Hi My name is Laura Ballester Andani I was Born in Xátiva (Valencia) Spain.

I Learnt how to cook spending time with my grandma and my mum.

After finishing my culinary studies I worked in some Michelin star restaurants around Spain, Italy and Belgium. Until I landed in Sydney 13 years ago. I worked as pastry chef in Ormeggio restaurant for 4 years where I started to fall in love in the process of bread making, there is when I change my career to become a baker. Few year after I stared my small take away food business, EAT WTIH LAU, providing spanish home cooked food to friends and colleagues. I moved to Melbourne in February 2023 where I kept going with the take away food while I was working as a baker. Tough life.

Now I am in Perth and I am starting this new project of cooking classes in a easy and relaxed way. I would like to invite everyone to have an Spanish food cooking experience in own home. After years being dedicated to professional cookery, now is time to relax and teach the easy and fun way of cooking my favourite cuisine, Spanish food.

My aim is to show you all not only how to cook some dishes from my country but also talk about the culinary heritage and the culture behind our cuisine. Sit back, grab a glass of cava (the spanish sparkling) and enjoy this time together cooking the spanish way.
