Market to Table: Market tour and cooking class

Your Market to Table experience with Bear on Bike takes you to the famous La Boqueria market on La Rambla. In order to keep things personal and to respect producers and local shoppers at the market, the experience is limited to eight participants. At the market you'll learn about local culinary customs and how to pick the best local and seasonal produce, plus you get to sample local cheese, ham and olive oil before heading back to the the kitchen. Once there, you'll learn everything from Catalan basics and Mediterranean staples to healthy alternatives and fancy techniques to impress your friends. When the work is done you head out onto the adjoining garden terrace to enjoy the meal, accompanied by local organic wines. Expect to spend about four and a half hours on the entire experience. Meeting place may vary, please consult the Bear on Bike website or ask your hosts.
