What To Expect
Learn how to prepare the most traditional pintxos (tapas) of Basque country in this 100% hands-on cooking class. You will be preparing between 4 local pintxos and our team will provide dessert and some local cheeses and charcuteries to complement the meal. The whole meal will be eaten after the class so you don´t need to think of food afterwards.
The class will be taking place in our recently opened cooking school at 5 minutes walking distance from The Guggenheim Museum. The school is very spacious and luminous, with a large island and a comfortable seated space to enjoy the meal that you prepare.
We used to run the classes in another location but since the pandemic we decided to start again in a walking distance venue to all the main hotels and b&b of Bilbao!
