We will give you a practical demonstration of the preparation of the Typical Paella of the Andalusian grandmothers, which you will taste along with traditional starters, drinks and dessert.
I will attend to you myself. Hi, I'm María José, La María, Haute Cuisine Chef at the Culinary Institute of Barcelona (CIB), of Latin blood and Andalusian roots.
You will learn all the secrets of the preparations that the grandmothers made using the garden products and those that they obtained by bartering with fishermen, ranchers and hunters in the Estepona area, where we carried out the experience.
We will tell you the story of the farmers in the area.
We have vegetarian options that we can arrange and we adapt to any dietary restriction or allergy that you inform us of!

Our family had an amazing afternoon with Maria and family. Great conversation with a delicious meal! We learned much about the local area and history of the farm as well as the art of preparing paella. This was truly an authentic paella experience.

This was probably the best day of our two week holiday. We were warmly welcomed, had great fun and ate delicious food. Paella is pretty technical and Maria, Rafael and Sebastian were so knowledgeable and careful to explain.
100% go! Just a wonderful and authentic family experience. Thank you so much to you all x

The experience began well with our initial group of 8 people in total. After 30 minutes of arriving, another 5 adults joined which made the experience feel cramped. Due to the large group size, there was limited food and we left feeling hungry. It would have been nice to have more than 2 prawns during the seafood paella meal and be offered another course. The desserts were small and the host went around the table asking which small cake they would like leaving us with the few left. Again, it would have been nice to have lots of small desserts leaving us with a lot more choice. We only had 1 small dessert each so not much to try.
The hosts ran out of water which may not have happened if the group size wasn't so large.
The kitchen space felt cramped, therefore we did not get to see much cooking. We paid £195 for 2 adults and 2 children and it was definitely not worth that money. We would have spent less and had more in a posh restaurant.
From the pictures and the listings there are some inaccuracies:
There was not sangria on the table. We were only offered 2 small glasses.
There was not Iberian sausage for starters (my little one would have loved it).
There was not enough mussels, I had 3.
There was no artisan pastries.
On a positive note, the hosts were lovely and made us feel welcome.

A truly unforgettable and unique experience. Maria, Rafael and Sebastian are incredibly warm and welcoming hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of their farm and were treated to some delicious starters while our hosts expertly demonstrated the preparation and cooking of an outstanding paella. We dined on their beautiful patio whilst sipping on some gorgeous wine and sangria. A really authentic and wonderful local activity. Highly recommended.

If you’re going to be anywhere near Estepona and you want to have a lovely afternoon learning how to make paella, and enjoying good company, this is a wonderful and experience with great value. Maria opened her home and provided us with delicious tapas and sangria all the while demonstrating and explaining each step of the recipe. We then shared a meal savoring the wonderful paella and left with some to eat later. We also received the recipe so we can try to cook it ourselves when we return home.

Recommend to visit! Paella tastes better than in a restaurant. Friendly atmosphere. I learned a lot of interesting nuances about cooking. In addition to food, you can enjoy a walk through the bio farm.

This was an excellent experience. Authentic, genuine people with a passion for their farm and the local food. We enjoyed the wine, the food but most of all the people. Mary and Paddy

We had an amazing time today with Maria Jose and Raphael who were both so welcoming of us in to their home. They have the most beautiful farm house with stunning views, we loved every minute.
We came with our 3 year old and our baby and this was no problem at all, Maria Jose even asked if our 3 year old needed anything different to eat.
All of the food was delicious, cheese, meats, olives, mussels and sangria to start. Of course the paella for main course and a selection of cakes from a local bakery with Colombian coffee to finish.
Our 3 year old had fun playing outside with the dogs most of the time.
Very warm and generous people, I couldn’t find anything else like this experience in the area, I highly recommend for a taste of something traditional and authentic.
