Great
It was a very informative class. I just hadn’t realized that there would only be one cooking station so it was less individually involved than I had anticipated. Well organized and pleasant experience.

We had a fun cooking class with a professional chef, Mattin, he explained all the steps and you can participate as much as you wish. The best was the cheesecake!

We had a great time and learned a lot about basque cooking. We made several dishes, tasted wines of the area as well as Cider and enjoyed eating all the dishes we prepared. It was a very relaxed environment, we made new friends and had all our questions answered about visiting the area. Everything was well organized and ready to go when we arrived. We would do it again!
