This activity is truly special as all products are sourced directly from a village in the Castilla La Mancha region of rural Spain. Everything you consume is farm-fresh, with no items from city supermarkets.

Paul, a private chef, has traveled, cooked, and dined throughout Spain.

The menu is collaboratively designed in advance. Typical dishes might include 25-day-old baby lamb or pig, bull’s tail slow-cooked for 8 hours in wine and herbs from the land, river fish, La Mancha eggplants, and vegetables from the garden.

The cooking is of Michelin star quality, though there is no desire to earn a Michelin star, as working in a restaurant is not preferred. Many TV star chefs are often rude and disrespectful to other chefs and kitchen staff (like Mr. Rhodes).

Cooking is done exclusively in a private home near a 10th-century castle, with dishes connected to the history of the African people who built the castle over 1000 years ago.

Experience La Mancha Spanish farm cuisine with a touch of African Arabic influence.
