“We had an amazing evening with Loleo and would absolutely recommend the class when visiting Madrid. We have been on a number of cookery classes whilst abroad and this was by far the best yet!

Cook Madrid-style tapas with Chef Lola, including croquettes, paella, cod, and Russian salad, then enjoy your meal with Spanish wine.

“Chef Lola was wonderful! We were 8 at dinner. She engaged with all of us and accommodated vegetarian and aversion to bell peppers tastes. Wine was poured freely! Our dinner was a Russian Salad (basically a tuna salad), croquettes, paella both vegetarian and squid based, and a cod with tomatoes onions and peppers (and one without the peppers). Tea and coffee was served. The evening was not rushed. We learned lots about the dishes and where the food is sourced. We all went home happy and with recipes. Highly recommend this class.Read more”
