Highlights

Akadimou 49 - After introducing ourselves we welcome you with a local liqueur.
Next we will go to the kitchen to cook under my guidance. After cooking and while waiting for the food to cook in the oven, we learn some Greek traditional dances .
When the food is ready, we sit all together at the table to enjoy our meal with local drinks like ouzo, tsipouro, retsina, answering any questions you have and discussing about the city of Thessaloniki, the customs and traditions of our country.
It is a very good opportunity not only to learn how to cook traditional Greek food but also to discover how a Greek family lives.
Ideal experience for team building, families, groups and singles.
Welcome to our house!! Please inform me for any allergies or vegan - vegetarian and gluten free .

Authentic Greek Memories - I cannot say enough good things about my experience with this cooking class! It's no lie that the food is incredible in Greece. We spent the afternoon/evening learning how to make a variety of dishes with Dora and her helpful and knowledgeable daughter Daphne, who welcomed us into their home for this wonderful experience. Everything was made from scratch, with local and fresh ingredients. Since this experience, we have brought these recipes back to Canada and have shared these authentic greek dishes with friends and family.

Over the top fun - Fabulous evening with a beautiful family. Not only did I get a chance to prepare and cook moussaka but also got introduced to other Greek dishes that I have tried. Highly recommend this class for anyone wanting to learn about Greek food, see how locals live, and to enjoy life.

Tasty traditional local experience - We were excited to learn how to cook traditional food on our vacation in Greece and this experience exceeded our expectations. Our tour guide Dora, welcomed us into her home where we were instructed by her and her sweet daughter Daphne on a variety of courses. We learned how to prepare a main course, an appetizer, tzatziki dip, salad, and dessert. The view from her patio of the city and the sea. We were warmly welcomed by her family and appreciated the entire experience.

Great, enjoyable experience - This was a great experience! We felt very welcome from the start. We were guested by a lovely, warm family who shared their home, knowledge and time with us. We learnt how to prepare multiple Greek dishes from starters to dessert. There was also an opportunity to learn a traditional dance! We then enjoyed the food we cooked alongside traditional drinks. Very personalised experience, would highly recommend. Big thank you again to the family for enabling us to experience this 😁
