Description
Discover the real taste of Alicante in the city’s first and most authentic cooking experience!
Your adventure begins at the Central Market, where your local guide will take you through colourful stalls to meet vendors and pick the freshest ingredients for your paella. Learn about Mediterranean products, local traditions, and daily life in Alicante.
Then, step into our real working kitchen inside a local restaurant, where locals actually eat — not a tourist set-up. Guided by our professional chef and host, you’ll prepare your paella from scratch: from the broth and Alicante’s signature salmorreta (sofrito) to the final golden rice. Choose your style — seafood, meat, or vegetarian.
While your paella cooks, enjoy a tasting of local tapas and your own homemade sangria (with or without alcohol) — or another drink if you prefer.
Finally, share the meal you’ve created with fellow travellers in a warm and relaxed atmosphere.
Local chef, local market, local kitchen — the true flavour of Alicante.
