...it was one of the highlights of our time in Egypt...the best part was picking up little family secrets you’d never find in a recipe book... It felt like being part of the family - a genuine cultural experience that no restaurant could ever match...

...We'd 100% recommend Chef Jose's paella class to any of our friends and family, and we'd probably even do it as a repeat for ourselves if we ever go back to Valencia! Thanks for a great day, Jose!
