Alicante: Paella & Sangria Cooking Class with Tapas & Market Tour Discount Tickets

Overview

Alicante’s original cooking workshop was created in 2022 by local hospitality professionals who wanted to share the food and traditions they grew up with. Here, authentic paella starts long before the rice hits the pan. You’ll visit Alicante’s Central Market with your local host, meet the vendors and shop for fresh ingredients before heading to our kitchen inside a real local restaurant. Then get hands-on with a professional local chef: prepare traditional tapas, make your own sangria and cook authentic Alicante paella from scratch, including the traditional sofrito. Choose between seafood, meat or vegetarian paella. This is more than following a recipe. You’ll discover the ingredients, techniques and traditions behind Alicante’s cuisine, share everything you’ve prepared around the table, and take the recipes home with you. Real market, real restaurant, local professionals — an Alicante cooking experience created by locals.
