Booking a culinary experience in Málaga can be an exciting journey through Spain’s rich gastronomy. With numerous providers and options available, enjoying a personalized cooking event has never been easier.

Why host a private cooking event in Málaga?

Málaga is more than just beaches and sunshine — it’s a city bursting with flavor, tradition, and culinary soul. Hosting a private cooking event here is the perfect way to connect with the authentic Andalusian lifestyle. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion, planning a unique team-building activity, or simply craving an unforgettable travel experience, a hands-on cooking day brings people together in a meaningful, delicious way.

Private cooking events in Málaga allow you to dive into Spanish culture beyond the typical tourist path. You’ll explore local ingredients, learn traditional recipes passed down through generations, and enjoy the warmth of sharing a home-cooked meal — all in an intimate, relaxed setting. It’s not just an activity; it’s a memory in the making. Contact us. 

What to expect from our private cooking experiences?

At A Cooking Day, every private cooking event is crafted with heart and attention to detail. From the moment you arrive at our charming Andalusian home, you’ll be welcomed like an old friend. We begin with a guided tour through local ingredients — from fragrant olive oil to sun-ripened tomatoes — before rolling up our sleeves to cook together.

Expect laughter, hands-on cooking, storytelling, and of course, incredible food. Our experiences are fully private and tailored to your group’s needs — whether you’re looking for a vegetarian menu, or a relaxed family-friendly day. We keep the vibe intimate and authentic, giving you a true taste of southern Spain.

By the end of the day, you won’t just leave with a full belly — you’ll carry the joy of connection, culture, and cuisine with you. Contact us!

In-home paella events

In-home paella events are a convenient way to enjoy the renowned Spanish dish in the comfort of one’s home. A local cook comes to the client’s residence to handle everything from ingredient procurement to cooking and cleaning. This option is particularly popular for family gatherings or special celebrations, creating a memorable dining experience without the hassle of restaurant logistics.

The cooking day was one of the highlights of our Andalucian visit.
We had a splendid day with Mayte!
We very much enjoyed the whole day. Mayte is a welcoming hostess and she is sympathique, educational and easy to talk with. If you want to know anything about Andalucian tradition you can certainly get to know it through Mayte.
Despite a day full of activity – with cooking and picking fruits in the garden – the pace was pleasant and we felt very comfortable all day long. The ingrediences was locally and ecological and the food was tasty and well-flavoured.
The house and its surroundings are worth a visit all by themselves.

We were with Mayte for a Sunday lunch. We were well welcomed and got a little history about the house and location, we got to meet the family that was very nice. Mayte made us feel welcome and at home. She served delicious food along with excellent wines. The atmosphere was relaxed and informal. This we can recommend most warmly.

The day we spent cooking with Mayte was the highlight of our week’s vacation in Malaga.
The food, conversation, ambience and beautiful scenery were amazing.
Treat yourself to this experience and you will smile every time you look back on it.
Thank you Mayte, you are the best

We were a party of 6 Swedish people who spent a cooking day with Mayte. We had a very pleasant day together with her and her friend, learning about Andalusian cooking and culture at her lovely house. For us who don`t speak Spanish it was very good that Mayte`s English is excellent. We can definitly recommend a visit and will certainly be back to her with other guests.
