The Culinary Event Journey
Who are you celebrating with?
Here is how your group's three hours inside GAB LAB will unfold.
Why have a birthday cooking class?
Barcelona has plenty of attractions designed mainly for adults. And plenty designed mainly for children. This one's for everyone. GAB LAB turns food into a shared experience where different generations can participate together.
There's something to see. Something to learn. Something to make. Something to taste. And plenty to eat.
That makes it much easier to keep the whole family interested.
Everyone gets involved.
Nobody is stuck sitting at the end of a restaurant table trying to hear the conversation. You're cooking and experiencing it together.
It breaks the ice.
Mixed friendship groups? Family members meeting for the first time? Cooking gives everyone something to do together.
Food and entertainment in one.
Instead of organizing dinner and then figuring out what everyone should do afterward, the meal becomes the activity.
You learn something.
Leave with authentic Spanish cooking techniques and recipes you can recreate at home.
It's easy to organize.
Take the recipes home and recreate your Barcelona experience together.
It's actually memorable.
Which might be the most important part.
