About
This is the first cooking workshop ever created in Alicante, founded in 2022 by local hospitality professionals.
Unlike other classes, we make the Central Market a key part of the experience. You’ll explore its colourful stalls, meet local vendors, and learn about the flavours and traditions that shape Spanish cuisine.
