Try a Cooking Class in Barcelona

When you visit a city that you have never seen before, you have a tendency to visit the typical tourist destinations.  Maybe it’s perusing a museum, a site of historical significance or a tourist trap (try and forgo those…).  Maybe you will avoid the tourist traps but you inevitably do many things that are on the beaten path.  Whatever your adventures may be, you always want to have an overall cultural, historical and culinary experience.  That is the main reason many of us travel.  For the experience.  For us, there is no more important task at hand than to immerse ourselves in the food experience: the taste of local dishes and specialty beverages. 

When Lauren and I  were in Spain we had the chance to try a cooking class in Barcelona at the bcnKITCHEN, a local cooking school.  The workshop included a morning of shopping and an afternoon of cooking.   I have to admit, being a first-time traveller to Barcelona, I was not keen on spending the better part of a day in a kitchen cooking.  Was I ever wrong… this had to be one of the best experiences that we had travelling together.  There is nothing like learning how to cook an authentic Catalan meal to inspire you to take a little bit of Barcelona culture and try it at home.
