We really enjoyed the cooking class. We learned so much about the market/food selection process as well as the cooking techniques. The wine pairings were perfect!

Enjoyed a fun morning with Carlos. Visited the local market where we purchased local fish and meat for our lunch. Under Carlos’s supervision prepared a scrumptious meal paired with wines and cider which we sat down to enjoy. Highly recommend.

Fun Basque experience. Going to market to pick out the protein was the highlight. Love the creative branding with the spelling of Kookin.

If you're looking for a quality tour that is of great value, then look no further! Chef Carlos is equally an expert and friendly. One of the dishes I made was better than I had in the restaurant! This is a must do when in San Sebastian.

Such an amazing experience! Carlos and Molina took us to the market and explained what ingredients we were going to use and then how to pick them out. Did you know that fish mongers have tricks to make their fish more attractive? Also I learned that using fresh, local ingredients is key to making a wonderful Basque dish. Carlos is a friendly great teacher and has a wonderful , comfortable set up. He pairs wine and sidra (hard d cider) with each course. This was well worth the time and the cost. We will be using what we learned and experience at home. Highly recommend!

Our family (including our 16-month-old grandson) had the absolute pleasure of spending our second day in San Sebastián with Carlos visiting the market and cooking Basque cuisine. Our expectations were exceeded! Carlos was the perfect host/chef/tour guide; he graciously welcomed us and met our needs (particularly given our grandson), efficiently, clearly, and with a touch of humor, shared cooking techniques and, most surprisingly introduced us to the rich history of San Sebastián and its markets. To top it off, the food we prepared, under his direction, was delicious (and grandson approved😉). We highly recommend Carlos and the Basque cuisine experience.

This was a great experience! The food was delicious and there was a lot of it. I really enjoyed going to the market and understanding what I was looking at and how to choose different meats. Everything was explained clearly so we could all cook a tasty meal!

Karen_F

Carlos was very personable and professional in his presentation. The food that we cooked was delicious and his choice of drink pairings was perfect. Carlos gave us a lot of interesting and historical information about the Basque region.

Modern, spotless facility. Friendly and informative host that gave clear instructions. Great quality food (some of which were purchased at the market beforehand). Carlos is clearly passionate about what he does. Really enjoyed it!

Thank you Carlos for an entertaining and amazing cooking class. The market visit was very educational and l learnt a lot about buying fish. Then what a fun experience your class was. You answered all out questions and managed to make us all feel like professional chefs. Your love of food shone through as you guided us through the class. I can’t wait to get kookin!! Thankyou
