What a fabulous experience! Our chef was knowledgeable yet relatable. She was kind and witty, even gave us history/origin of the food we were preparing. The day was amazing, I’d recommend to everyone!

Great way to spend an evening.

Amy_Z, May 2024

It was a fun experience. Met new people. Enjoyed the simplicity of preparing the food and the variation of flavors. Pork quality could have been a bit more tender but there was ample other dishes to eat.

Fun way to experience the culture

Tracy_M, May 2024

We had THE BEST time! Great chef and instructor and fun way to learn about the culture. We met some fun people too as we all chopped, diced, fried and cooked together. The recipes were fabulous and we can’t wait to try them at home!

Highly Recommend This Class

Ilbra_A, May 2024

Had such a great time at this cooking class. All the ingredients were already prepared, and the teacher was fantastic. I would definitely take it again and I highly recommend it.

Excellent way to begin our vacation.

We enjoyed meeting people from different areas. Cooking a lovely meal on our first evening in Portugal was truly special.

Karen_W, Feb 2024

The hostesses were very nice and knowledgable and it was fun and interesting to meet the other guests. Each group was from a different country! The location was too far away from the city center and the food was just ok. Much was prepared ahead and we were hoping to learn more about cooking and the culture.

Elise_N, Feb 2024

The cooking class and our instructor were both amazing. However, my ticket and all communication had an incorrect address for the location so I was almost 20 minutes late after calling and getting it straightened out.

Fun and delicious!

Sadie_L, Feb 2024

Such a fun experience! The girls who taught us were so kind and helpful and made it so much fun to be in the kitchen. We loved all the food we made and learning more about its cultural significance. Thank you! We can’t wait to make these recipes at home!

Not to be missed

Teresa_H, Jan 2024

Great instructor/chef, great food, not to be missed experience. No cooking experience needed. Can’t wait to try recipes at home.

Great Experience

Mike_A, Jan 2024

Excellent class with excellent instructor. Fun small group class. You do all the work and enjoy the fabulous food with a small group of travelers. Definitely recommended.

delightful evening

William_S, Jan 2024

Introduction to new techniques like breaded whole fried eggs. Teresa was a great instructor. Informative. Good menu.

Fabulous Experience!

Alicia_G, Jan 2024

Our family had a fabulous afternoon learning how to prepare traditional Portuguese dishes and gleaning from the knowledge of our teachers about food, local norms, and Portuguese history!

Great cooking class with Teresa for our last night in Lisbon!

Joy_B, Dec 2023

Our family (two 20s-age children) had a great time at this cooking class for our last night in Lisbon. We made a deep fried deviled egg appetizer, cod casserole, pork ribs and patis for dessert. It was a fun, interactive group with wine and beer and some laughs. We didn't love the actual food (it isn't our taste), but it was wonderful to learn and taste the different traditional dishes of Lisbon with an expert teacher! (Teresa - she was also great).

Solo traveler approved!

Tina_M, Dec 2023

This was such a fun experience with a great instructor and recipes. Great for a solo traveler and a way to meet new people!

Amazing time in the kitchen

Weekendshutterbug, Dec 2023

Embark on a culinary journey through Lisbon with Theresa, where every moment is a delightful fusion of fun, flavors, and learning! Our 'private' cooking session was a seamless blend of ease and enjoyment, with Theresa's enthusiastic personality illuminating every step of the way. The meticulous preparations ensured a stress-free experience, allowing for an immersive dive into culinary expertise and insider techniques. Each dish was a masterpiece, crafted with unique flavors that tantalized the taste buds and left a lasting impression. The indulgence didn't end there - bringing home the extra Pastel de Nata transformed friends into avid fans of @homecooking_Lisbon from @TorelPalace_Lisbon. Theresa's class isn't just a cooking session; it's an unforgettable celebration of food, culture, and the joy of creating delectable memories in the heart of Lisbon.

What to expect.

David_F, Nov 2023

Learning about Portuguese life and foods. Learn about typical foods in their diet. Our guide was pleasant and informative.

Great learning experience

WMichael_N, Oct 2023

The facility was wonderful and the instructor was so accomplished and communicative. We had the job of preparing the entries from fresh and some premixed ingredients. The food turned out fabulous and we learned some new tips and techniques. Well worth the effort if you love to cook and savor your results.
