Catalan cuisine is in a category of its own within the realms of other Mediterranean foods. Dishes such as escalivada, esqueixada, or Bacalla a la llauna, simple things such as pa amb tomaquet, and famous desserts like
crema catalana are but some of the specialties you will learn how to make during your
gastronomical holiday.
Apart from its fabulous Priorat wines, this area also produces a
delicious olive oil made from arbequina olives. This oil is produced right here in
El Masroig, and its acidity is no more than 0.3 degrees, a true sign of quality.
Alicia and Jonathan will welcome you as if you were part of the family. From the moment you arrive at the Barcelona airport, where we will pick you up, you will not have to worry about anything but enjoying a relaxing vacation. Each day you will learn
how to cook a new Catalan dish. Daily excursions will enable you to discover most of the Priorat and visit its
vineyards, wine producers, and olive oil presses.
This program will enable you to learn the basics of
Catalan cuisine as you will have a total of six classes of approximately three hours duration each. The
fourteen meals you will be having during this time, five of which are in restaurants, will allow you to sample a wide variety of different
Catalan dishes. The Priorat wines will no longer be a secret to you after the wine tasting session at Can Miquelet del Mano, and the many trips to vineyards and a wine museum. You will not only love the olive
 oil that you will be using on a daily basis, but you will also get a chance to see how it is made.
The daily excursions will unveil most of the Priorat and its history so that when the time comes to leave, you will truly feel you have discovered the
essence of this beautiful region. This is also your vacation and so we want you to have time to relax as well, and if you have any requests for a change in the planned schedule, we will surely try and accommodate your needs.

We had a fabulous time on the Camino de Santiago! Everything worked as
it should have and all contact we had with anyone associated with
EATours was very friendly, very helpful and totally professional. You
can be sure that we will be passing the word. A real pleasure...
