Overview
The activity includes a visit to Loulé's municipal market, one of the liveliest in the Algarve, the purchase of ingredients, and a private cooking lesson at the chef's house, a beautiful town house decorated with the exquisite flair of Paula, a passionate cook and master in the art of hosting.
You will discover the unique flavours of Algarvian cuisine: fresh and crisp vegetables, ripe fruit, fresh cheese, 'chouriços' and an stunning variety of fish and seafood.
Learn how to cook a mouth-watering Cataplana of fish and how to prepare simple and tasty 'Petiscos', traditional appetisers that you can easily replicate at home.Between a glass of wine, a 'petisco' and a chat, it will soon be time to sit around the table and unwind like at home!
This experience is aimed at passionate travelers and foodies who want to delve deeper into local culture and gastronomy. It lies somewhere between a cooking class and a cooking tutorial: you can put your hands to work, or simply watch Paula cook!

What to expect
This is part market tour and part cooking class. We will shop the local fresh ingredients at the market and we'll head to the chef's private home to cook together with Paula, a professional and an amazing story teller.
She knows everyone at the market, frequenting the market since she was a child. Paula has a great food story, as well as a great attachment to Algarvian cuisine that is her home cooking. Paula's feminine and elegant touch adds something truly exceptional to a cooking class, where you enjoy talking and tasting the delicacies cooked but also feel the charm of true Algarvian hospitality.
