“My husband and I had the best time at this class and we couldn’t have asked for a better teacher in Kostas. He was so kind and is clearly a very good chef. He did everything he could to make our class the best 3.5 hours and helped us pack it all up as we couldn’t possibly have eaten all the food we made. I can’t recommend this class highly enough.”

It was a small group of just eight people, and we all had fun cooking, learning, and enjoying the meal together. The whole experience was truly unforgettable — a memory of a lifetime.”

“Very interesting and fascinating. The guide, Anastasia had so many insights and informations to give. The chef didn’t speak English so Anastasia translated for us. They made a very good team. The food was great and easy to make by just following the instructions. We even got a little recipe book for the recipes so we can make it at home. I strongly recommend this activity”
