A new cooking school and dining experience has opened in Huntsville, offering residents a taste of authentic Spanish cuisine. Sobremesa occupies the former Raphael’s Table location and is now hosting classes for anyone eager to learn Spanish cooking techniques. The grand opening date will be announced soon.
A taste of Spain in Huntsville
Sobremesa takes its name from the Spanish tradition of lingering at the table after a meal to share stories, laughter, and connection. The founders, Haley and Fernando, emphasize that their classes are about more than recipes—they aim to build community and celebrate the joy of sharing food.
Students can expect to explore fresh ingredients, simple yet authentic techniques, and the cultural stories behind each dish. Each session is designed to create memorable experiences, allowing participants to leave with skills, memories, and a deeper appreciation for Spanish cuisine.
Classes, consulting, and private events
Sobremesa offers a variety of programs, including:
Cooking classes for beginners and advanced cooks.
Culinary consulting for chefs and aspiring restaurateurs.
Private events and custom classes for gatherings and celebrations.
Special workshops to explore advanced techniques and new flavors.
The people behind Sobremesa
Fernando brings a wealth of culinary experience, including founding three bakeries in Madrid that focus on organic sourdough and pastries, while Haley contributes her passion for connecting people through food. Together, they aim to create a space where meals are not just prepared—they are experienced, shared, and celebrated.
