What people are saying about Lisbon Metropolitan Area

Miyuki was amazing!! My 15 year old son and I had such a positive, enjoyable experience learning to make Pastel Nata. Miyuki was friendly and engaging. And she definitely knows her stuff! She helped just enough for us to feel successful —but not so much that we couldn’t feel the reward of our efforts. And what a reward it was . Oh my goodness—- Pastel Nata fresh from the oven. All those flaky layers and the perfectly creamy custard… heavenly! The kitchen is clean, bright, and modern. From start to finish the perfect way to spend an evening in Portugal. Miyuki was like a close friend sharing a favorite recipe. I would highly recommend this culinary experience. Book it! You won’t regret it!!

Small group cooking together. The flavor of the ribs was very new to my tastebuds. We were given just the right amount of instruction to participate. It was not too complicated but also we learned somethings... the perfect balance for a vacation activity. For Solo travelers just jump in and introduuce yourself.

We had a great time in our class with Ana. She explained everything about the dishes and shared the exciting history of the dishes. Our boys, 11 and 12, thought it was a fun class. We enjoyed our prepared dishes and had a fun time connecting with other participants.

This is the best pastry I have ever tasted and just had to learn how to make it for when I went back to the states. Definitely recommend this class- fun, informative, and best of all, delicious!!

Great fun, really nice wines, lovely atmosphere. Recommended
