Tapas & Paella kookcursus in Madrid met een professionele chef-kok

My family and I could not have enjoyed this cooking class more. I highly recommend it for any and all travelers who like food.

I traveled with my husband and 2 friends and we decided to join a cooking class after our friends had done some cooking classes in other cities to experience the local food. Loleo did a fantastic job of making us feel comfortable cooking dishes we had never tried our hand at before and would otherwise sound intimidating. The food was fantastic and we also learned about some of the history of the dishes and tips on how to make them work well at home. The cod fish may have been the best fish dish I’ve ever had. It was a very fun experience! Would 100% do it again

Hands-on experience. The kitchen is well set up. Met people from different parts of the world. Friendly and enjoyable. Chef communicated well and answers questions. Provided recipes. Plenty of wines.

Our week in Madrid was filled with highlights, but for me, this was the best of them all. Exactly as advertised, it was friendly, personal, unrushed, educational and DELICIOUS. All portions, including wine, were generous. I can’t say enough about our chef/teacher, Lola. Knowledgable, warm, funny and professional in every way. Simply put, if you’re looking for a small-group cooking experience, don’t miss this one.

Great prep ahead of time, made it easy to prepare so many things. Thank you. The food and company was great!

Our cooking class was flawlessly planned for a seamless experience between Chef Lola, her assistant Seda and our group members. Lola ensured all 5 of us were engaged as we learned about the Spanish food culture and the dos and don’ts of making paella and 3 other dishes—all while sipping a delightful Spanish wine. We also learned about the different types of olive oil, and how they are used. Chef Lola’s space was a beautiful, sparkling clean private space with no distractions from our cooking experience. She connected the professional and personal aspects of Spanish cuisine. The ingredients were fresh and personalized to accommodate the food preferences and dietary needs within our group. The food was delicious and we can’t wait to try the provided and practiced recipes when we get home! We highly recommend taking a class with Chef Lola!!

We loved it. Highly recommended. Great food, great coaching from our master chef Lola. 10/10, would tapas again

We had a great time thank you so much ! Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a cooking experience ! 🙏🏻💯

If you’re visiting Madrid, do yourself a favor and book a cooking class with Lola—you won’t regret it. From the moment we arrived, Lola was warm, engaging, and incredibly passionate about Spanish cuisine and culture. She made everyone feel comfortable right away and created such a fun, welcoming atmosphere. What really stood out was how educational the experience was—she walked us through every ingredient, explaining not just what we were using, but why it mattered and how it fit into traditional Spanish cooking. Making paella and tapas under her guidance was both approachable and exciting, and the end result? Absolutely delicious. It was so rewarding to enjoy a meal we helped create, especially one that tasted as authentic and flavorful as it did. This class was easily the highlight of our short visit to Madrid. I can’t recommend Lola’s classes enough—whether you’re a seasoned cook or a total beginner, you’ll walk away with great memories, new skills, and a full, happy stomach.

This was a phenomenal experience! Lola really knows her stuff, she taught us how to make the best meal I've had in Madrid. This was the perfect ending to a great week in Spain. I highly recommend you take this class.
