Wonderful experience and delicious food! - Chrysoula is an incredibly warm person. We were a large group of 18 people and that was no problem at all for her. She was able to accommodate for everyone very well. The cooking lesson was so much fun and the food was incredibly delicious! Thank you again for a wonderful day!

One of a kind cooking experience! - What an exceptional cooking school run by Chrysoula! She and her husband welcomed us into their home and we were made to feel like part of the family. The view from her home is spectacular and the atmosphere is very relaxed. We enjoyed beautiful surroundings and cooked delicious authentic Cretan dishes with fresh locally sourced ingredients. We left with full bellies, happy hearts and new friends. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Crete.

Amazing! Would recommend to anyone - What an amazing experience! It is not just a cooking class, Chrysoula makes sure you feel welcomed and a part of the family. We made so much amazing authentic Greek food. She has a great sense of humour so it was a very fun time. We drank and laughed and ate until we were very full and happy. It was a wonderful day and I would recommend this to everyone.

Cooking with a friend - A day of cooking with your best friend. This is what Chrysoula's experience feels like. You'll be in her garden with beautiful nature around it. We met her family. The whole atmosphere was just wonderful. She is funny and teaches you not only how to cook the recipes, but how to do it from the heart (never enough olive oil!). Highly recommend 🫶

Wonderful experience - Wonderful experience with Chrysoula and her family. Thanks for letting us into your home and showing us the best Cretan hospitality accompanied with the best Cretan food! The cooking class was definately a highlight of our family's trip to Crete and it is highly recommended everyone to have. Hint: make notes, or even better, ask Chrysoula for recipes. You wont regret.

Delightful! - First time to Crete and our first cooking class. The ambiance was relaxing and inviting with a beautiful view of the sea, while Chrysoula's recipes were soul-satisfying. Delicious and fresh meals while the whole experience felt more like a lunch with friends and family. I will be back with my sister!

Great experience! - Me, my brother and my sister booked this cooking class as a surprise for my parents for their 30 year anniversary, the reason we were on Crete. When you arrive you feel at home immediatly, Chrysoula and her husband are very friendly. Together you’ll talk, have fun and make traditional greek/cretan dishes which are amazing! The cooking class is great if you want to learn about the Greek cuisine, meet wonderful people and have a great time with them and your family/friends.
