Juan was super friendly, responsive and helpful. they didn't only provide a special cocktail for us both, they also had a small birthday cake for him. That alone was amazing. The class itself was held by Debora. She was very kind and we learned so much from her. She created a warm and welcoming atmosphere in which we made some super delicious empanadas.
