I had such fun at Lola’s cooking class. She is an excellent chef and teacher. I highly recommend this class if you are interested in learning about traditional Spanish Tapas. And you don’t have to be an experienced cook as I am definitely a novice cook.

We have never done anything like this before in any of our travels. We wanted to step out of our comfort zone and we are SO glad we did! Lola was instructive, friendly, fun, and informative with any questions we had regarding the history and origins of the food. The interactive experience was fun and the food and wine were delicious! The atmosphere was welcoming and low key. We each participated in the preparation of the food and enjoyed eating it! Book this experience!

We made ham croquettes, Russian Salad, Black Rice and Ajoarriero Cod. It was excellent and very hands-on. Loleo was very engaging, was full of interesting information and she never let our wine glasses go empty. We were full in the end with all the tasty and wonderful food. Coffee and chocolate were served as a secret surprise at the end and of course we ended up with the recipes. I really enjoyed meeting everyone in the class and met people from Netherlands, Australia and Mexico.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed the 3+ hour class and making the delicious food - ham croquettes, Russian salad, cod with peppers, tomatoes, onions And the black ink squid paella. Lola was very engaging, provided helpful tips about the food and Spanish culture, and served lovely wine to accompany the tasty food and yummy chocolates. We will definitely make these at home - the recipes are not complex and Lola provided tips as we cooked them together. We just ordered a grater that Lola used to easily get the pulp from tomatoes (thanks Lola!)- so much easier than boiling and peeling tomatoes..
This was a special experience and we highly recommend it.

Loleo Tapa class is the best value for your money and one the best experiences you'll have in Madrid. The chef is a superb teacher, great sense of humor, wonderful storyteller who is at the top of her game. I enjoyed this class enormously and highly recommend it

Absolutely incredible experience. I learned so much about cooking in general, not just cooking Spanish dishes. She kept the wine and history lessons flowing (amazing wine btw) and we cooked some amazing dishes. The best paella (sorry, black rice) I have had in Spain so far.
I highly recommend her for a cooking class, and she also does private dinners!!

It was an incredible and different experience. Super recommended to do with the family. I went with my daughters, we had a great time, we learned a lot about Spanish cuisine and we had a delicious dinner. Lola, apart from being an extraordinary chef, is super kind, attentive and friendly. It makes you feel at home and creates a super pleasant atmosphere.
The place is very nice and super clean. And everything is very well organized and ready to cook, dine, drink wine and meet new people.
Thank you Lola for this great experience

I can cook croquettes!! Also paella, cold potato salad & cod 😁 The class was low-key, relaxed, and fun! Learning how to prepare raw squid for the paella was definitely a highlight as I have almost no experience with preparing seafood. Wine glasses were kept full, conversation kept flowing, and the afternoon finished with an amazing espresso. If you love tapas & cooking, do not miss this!!

What a fun and informative class! Lola was so kind and patient with all of our questions and provided a very warm and welcoming experience! We came away with happy full bellies and a new appreciation for paella and bacalao! We learned how to clean and prepare calimari, how to make croquettes and Russian salad, and made new friends along the way. Lola's communication prior to the class was perfect! We ended up staying over 4 hours for the class and didn't feel rushed or as though we needed to wrap up the evening. I highly recommend this experience! Thank you, Lola!

The 3.5 hours we spent with Lola were the best hours we spent in Spain. We genuinely learned so much and will take the valuable information Lola gave us back with us to the United States. I cannot recommend this cooking class enough!
(Also, you will eat ALOT and drink a decent amount of wine. So, prepare accordingly.)

Hi, is this class for adults only? I have 2 children ages 13 and 17 and we would like to do this class together as a family. Also, can we do not eat shrimp, beef and pork items. Can that be accomodated?

It might not be terrific for teenagers unless they have a strong interest in cooking. You can ask Lola if she can handle your food restrictions or not.
