The Pastel de Nata cooking class was only for the three of us: 2 teenagers and an adult. Everything is super clearly explained, a very nice cook with the photos. Even for 3 people, the lesson and tasting were as for a full group. I highly recommend spending 2 hours actively in Lisbon.

A lot of fun; go I’m willing to learn, taste, and have a good laugh with your fellow students! Get there a little early to have time to socialize, meet everyone, and make some new friends!!
