Description

Your Unforgettable Barcelona Food Journey
Forget watching paella simmer in tourist traps—cook it yourself with Helina & Maria, a mother-daughter chef duo trained at Michelin-starred Hofmann Culinary School. Since 2018, we’ve shared our family’s Catalan culinary legacy with travelers seeking authenticity.

✨ What Makes Us Unique
GENERATIONS OF EXPERTISE: Learn from chefs whose paella secrets span decades, refined at Barcelona’s elite Hofmann school.

BEYOND TOURIST CLICHÉS: We skip gimmicks—teach traditional techniques you’ll reuse at home.

YOUR MENU, YOUR WAY: Seafood paella is our star, but vegan/meat options await with advance notice!

⏳ Your 3-Hour Experience
1. LA BOQUERIA MARKET ADVENTURE (45 mins)
Handpick fresh ingredients with your guides: plump mussels, saffron, bomba rice, and seasonal produce.

Hear insider stories about Catalan food culture and vendor relationships we’ve nurtured for years.

2. STUDIO WELCOME & SANGRIA CRAFTING (45 mins)
Sip cava while nibbling Spanish tapas: jamón ibérico, local cheeses, and mussels.

Mix your own sangria using seasonal fruits and local wine—the perfect icebreaker!

3. PAELLA MASTERCLASS (45 mins)
Cook step-by-step with Helina & Maria: toast rice, build sofrito, and layer flavors like a pro.

Learn why the pan matters: Why width > depth, and how heat control makes perfection.

Vegan/meat option? Your customized paella simmers alongside seafood versions.

4. FEAST & CELEBRATE! (45 mins)
Savor your creation family-style with new friends.

Enjoy dessert while receiving digital recipes via email.
