Just do it

Lovely evening. Very Personal because we were in the hosts’ home. Love having their dog amongst the group. The view was wonderful overlooking the harbor.

Alfonso welcomed us into...

Alfonso welcomed us into his home and created an amazing experience. From being greeted with his dog to the view from his terrace and the table display, to his knowledge of cooking, it was all so well done and my husband, in laws, parents, and I had an amazing time. And it was just the right balance of doing the cooking and watching the cooking too!

Operator response

Sharing authentic seafood paella, local culinary traditions, and a warm home atmosphere with stunning rooftop views is what makes this experience so special. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you all back for another unforgettable evening in Barcelona.

Best Paella in Barcelona is Alfonso’s!

If you’re looking for something special with detailed expertise, authentic paella and an amazing view of Barcalona, then come and meet Alfonso and Txema! Felt like going to friends place for dinner and getting to learn of the secret sauce. Did you know paella tells you when it’s ready!? The sound changes… Alfonso knows 😇.

Thank you for this fantastic review! Alfonso and Txema will be so happy to hear you felt like you were going to friends' place for dinner – that's exactly the warmth we want to create. Learning the secret sauce of authentic paella, including that amazing tip about the sound telling you when it's ready – pure expertise. Stunning Barcelona views, detailed know-how, and authentic seafood paella make this a truly special experience. Come back anytime – friends are always welcome!

Must do

It was a great experience! Alfonso is an ex chief and very knowledgeable and explains everything we did in the kitchen. We made a three course dinner with an amazing sangria. I would highly recommend booking when in Barcelona. PLUS A VERY CUTE DOG.

The Best of Barcelona

I waited to make paella until I could learn from a local and have an authentic experience and I'm so glad I did. Cooking and learning from Alfonso was amazing. He was so knowledgeable and so thorough with his explanation. I really left with a greater appreciation for the dish. And that's not all-- we made delicious gazpacho and sangria as well, and the whole meal was topped off by cream de catalan. We took it all in on the most beautiful terrace overlooking the marina. The whole evening was just one glorious Barcelona immersive experience and I highly recommend. Thank you again, Alfonso and Simon (and Gray), for opening your beautiful home❤️

Operator response

Thank you for this beautiful and heartfelt review of our Rooftop Paella Seafood Cooking Class in Barcelona. Waiting to learn paella from a local, and choosing Alfonso’s table, means so much to us. We’re thrilled that his deep knowledge and thorough teaching gave you a greater appreciation for the dish, and that the gazpacho, sangria, and crema catalana made the evening feel complete. Sharing that meal on the terrace overlooking the marina, with Alfonso, Simon, and Gray opening their home to you, is exactly the kind of authentic, immersive experience we love to create. Knowing it became a glorious Barcelona memory is the best reward. You are always welcome back to our kitchen and our rooftop.

In Home Paella Class

It is at the demonstrators personal home. The view of the harbor from the balcony is incredible. Both he and his partner are warm and wonderful. They do have a dog that is chill and relaxed. Preparing the meal of gazpacho, paella, dessert, and sangria was fun. Eating the meal on the rooftop terrace was exquisite. I highly recommend this tour!

Operator response

This made our day! A Barcelona rooftop paella class with harbor views, gazpacho, sangria and the warmest hosts — that's the authentic Spanish home cooking experience we're so proud to offer. So glad you felt right at home from start to finish. Until next time!
