Excellent cooking experience with Anna! She is knowledgeable and completely attentive to the cooking lesson. The Canary Islands menu was delicious! Thank you Ana for giving us an unforgettable experience in cooking! We had a wonderful dinner and all the food we prepared was delicious. Although the clean-up was pretty extensive, as they say in Brazil, "valeu a pena" (it was worth it).

Took Ana's class today on seafood paella. It was the best cooking class I ever had. I love paella, have had it only at restaurants, but now I can make it at home. Ana is an amazing chef and teacher. I cannot travel to Spain right now to take a class in person, but thanks to Skype Ana was able to give me a live class remotely. It was amazing!

Hubby booked me a virtual cooking class with Chef Ana from Fresh Cooking Spain for my 40th birthday. I learned how to make authentic paella, Alioli, sofrito and a simple cheese dessert in 2 hours. To live during this pandemic and be transported and connected to another person in another part of the world to experience and learn in place of actual travel is the best gift one could ever have.

We had the most wonderful evening making delicious Spanish tapas with chef Ana López Marin on Wednesday night. It was such fun and Ana took us through it step by step, with lots of time for stories and laughter too. What a lovely way to feel transported to the tastes of Spain during lockdown. Thank you Ana
