Veganske/vegetariske smag af Portugal
Beskrivelse
Oplevelsen er super afslappet, vi begynder ved at sidde ned og smage lidt af Portugal, mens jeg giver en kort forklaring på, hvad vi skal lave mad. At lave mad, mens man er sulten, er en dårlig politik. Når vi er klar, sætter vi vores forklæder på og starter teamwork, under min vejledning. Nogle af ingredienserne er fra min baggård, og jeg vil tage dig for at se, hvad de er... Mens vi forbereder maden, vil jeg fortælle nogle historier om oprindelsen af de ingredienser, der skal bruges. Til sidst satte vi bordet og satte os ned for at nyde alle de retter, vi havde forberedt. VIGTIGT: Hvis du har nogen fødevareallergi eller følger en bestemt kost (vegetarisk, paleo, vegansk osv ...) lad mig vide så hurtigt som muligt, så vi kan forberede alle de nødvendige ingredienser på forhånd.

My friend and I had a wonderful time cooking, eating and getting to know fellow travelers. Our host was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and a lovely person. We learned a lot about Portugal and food and our vegan meal was outstanding. We highly recommend this experience!
This was a one-of-a kind and amazing experience! I was traveling solo and Katija made me feel so welcome and was very engaging. She is a wonderful person. My cooking skills are definitely better too. The food was delicious and very healthy, which is so nice to have when traveling and dining out frequently. I 100 percent recommend this experience.
Thank you so much for your kind words! 🌿 It was such a joy to welcome you and share this experience together. I’m so happy you felt at home, enjoyed the healthy and delicious food, and left with a few new cooking skills too! ✨ Wishing you many more wonderful travels, and you’re always welcome back for more flavors of Portugal. 🍷🥘💛
Horrible experience. Left this experience very upset and overwhelmed after being treated very uncomfortably by the host. When I initially booked this tour, I was excited to do such a unique activity, as vegan/vegetarian cooking classes aren’t widely offered. This tour is 30 mins outside of Lisbon, which we did not mind the distance, as we were excited to do this cooking class. The host mentioned that we were cooking in her home - out of respect for her home, I confirmed with her if she was ok with us taking pictures and recording - and the host confirmed yes, she was ok with that. After receiving confirmation, I took pictures and videos, as we were very excited to take this class and wanted to have photos for my memories, as I was celebrating my birthday. The host also shared facts about Portugal and the area we were in, which I was taking notes, like I do on all my tours. Upon my recording and note-taking the host rudely claimed she was uncomfortable I was recording and note taking which came to me as a shock since she confirmed she was ok with it and never expressed that she did not want us to use our cameras or phones. I later learned she was upset because she claimed it disturbed the “flow” of the experience. As a customer I was very excited annd enjoying the moment up until that rude encounter, which made me extremely uncomfortable with how the host acted towards and I no longer wanted to do the activity anymore. I was very confused as to why she was upset and bothered that I was taking notes. Upon mentioning we were going to leave, as we no longer felt welcomed during this activity, she offered to pay our uber for the inconvenience and never followed through, as I messaged her requesting this since it was offered by her. What was supposed to be a fun experience for my birthday, turned into a completely ruined moment. Do not waste your time with book with this experience.
I feel the need to respond clearly and respectfully, especially considering the nature of your review. This experience -not a tour- takes place in my private home, which has been in my family for generations — a space I open with generosity and care to share authentic Portuguese food, stories, and connection. It is an intimate and respectful environment, and I trust guests to approach it with the same presence. Although you asked if you could take some photos, what followed was constant phone use, including filming me while I was speaking, and typing continuously on your phone. One thing is to discreetly capture moments; another is to behave as if you're documenting a class, while completely disengaging from the energy and flow of the experience. When I gently expressed my discomfort, your reaction was extremely negative — even going so far as to ask me to leave my own space so you could speak in private with your sister. That level of entitlement in someone else’s home is simply not acceptable. At that point, I chose to cancel the experience and immediately issued a full refund via the platform. This is not a public cooking studio — it’s my family home. And while I am always welcoming, I also protect the integrity of the space and the well-being of all guests. I had offered, out of goodwill, to call you an Uber — which you declined — and later requested reimbursement, since the experience was booked via Viator, I cannot process such a refund outside the platform. Inappropriate actions and behaviors when visiting a private home require common sense, respect, awareness of the space, and the spirit of the experience. Needless to say, the overwhelming majority of reviews and experiences I host stand in full contrast to your account and behaviour. I wish you more clarity and care in your future travels.
This class was my favorite of all the experiences I booked. I was a solo traveler and blessed to have had Katija all to myself in her beautiful home. She is inspirational and her meals were simple yet delicious! Her place is gorgeous and the conversations we had I absolutely cherish. This is a very special curated experience from start to finish. Please do not hesitate to book her class, it was so insightful and I got to learn a lot about Portugals gastronomy and history from her knowledge. I look forward to creating these delicious meals in my own home ❤️
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure to welcome you into my home and share stories, flavors, and laughter together. I'm so happy to hear that the experience stayed with you and that you felt inspired — that means the world to me. I hope the recipes bring back good memories when you recreate them in your own kitchen. Wishing you many more meaningful journeys and delicious meals! ❤️✨
The place, the food, the host and the atmosphere, everything was very good! We really had a good time. I will definitely repeat it
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure welcoming you into my home. I'm so happy you enjoyed the food, the atmosphere, and the experience. I would absolutely love to have you back anytime — it would be a joy to cook and share new memories with you again! Warm regards, Katija
My friends and I had a culinary experience with Katija and it was memorable. I was curious to see how Katija was going to teach us some portuguese vegan dishes since portuguese cuisine is very famous but not for its vegan dishes. The choice was great and it involved lots of tasty vegetables and tofu and a great twist to the famous dishes. It was a full hands on experience in a typical portuguese house with lots of laughther and great food and drinks. We even had a herby tea (using herbs collected from the garden) to finalise the meal.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! It was such a joy to share a vegan twist on Portuguese flavors with you and your friends. I'm thrilled you enjoyed the hands-on experience, the laughter, and the food we created together. The herbal tea from the garden was the perfect way to end a truly special meal! You're always welcome back for more delicious moments. Warm regards, Katija
I thoroughly enjoyed the vegetarian experience with Katija. The food was delicious and easy to prepare, the conversation was fluid and the space is very authentic and relaxed. It was a well spent afternoon with a very good host that made me feel at home.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really happy you enjoyed the vegetarian experience and felt at home in my family house. It was a pleasure to share that relaxed and authentic afternoon with you. You’re always welcome back for more! Warm wishes.
