About Me
I’m Susana Pimentel, the person behind AZCOOK – Azeitão Cooking Studio, a space created to bring people together through food, learning and shared experiences.
For me, cooking is about much more than following a recipe. It’s about getting hands-on, understanding the ingredients, learning new techniques and, most importantly, enjoying the process. At AZCOOK, I love creating a welcoming and relaxed environment where everyone feels comfortable getting involved, asking questions and discovering something new.
I’m passionate about bringing people together around the kitchen table and making every workshop a memorable experience — from the first preparation to the final bite.
Whether you’re looking to learn new cooking skills, explore Portuguese food and traditions, or simply spend a great time with friends, family or colleagues, I look forward to welcoming you to AZCOOK in Azeitão.
