OK. Here is the dream. Fly to Barcelona, Spain get picked up by the Catacurian Cooking School, leisurely driven to their location, cook like crazy for 6 days, return to Barcelona and cook more.
The 6 day school school sounds intriguing, even though there are several "excursions". There is cooking every one of the six days.
6 - Day Gourmet Food & Wine Experience in El Priorat This culinary vacation program will really allow you to discover first hand why Catalonia and its food have become so popular. With six or seven hands-on classes of approximately three hours each and a combination of restaurant meals and class preparation meals, a very good knowledge of Catalan cuisine is attained. Four visits to local Priorat wine producers and vineyards, along with wine tasting will allow you to discover and appreciate the fantastic DOC Priorat and DO Montsant wines. An official olive oil tasting presentation will let you discover the incredible DO Siurana olive oils. A trip to a local ceramics producer, the Scala Dei monastery, and the Gaudi architecture in Reus will enable you to learn of the areas history as well as indulge in the landscapes of this beautiful and unspoiled region.Sounds good. Then after that back to Barcelona and stay at the Barcelona Rambles Hostel. A single room is ~50 Euros/night.
There is a cooking school, Cook and Taste, with half day courses at 60 Euros. Also, the Catacurian people also teach in Barcelona.Now, the details:
