Hands on fun with a fabulous chef! - The cooking lesson was one of our favorite activities in Portugal. Carla, our Chef, was personable, super accommodating, and provided a wealth of knowledge and experience from her long career in restaurants and hospitality. When planning our trips and various activities, I conduct a lot of research in an effort to ensure the best possible experience. Other feedback, specifically about Carla, did not steer us wrong. She absolutely MAKES the class! Food was fabulous and we even learned some related Portuguese history. Thank you, Carla and Lisbon’s Best!

You need to do this class - I cannot recommend this cooking class with Chef Carla enough! She went above and beyond to make this an unforgettable experience for my family. Not only did she teach us how to prepare authentic Portuguese dishes, but she also shared stories and insights about Portuguese culture from her own experiences. Carla’s warmth, kindness, and extensive knowledge made the class feel so personal and special. Every moment was engaging, and the food we made together was absolutely delicious. This experience was worth every penny, and I’d gladly do it again. Thank you, Carla, for such a memorable dinner!

It was a lovely... - It was a lovely experience and would highly recommend adding the trip to the market. Christina and Rita made us feel like we were old friends in their kitchen. They are the “Ina Garten’s” of Lisbon!

Great experience for the entire family! - Our cooking class was a wonderful experience for our entire family. We were there with 7 adults and children ranging in age from 3 to 14. Carla gave each member of the group a hands on job that was a lot of fun for everyone. In addition to a great cooking lesson, she taught us some history about the foods we were preparing. I highly recommend this class.

Fun times! - This was a fun activity to do upon landing in Lisbon. Carla ensured we were well fed and had a wealth of knowledge to share. The food was excellent and we made things we wouldn’t have normally ordered in a restaurant. The food came out amazing and went home with bellies full! Thanks Carla!

Good, but not good enough - The kitchen is beautiful. But the chef is really just a crook; there were no recipes to take home and very very informal guidance to Cooking. The ingredients were simple (down market.). The fellow participants were delightful and so we did have some fun.
