Good to know before you go
  • ** The La Boqueria Market visit is an integral part of our culinary class experience. However, please note that the market is closed on Sundays, public holidays, and during the last class. As a result, the visit is excluded on these days.
  • - Since everything is freshly prepared, our chef will inquire about dietary needs at the beginning of the session. There's no need to contact us in advance.
  • - We don't want you to miss out on any important information or the market visit, at the start of the class. Please give yourself a few extra minutes to arrive early. If you are late, you can meet us at the kitchen about 40 minutes after the class starts, or feel free to wait for us there (just press the doorbell above the mailbox).
  • - Light walking is required before, during, and after the market.
