About This Experience

Immerse yourself in a 2 hours 45 minutes gastronomic experience in San Sebastian where you go from diner to cook: a practical cooking master class in one of our secret kitchens in the Old Town, led by an expert chef with translation provided if needed. You will learn key techniques of Basque cuisine by preparing iconic dishes such as creamy Spanish omelette, perfectly emulsified cod al pil pil, stuffed piquillo peppers, and the celebrated Basque cheesecake, finishing with a tasting of what you cooked paired with one red wine, one txakoli and one cider. We work in a small group so you can refine cuts, timing, and sauces, and take home recipes you can replicate along with professional tricks and advice on local produce. This culinary experience connects you with the spirit of San Sebastian, a city surrounded by one of the highest concentrations of Michelin stars in the world, an international benchmark that explains the local obsession with technique, flavour, and seasonality.
