Who will be teaching?

MariaMaria Yebra is a Spanish expat who has been living in Melbourne for the past 7 years. She loves cooking and baking (she has a cupcake making blog cupcaketeer.com) but above all else she enjoys eating the food she creates! She has tried most Spanish tapas bars around Melbourne but still craves for a simple “pincho de tortilla” Spanish-style.

In Spain, Maria worked as a kitchen assistant for a catering company renowned for their reinvention of tapas and later on applied these concepts to her family’s business a rural cottage/hotel catering for out of the box weddings and events. Now she works in marketing and communications but always enjoys a good cooking session.
