The Culinary Event Journey
Your Barcelona Culinary Party Step-by-Step
Here is how your group's three hours inside GAB LAB will unfold.

EXPLORE
Depending on your schedule, begin with Barcelona's food culture and discover authentic Spanish ingredients. Fresh flavor and considerably more interesting than meeting outside another tourist trap.

SANGRIA
Now we're getting somewhere. Head into the kitchen for an interactive sangria-making workshop alongside Spanish tapas. Make it, taste it, toast the guest of honor, and repeat responsibly.

THEN YOU EAT
