Learn how to make Gambas al Ajillo and Patatas Bravas in this Tapa Party cooking class with a chef video calling you live from Spain

Tapa is a way of life in Spain. Spain is a culture of enjoyment and focus on a good life. The tradition of tapa is a perfect glimpse into this life. Contrary to what many think, tapa is a style of serving food, rather than the food itself. Anything can be a tapa, as long as it's served in a small bite and is meant for ordering lots of plates meant for sharing. Typically, tapa are served between meals, in bars and homes alike, often with friends and a beverage to boot. And while anything can be a tapa, there are some iconic tapa - the classics, the heavy hitters, the ones you want to eat at every tapa party. If you know those tapas, this cooking class is for you.

The information sheets that came prior to the class were extremely helpful. They prepared me fully ahead of cooking. Chef Ben from Spain was amazing! He taught us a bit about San Sebastián and shared many cooking tips and tricks throughout. He was engaging and a really great teacher! Highly recommend

Kristen Mullins

Chef Ben was amazing. Better than I even imagined. We did the tapas class and it was so much fun. The food was fantastic and it was so nice talking with Chef Ben and learning from him about Spanish cooking and San Sebastián. He made the whole experience fun and delicious. I will make it to Spain one day to thank him in person. Can’t recommend this experience more! Thank you Chef Ben!

Paul Ferland

We highly recommend Chef Ben and his Basque cooking class!!! We made several Basque pintxos from scratch. Chef Ben was great company and a great teacher - fun, patient, and super informative about the origin of the dishes we were making and how important they are to Basque culture. The food was so delicious. We can't wait to visit him in San Sebastian some day!!

Monica Ann

I had an amazing experience with Chef Ben at my San Sebastián class! Chef was very patient with us and educated us with the food and the area of San Sebastián. Our food was PERFECT! Just excellent! I look forward to my next Chef & The Dish experience.
