A Equipa
“Acho engraçado quando a maior parte dos meus colegas de profissão dizem que cozinham desde tenra idade e que começaram bem cedo entre tachos e frigideiras. Eu não e sinto que comecei no momento certo! Eu sempre gostei de ser a ‘cozinheira’ dos amigos, mas nada com muita classe ainda que já com boas críticas da parte dos mesmos. É aí que me expresso entre o sabor e a criatividade e encontrei na academia a oportunidade de estar com pessoas diferentes entre si e das quais absorvo e partilho conhecimentos chegando a casa de coração cheio! Sou apaixonada por food design e confesso que a meu ver até uma simples bifana pode ser servida de uma forma quase artística.”
“Sou apaixonada por cozinha e formação! Só já perto dos 30 é que tive coragem para arriscar tudo e atirar-me de cabeça ao mundo da cozinha. Não me arrependo nem 1 min! Já participei em projectos brutais e continuo a aprender todos os dias! Agora dedico-me de coração a um sonho tornado realidade, a Lisbon Cooking Academy.”
“Apaixonada por culinária desde cedo, aprendi com a minha Avó a dar os primeiros passos na área, com pratos típicos e técnicas clássicas, do Norte ao Sul do País. Quando a Ana Viçoso, antiga professora, me fez o convite para fazer parte da Academia, não hesitei – unir a paixão pela cozinha com o contacto direto com clientes, desenvolver e partilhar experiências, e trabalhar com uma equipa com a mesma visão? Estava encontrado o nicho dentro da área, e aqui sou muito feliz!“
“Nascida em Moçambique e crescida no Porto, cheguei a Lisboa há 10 anos em busca de um sonho de trabalhar na área da Gastronomia. Depois do mestrado em Ciências Gastronómicas tirei o curso de cozinha, onde conheci a Ana Viçoso e daqui nasceu uma grande amizade. Agora, aceitei o desafio da Ana para integrar a equipa da Lisbon Cooking Academy e não poderia estar mais feliz! Sou eu quem recebe os vossos contatos e organiza com a nossa equipa de Chefs todas as atividades mas estou sempre a postos para colocar a jaleca!”

We are vegan wanting to try Portugal’s famous egg tarts the pastel de natas.
Lisbon Cooking Academy has a large modern able to handle... read more groups from 2-8 people.
We took the Vegetarian Meal class and they were very accommodating to our food requests due to allergies and vegan options.
Our vegan meal included:
1. Tomatada - Portuguese tomato stew (sans the traditional egg)
2. Pexinchos da horta - green bean Tempura (yes, tempura originated in Portugal) and a sauce to dip them in.
3. Pastel de Natas - eggless vegan version.
Also included was a lovely bread (so good with the tomatada) and wine to top off our meal.
This company was so accommodating and our chef was very friendly and informative. Unexpected bit of new knowledge was the way to mince garlic for flavor minus the garlic breath.
The cooking classes are overwhelmingly traditional Portuguese meat and fish dishes, but our experience is that their vegetarian and vegan dishes are great too.
Best of all, we have the recipes to make again at home. I’m making the pastel de natas for our next holiday dessert.
Such a wonderful experience!
Would recommend to anyone who wants a great learning experience and exceptional meal.

Transformative experience + enjoyable night - We had an incredible experience. Ana tailored her approach to the skillset & interests of our group. And went above and beyond to share information that I personally found very... read more interesting about cooking techniques and background.
We learned practical skills to take home, got inspired to expand our cooking repertoire and most of all had such a lovely experience that will last in our memories for a long time to come. I have done cooking classes around the world and I can not recommend the authenticity and knowledge that Ana brings enough.
Truly a transformative experience.

Luckily I found the Lisbon Cooking Academy who had a small class available on Friday afternoon during our trip in September. Our class was just a small group of four which was perfect for getting a hands-on experience with Chef Ana Viçoso. Ana did a great job of explaining the process and allowing us to participate in each step of making our pastéis de nata. After we were done, we got to try the results we made – they were delicious - and got to take some of them with us to go. Afterwards, we also got an electronic copy of the Lisbon Cooking Academy Cookbook which includes the recipe we made along with many other Portuguese specialties. If you’re interested in a learning how to make Portuguese custard tarts, sign up for this class while you are in Lisbon!

Fantastic Experience and Delicious Results - I took the vegan pastel da nata cooking class with three other participants this evening while in Lisbon on travel. The facility is convenient to get to and is very... read more clean and comfortable. I was greeted by the owner Ana and had some great conversations while waiting for the other participants to arrive. Ana has a great personality and she makes everyone feel comfortable and part of a family while she teaches us. Everyone participates and it’s very fun. I learned new techniques and was extremely happy with the experience. Ana’s style let me find the confidence to make my own pastel da nata. Aside from the enjoyable class, the best part of the experience was sitting down and tasting our results. Absolutely delicious, perfectly crunchy puff pastry and smooth flavorful custard. I loved everything about this course and will return for another course next time I am in Lisbon. Most of all, a warm Thank You to Ana.
