Overview

Let your taste buds do the traveling during this 6-hour cooking class in Mykonos. Make an authentic Greek meal and then savor it with your fellow cooks, all under the friendly and helpful eye of a professional. Learn how to make classics such as stuffed peppers and spinach pie, and wash it all down with wine and drinks. There is also the option to add a farm or island tour or a walking tour of Mykonos Town. Don’t miss this chance to learn about an important part of Greek culture and become a member of a true Mykonian family.

‘Spiti’ means home – and the “Mykonian Spiti” is our home that you are welcome at, during this cooking experience. Although this activity highlights the traditional factor of the Mykonian lifestyle, on the other hand a “traditional” description of its “programme” hardly does it justice. This may sound vague, but during these 6 hours (approximately) you will experience the traditional Greek way of life, the culture, the Greek art of cooking. It is not what you will do, it is mostly how you will do it. During this time you will learn tips and cooking methods that have made Mykonian Spiti, Mykonos and Greece, loved by its friends and visitors, but most importantly you will instil the hospitality and the everyday lifestyle of a traditional Mykonian family.

There are many details to the “class” that we could share with you but the essence is that as you can see, this is much more than learning to cook a fabulous Greek meal. It is also about family, conversation, food and culture. It is quality time in the home of someone close to you, finding yourself in their kitchen helping to cook, enjoying the experience of meeting new people and honouring us by becoming a part of our family.

I did the island tour and cooking class! The island tour took us to a church, beach, monastery (extra 2 euros), and we had lunch at the farm. I wouldn’t do the island tour if you have your own car and you are at peak season (I would go to the beach instead), but there was nothing to do in Mykonos in March so it was nice to explore. Our tour guide Christine was really nice. My favorite part of my whole trip in Greece was the cooking class, it is definitely worth it! It was just me and a couple which was perfect because we all got to participate and get to know each other, I can’t imagine doing it with 20 people which is the max. It is in the owners home which is beautiful. Our instructor was super friendly and great at walking us through everything and giving us great tips! We got to make homemade stuffed tomatoes, spanakopita, risotto, tzatziki, Greek salad! It was all delicious and so much food

We were a group of 6. Because it was the end of the season, it was just the 6 of us in this class which was perfect. It was so much fun-well taught, entertaining, and the food was amazing.
