    Class and food were amazing plus we get the recipes! We made our own phyllo for cheese pie. Learned how to drain cukes for tzatiki, fill and roll dolmas and how to spice moussaka. Chef and assistant were both charming and patient with easy to follow instructions. Other class members were fun. We laughed a lot and enjoyed the cooking and eating, sharing our creations with a glass of wine. Can’t recommend this class enough.

    We had a wonderful time learning with Marie. She is very knowledgeable and patient. Each dish was prepared with great instruction and outcome was delicious! The location was in an interesting part of town and a little difficult to locate (maybe it was just us being overwhelmed), but Marie was quick to find us and start our lesson. It was a great day!

    We enjoyed our cooking class very much. It was fun, simple to follow, enjoyable and we learned a few things. The chef's leading it were great. The food was awesome and we enjoyed the people we met who cooked alongside us. It was a great experience.

    We did the lunch booking. The ladies did a great job explaining everything and keeping the work area clean so we were able to transition easily between dishes. Everything was timed perfectly so when we finish the last dish it was time to eat. We made 5 dishes and they all worked well with each other to make an amazing lunch.

    We had such a memorable time. Marilena Was super sweet, kind and attentive. We made the best food we had while in Greece. She even sent us the recipes afterwards to make at home. We recommend doing this!
