I came all the way from Malaysia for a medical observership at one of the hospitals in Seville. I have always loved history, but I did not know where to begin. It is not like attending a conference, where the pace is lighter and you can relax a little. An observership can be tiring, and I thought I would just focus on my medical training during the weekdays. But God always has His own plan. I believe our lives are made of countless layers of fate, delicately woven together in ways we cannot see. One of those layers brought a beautiful person into my life, Dr. Sonsoles. On my first day at the hospital, she warmly introduced herself and invited me to join Paella Legacy, a program run by her husband, Fernando. As I learned more about them, I could not help but smile at how fate works. Years ago, fate brought Sonsoles and Fernando together in love and partnership. And now, in 2025, that same thread of destiny led me to meet her, a friend whose husband happens to be a wonderful chef with a heart of gold. At first, I was shy to accept the invitation. I told her I am Muslim and it might be difficult to find halal food. But Fernando, with his years of experience and thoughtful heart, had already prepared halal chicken. He has cooked more than 2,200 paellas in his life, and he knew exactly how to make everyone feel included. After work, I walked to the meeting place, still asking myself if I should really go. But it turned out to be one of the most memorable evenings of my life. Fernando and Sonsoles do everything with such passion and sincerity that you can feel it in every moment you spend with them. I was deeply touched by their kindness, their stories, and the whole experience. Whenever I travel in Europe, I usually just look for kebab, Arab, or Indian halal food. I knew almost nothing about paella. Coming from a family that runs a restaurant, and with a mother who is one of the best cooks I know, it is not easy for something to impress me. Yet this was truly one of the best meals and experiences I have ever had. Fernando is not only a great chef but also a storyteller. I loved every piece of history he shared, every small detail and tip. The place itself, near beautiful historical sites, added to the magic of the evening. I will never forget this experience, and I will never be able to repay the kindness of Dr. Sonsoles and Fernando. I pray that God blesses both of you and your family with the best in this life and the next. To all my Muslim and Malaysian friends, if you ever come to Seville, please do not miss this unforgettable experience. Paella Legacy is more than just a meal. It is a tradition made with love, sincerity, and soul.
I signed up for the paella class with my two teenage daughters. It was intended to be a group class but at the end it was just us and Fernando. As we entered his roof terrace everything was laid out beautifully ready for us to start and the table set with snacks and welcome drinks. His charming nature made us feel welcome and at ease right away and I must say that the views were spectacular from the roof terrace. A prime setting overlooking the majestic Cathedral. Each of us got several turns actively preparing and cooking the large paella under Fernando’s guidance but ultimately it was us doing the cooking ( with some meticulous previous prep by Fernando). During the cooking process everything was explained in detail and extra hints provided. I can confidently say it was the best and most authentic paella we ever tasted with the perfect socorra. Truly yummy! Whilst it could be argued that the experience is somewhat pricey, when taking into consideration the amount of work and effort he puts into it and how much attention you get, it’s truly worth it. Many a times I have taken cooking classes on holidays but right away forgotten the process afterwards. This time it seems edged in my mind because of the way we were guided and the hands on approach. I wish you much success in future Fernando. Thank you for the amazing evening and we hope to return again for a repeat.
Excellent one-on-one cooking class where we learned how to make the perfect chicken paella. I can’t wait to make it at home with my family so everyone can enjoy the Spain cuisine! Very interactive and a perfect time of night for great pictures. Fernando is a professional cook and his energy was contagious.
What an incredible evening. Fernando has taken the act of cooking a meal, and turned it into an evening filled with new friends, wine, and experiencing the joy and history of paella. And the location… just a few minutes walk from the Cathedral with what must be one of the most beautiful views in the city.
We had the best time learning to cook paella with Fernando! The views are amazing, hospitality is top notch, and the paella is as delicious. Thank you for an incredible experience, definitely a highlight of our trip to Sevilla!
