Perfect cooking class - really loved it! - Amazing cooking class; really liked it, and the food was excellent. The fee was very affordable for this kind of tour. 3 hours and a little bit more. The atmosphere was friendly. There were 6 of us, so we were really happy with this small group. The chef was friendly, talked about local life, and made jokes. So perfect an evening in Athens. Will come back and recommend it for couples and friends.

A fun afternoon - A delicious experience in Athens. We started with a walking tour of the markets, which was so interesting to see. The food we made was amazing and we learned how much honey gets used in Greek dishes, which we still talk about today.

Good course, delicious food - I really enjoyed this course. It was well-organised, good recipes, delicious outcome 😋 The instructor was nice and friendly, we had lots of fun talking with her. The group was quite big but thanks to good structure of the course, everyone could participate in making every dish. It was fun to get to know other participants, too. I can definitely recommend this activity.

An amazing glimpse to the Greek cuisine and culture - Adoniya is the best of the best!!! We had a great experience, actually cooked delicious and traditional dishes. Adoniya guided the group in the best way possible, professional and fun and helped us get a glimpse of the Greek cuisine and culture. We try to take a cooking class in every place we travel to and this one is definitely one of the best.

Fantastic home cooking experience - Thanassius was fun, lively, and energetic. The food was amazing, and we learned things we never knew before. This was by far the highlight of our stay in Athens.

Good group, great instructor, fine food. - This class was so much fun! Our instructor has a lot of energy and a good sense of humor. Of the five dishes we made, one was new to me (the orange cake), and the others--particularly the spanakopita and tsatsiki--had a freshness that I have rarely tasted in restaurants.

A delightful way to encounter Athens. - Thanossou (I’m sure I’ve misspelled it) was an informative and entertaining host and guide. During the tour of market, he shared personal stories about the vendors and his experience with the fresh product purchased for the meal. The menu was authentic and delicious. Each participant helped with the prep and assembly…and of course the consumption of the finished meal. We met guests from other countries and appreciated learning together.

The Absolute Best Cooking Class - We loved every minute of the class and everything we cooked. There are leftovers! We were leaving early the next day so we couldn’t take any.😢. Location is easy to get to by Metro. The facility is clean and inviting. Handwashing sinks in the preparation space so clean hands always. Children from about 8 and up had a great time. We had families, friends, couples, friends and singles. All welcome.
