Isabel warmly welcomed our group into her lovely home. We truly enjoyed the wines, appetizers, fish, main course, and company. Isabel is a gem!
I had a great time with Helena! She is very warm, open and friendly. I joined her experience with my early teens. We went to the local butcher shop and supermarket together and then enjoyed chatting and appetizers while cooking together. I especially loved a glass of vinho verde with requeijão de ovelha! I liked this cheese so much that I ended up buying it several times during the rest of my stay in Portugal. For the main course, she asked me in advance what we wanted, and although it was hard to choose as they were all appealing, we decided on the bacalhau dish. It was nice to see how to prepare bacalhau, a traditional ingredient that is an essential part of Portuguese cuisine. Also, since it was right around Easter time, she prepared Easter cookie baking for my daughter and she had fun cutting up the cookies and decorating them with chocolate. Thank you for a lovely relaxing evening!
We had such a great time being hosted by Isabel for dinner. The meal was wonderful (so much delicious food) and the conversation was fantastic. We didn’t stop talking the whole night and learned so much about Portuguese history, geography, culture, wine, and more! I would highly recommend this experience to anyone traveling to Lisbon.
Helena was wonderful. She was very accommodating to our food preferences. She is a warm and welcoming person and was very easy to communicate with to set up the class. It was lovely to experience the cooking class in a local home. It is an experience you will enjoy while you are there and remember for a long time after.
