What To Expect

Your host will meet you at the stop of the Metro or Bus and from there you will walk towards the location.

Before that, via email, your host will explain the various traditional recipes of the Porto city or if you prefer of the whole country, so you can decide what to have lunch or dinner.

Then he will pass the butcher, fishmonger or supermarket and also by a small organic garden to harvest some products.

Some recipes need preparation in advance like soaking or marinades but if not, the host will take you to the supermarket to buy the ingredients before cooking.

You'll then arrive at the hosts house and start cooking!

You'll receive all explanations and tips to learn how to cook some traditional Portuguese dishes. Meanwhile, you'll taste some delicious appetizers and also enjoy some drinks while the meal is prepared.

After the main dish and dessert you are more than welcome to enjoy a delicious cup of coffee before concluding the workshop.

If the group is bigger than 8 persons, the workshop will be done in a different location and everything will be customized in a similar way.

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
