Tapas of Granada - One Day
Cooking Class Vacation Details
In the shadow of the stunning Alhambra, the iconic symbol of Muslim architecture in Spain, the town of Granada is a culinary delight. The home of the Spanish ‘tapa’ or small plate, Granada’s cuisine combines Spanish heritage with a distinctly Arabic flair.
Granada, Spain Cooking Vacations
The kitchen of a local restaurant, based in a traditional “Carmen,” the typical house with garden characteristic of architecture in the area, will be your classroom as you explore the diverse flavors of Granada. Jorge, your chef and instructor, will lead your 3-hour cooking class, which will focus on classical Andalucian cuisine and modern variations on traditional dishes. Class is followed by a leisurely lunch where you will savor your creations.
If you would like to enhance your culinary experience, you may opt to add a visit to the traditional local market into your cooking program and learn about specialty local products while you select ingredients for your class. In your free time, join one of our unique culinary and cultural excursions with a tapas tour of Granada, tasting tour of Spain, or visit to a historic olive mill. Participate in a guided group tour or reserve a private guided tour of the Alhambra, the most-visited landmark in Spain, and the symbol of Granada. Or, explore the narrow labyrinth of the Albaycin district, a World Heritage site, where the Moorish influence is still evident in the exotic tea rooms and shop stalls. Climb to the Mirador San Nicholas and listen to the sounds of flamenco music bouncing off the ancient walls as the sun sets behind the Alhambra.
Fall in love with the mystery and the magic of Granada.
