Reviews

"If your palette prefers Spanish cuisine, Dan Pashman, the host of The Sporkful podcast, recommends taking this paella-making class led by chef Tania Lopez. He actually doesn’t call it a cooking class, “but more an interactive experience.” That’s because, in addition to the cooking lesson, you also get “a flamenco concert,” according to Pashman, who assures this entertainment does not dilute the lesson’s culinary wisdom. “She knows the cuisine inside and out and her passion for the food is contagious,” he says of Lopez. Like the Geffen Stayhouse’s Indian cooking class, you can pay a lower price of $55 to take the class and receive a list of required ingredients and equipment; or you can pay $120 and get all the ingredients you need — along with a bottle of wine and a paella pan — delivered to your door ahead of the class."

“The Paella Class is the best date night event I have attended virtually or otherwise. The Chef, the kit, and the entertainment were absolutely amazing!"

“A fun, high energy, entertaining night of culinary learning - coming from a guy whose cooking skills are very limited. Talk about a confidence booster and delicious dinner! It is great for friends gathering, date night, or team building among colleagues”

"Thank you for creating a memorable experience for my colleagues and me! I became worried when thinking about how we could observe Hispanic Heritage month during the pandemic since we were unable to be together. I am thrilled to have partnered with you and your team. You by far exceeded my expectations and helped to make this an amazing experience. You and your team made everything so convenient and easy for us. You truly created an event that allowed us to celebrate Hispanic culture through education, food, dance and drinks. Even though we were unable to physically be together for this event we all felt so connected."

“My husband and I took a wonderful paella cooking class with Coqui the Chef around the Christmas holiday. The class was an immersive experience, bringing the food, culture and music of Spain right into our kitchen. The class was taught online with the engaging Chef Tania, who walked the class through the steps of making a delicious paella. We received a paella kit from Chef Tania that had everything we needed to get started. During the class, we took musical excursions to Spain and listened to live Spanish guitar. All in all, we had a great time and great food. And the best part, paella has become a regular meal in our home. Thank you, Chef Tania!”

“What a fun experience! It was personable. The chef made everyone feel included and guided at a pace that we could keep up with! The results were fabulous. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal and the laughter! We will do another class anytime! Thank you Chef Tania”
