Traditional Paella & Tortilla & Sangria
Description
Welcome to my kitchen, where every dish tells a story and every moment is shared like family. We’ll begin with a taste of Spain — a refreshing sangría made on the spot, just like we do at home. Of course, there will also be some good Spanish wine to enjoy. Next, we’ll roll up our sleeves and cook a classic Spanish tortilla, and then… it’s time for the star of the show: the traditional paella Valenciana. As a proud Valencian, I’ll guide you step by step, sharing tips, stories, and all the little secrets my grandmother taught me — so that you too can make a truly authentic paella at home. We’ll enjoy the food we’ve made together around the table, with great conversation, laughter, and a final cup of good coffee. More than a class, this is a celebration — of culture, connection, and the joy of cooking together. And if you have time afterward, don’t miss the vibrant San Ildefonso Market just around the corner! Come hungry. Leave inspired.

Got a taxi to the venue and waited outside only to be told by Viator they couldn’t get in touch with the provider and they would refund us. Not about the money about the fact we had planned our whole days activities around this and were left with 2 disappointed and cold children and no notice to book a suitable alternative.
Hello! I’m sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. It was beyond my control, as I was hospitalized, and I let you know as soon as I could, and I also refunded your money. Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused; it was completely unintentional. Thank you
Wonderful way to start our time in Madrid!! Pipa is the best teacher and cook, and she was so lovely and welcoming. She made us feel at home, and included each participant in every step of the class. There were 6 of us, and we had so much fun. Great paellas (a traditional made with rabbit and chicken, and another with seafood and chicken). We also made a Spanish tortilla, and we enjoyed a wonderful sangria. Just do this class!!
Pipa was such a lovely, friendly host. The cooking was super fun, informative, and most of all delicious! Highly recommend, we had a great time!
Our hostess Pilar was wonderful! She was an excellent teacher and we had a feast of the Spanish tortilla, Sangria, and Paella that she cheerfully taught us to make. She was warm and welcoming, and it was a treat to be in such a beautiful Spanish home with such a radiant person. We truly enjoyed our time with her, and the delicious authentic food. We highly recommend this experience in Madrid - you won’t be disappointed.
We really enjoyed our cooking class with Pipa! She was fantastic and taught us to make incredible paella and tortilla. Book this class with Pipa!
We were very impressed with this incredible cooking class with Paloma. From the moment we stepped into the kitchen, we knew we were in for something special. Paloma was a fantastic chef, warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. Her passion for her cuisine was evident in every step, and she made the entire experience both fun and educational. We learned how to make a true Valencian paella from scratch and a Spanish tortilla. After we finished preparing the dishes, we all sat down together to enjoy our dishes, accompanied by Spanish wines and great conversation. It was the perfect way to cap off an amazing culinary adventure. Thank you, Paloma, for an unforgettable day!
Such an awesome experience. Our host and Chef was amazing. She was very patient and took us step by step through preparation and what makes a traditional Paella. I definitely recommend this class!!! I was so much fun!
We had the most amazing time. Paloma was a wonderful host and teacher and the food was delicious. We had a fantastic time and we highly recommend.
A fantastic experience overall. Our host chef had us cooking this classic dish step by step. We made two large pans of delicious paella and hope to reproduce our success again at home.
We absolutely loved our time with Paloma. She met us on the street near her apartment, escorted us to her kitchen, and began a fun afternoon of cooking traditional paella and tortilla accompanied by a pitcher of sangria. We specifically selected Paloma’s venue because we could tailor the menu, she provided a small group venue and it was very personable. We appreciated her following up with a email of the recipes. Be sure to check your email spam folder as that is where I found her transmission. This session was a highlight of our time in Madrid.
