On this special culinary and cooking tour of Spain, you will be based in Santiago de Compostela, the historic capital of Galicia on the Atlantic Northwestern coast of Spain. You will get the chance to learn in-depth about the gastronomy of Galicia by cooking side-by-side with an Expert Chef, in the Market of Santiago offering creative cooking in Galicia. The class will be based around traditional ingredients/products of the area.
Apart from the cooking lesson, we will explore the historic monuments and local food market of Santiago, in addition to its surroundings so we can admire the lush inland countryside. Then follow coastal Galicia. We will pass through small pilgrimage and fishing villages, visiting noble Pazos (manors) to see the popular architecture of this region. As well along the way we will make culinary visits to see how the clams are dug up, wine is drank, etc..and many other food-related aspects of this rich land.
This tour is a slow-paced food/wine experience to get a chance to stroll along the ports, seaside promenades and old streets while enjoying exclusive visits like to a winery making the highly-acclaimed Albarino white wines of the D.O. Rias Baixas. We will also dine in a few hand-picked restaurants with a mix of local flavours offering creative dishes based on fine local products, to traditional taverns right near the docks offering an abundance of fresh seafood (Spider Crab, Bay Prawns, Lobster, etc...) caught just that morning... delectable “finger-food”!
