  • €2,950.00 – 7 days farm to table culinary retreat (single room)

A full-week immersion into Catalan cuisine, Mediterranean culture, and the entrepreneurial craft behind food.

Set in a historic castle in the heart of Alt Empordà, this retreat blends hands-on cooking, local producers, and real-world culinary insight for those who cook with purpose — and those who dream beyond the plate.

This retreat is not only about learning how to cook exceptional Catalan food, with the freshest ingredients. It is about understanding how passion for food becomes a sustainable, meaningful project.
Over seven days, you will explore Catalan cuisine through:
– Daily hands-on cooking sessions
– Direct relationships with fishermen, farmers, cheesemakers and winemakers
– Seasonal, product-driven menus
– Shared meals and long table conversations
– Wine pairings with selected regional wines
– Practical insight into sourcing, menu creation, and storytelling

Everything is experienced organically — in the kitchen, at the market, on the farm, and around the table. No lectures. No slides. Just lived experience.
