Perhaps my favorite activity of the trip is the Pintxo Master Class with Chef Alejandro Barcenilla. You enter his kitchen, put on your apron, and get to work preparing a multi-course, small plate meal. You'll do all of the cooking under his instruction, which could be scaling and filleting fish, peeling chestnuts, wielding a blowtorch, or plating the dessert. While you’re there, local farmers will stop by to sell him vegetables or a fisherman will come by with what he caught that morning. If you’re lucky he’ll even send you out to the neighbor’s garden to nip a few tomatoes. When you are done, his staff will serve you the meal in his restaurant, complete with wine pairings. Not too shabby if you ask me.
Space will be limited to 20 people on the trip and it will sell out, so be sure to get your deposits in soon.
