some of if not the best we had. Josh was very helpful, knowledgeable, and kind, and it was super cool that we were able to taste so many different dishes. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in cooking and/or just eating.

We had the most wonderful morning and afternoon with Nuria. We first met her at the local market for a market tour, where she showed us all the local offerings of produce, cheese, and meats (we skipped the meats as we are vegetarian). She introduced us to an incredible olive and saffron seller, who educated us on all the intricacies of olive varietals and saffron preparation, and all the different factors that can affect their flavors. We then went on to the amazing cooking class at Nuria's home...she had prepared so much in advance for us, having cut a lot of the vegetables, and laid out all the utensils and bowls we'd need beforehand. Plus, there was a never ending plate of cheeses and olives for us to munch on while preparing our meal...plus wine of course! Nuria is really able to meet you wherever you are with your comfort in the kitchen, but she is incredibly knowledgeable about local foods - one of the things that struck us most during our visit to Spain in general is how aware people are of where their food came from, and why it tastes a certain way because of where it's grown. In the US, we value "local and organic", but we still don't seem to pay much attention to why a certain vegetable tastes a certain way because of the specific region where it was grown...in Spain, they do. We are fairly experienced cooks and there was still so much to learn from Nuria. We are vegetarian and Nuria helped us prepare one of the most incredible feasts we have ever eaten. Her paella was exquisite and thoughtfully prepared, we had a number of amazing vegetable sides, plus the best salad we have ever had. Lunch ended with an incredible carob almond cake dessert, and then we lingered over wine and talked. It really felt like we spent an afternoon cooking and enjoying time with a dear friend. She is very easygoing, family-friendly and fun to talk to...we learned a lot about the history of Catalonia, chatted about real estate in Barcelona (her home is truly beautiful), and other random topics throughout the afternoon. We were somewhat skeptical of the value of the class at first, as in the past in other places I have found cooking classes to often be too basic, especially relative to the price. However, Nuria was able to teach a really detailed class, though I am sure she would also be able to provide a wonderful experience for someone who is more unfamiliar in the kitchen. All her ingredients were local and organic and her philosophy around food is also something she shares. You get what you pay for, and after taking Nuria's class, not only do we feel it was a good value, but Nuria clearly puts a lot of attention to detail and thoughtfulness into her class, and that level of effort is not easy to pull off! The cooking class was the highlight of our time in Barcelona and in Spain altogether. We can't recommend Nuria highly enough!
