What an unforgettable culinary experience in Porto, Portugal! Chef Afonso was absolutely amazing! His passion for Portuguese cuisine and culture truly shined throughout the entire experience. He explained everything beautifully, from the ingredients and traditional cooking techniques to the fascinating history and culture behind each dish.
The visit to the local market was the ultimate highlight! Experiencing the sights, aromas, fresh ingredients, and vibrant atmosphere made us feel like true locals rather than tourists.
Chef Afonso was knowledgeable, engaging, patient, and genuinely passionate about sharing his culinary heritage. This was so much more than a cooking class—it was a beautiful journey through Portugal’s food, traditions, and culture.
If you’re visiting Porto, this experience is an absolute MUST! Thank you, Chef Afonso, for making our time in Portugal even more memorable! 🇵🇹❤️

An Incredible Experience
This was an incredible experience! We first went shopping for ingredients at the Mercado do Bolhão. Very fun! Our class then worked together to make our meal. Everyone had things to do: peeling, chopping, stirring, and more! Our chef, Hugo, was excellent! My fellow classmates were wonderful! The food was delicious.
I am looking forward to making these dishes at home!

Great class
I had a wonderfull time in this class. The visit to the market was just me and the host, but a few people came in for the class. The class was quite well interactive, and the explanations were on point. The mood in the group was friendly and comical. Despite being the only non spanish speaker they were kind enought to speak english most of the time to include me. The food was delicious, and the recepies quite clear.

Great Afternoon!
Hugo provided a great market tour followed by an amazing hands on cooking class. We ate the 3 course lunch with plenty of wine and good company. Hugo has a great sense of humor and was a delight.

A good way to spend an afternoon
A fun experience. Our teacher as well as being an excellent chef and teacher doubled as a comedian. We learned some things, met some nice people and ate well

Really enjoyable food experienc!
We had a great time on this visit to the market and then cooking class. It was lovely to find out about, make and eat local traditional food and wine. Hugo was helpful and funny, and meeting others, cooking together was a great afternoon. A heads up that with the market it's 4 hours, not 3 as Viator says.

Highlight
This was easily one of the best experiences in all our years of traveling. Our host/chef/instructor Hugo, managed to take a group of six people of different ages and backgrounds and not only show us how to properly prepare a wonderful meal, but to have a great time getting to know him and each other. Can’t say enough about the whole experience, including our trip with Hugo to the market to select and purchase ingredients for the meal. Great to see him interact with the vendors. Thanks for a memorable day!
