Evening Tapas Cooking Workshop
Spend an unforgettable evening in Alicante learning to cook authentic Spanish tapas in a real local kitchen — and enjoying every bite you make.
Our Tapas Cooking Workshop is a relaxed, hands-on experience where food and culture come together. Guided by a local chef and host, you’ll prepare a full tapas dinner using fresh, top-quality ingredients sourced that same morning from the Central Market of Alicante.
Your tapas menu includes:
Tortilla de Patatas – Classic Spanish omelette made with potatoes, eggs, and olive oil.
Gazpacho – A refreshing cold tomato soup with vegetable, garlic, and olive oil. A summer classic.
Mussels with Local Seasoning – Fresh mussels steamed with Mediterranean spices.
Delicias de Elche – Sweet dates wrapped in crispy bacon — the perfect sweet-savory tapa.
Chorizo a la Sidra – Spicy Spanish sausage simmered in natural cider.
Pan con Tomate & Allioli – Rustic bread with fresh tomato and homemade garlic allioli.
Torrija with Turrón Ice Cream – Caramelized brioche paired with local nougat ice cream.
The class takes place in a real, fully operating kitchen — not a touristy set, but the same space where locals come to eat every day. You’ll cook, learn, and then sit down with your fellow participants to enjoy a homemade dinner and a glass of sangría.
Whether you’re a passionate foodie, a curious traveler, or just looking for a fun and delicious evening activity, this workshop is the perfect way to taste Alicante like a local.
Vegetarian, gluten-free, and allergy-friendly options are available with advance notice.

Step 1: Shopping! We meet at the Central Market where we will spend an hour approx. buying buy the best quality ingredients needed.
Step 2: 5´ walk to the cooking venue.

Step 4: Eat and drink, salud! We will have lunch all together the Paella, Sangria and the aperitifs we have cooked.
Other than the Paella and the Sangría, you will also have traditional hight quality aperitifs which are: Alicante tomato salad (with traditional salted fish), cold meets from Pinoso (a region in Alicante province) and Iberian ham (jamón ibérico).
