Vegan Greek cooking class with resident chef was absolutely delightful! She couldnâ€™t have been more friendly, patient, gracious & helpful. I was the only actual vegan out of the 5 in the class. The Greek food we prepared & ate was â€œto die forâ€! And Everyone was very impressed! (This definitely ranks as a HIGHLIGHT of my time in Athens! Right up there with the famous historical sites, this cooking school should NOT be Missed!) I canâ€™t stress enough what a wonderful experience as well as an unbelievable learning & eating experience!!! The 3 hr class passed so quickly - Donâ€™t Miss Taking a Class while youâ€™re in Athens! ( They have other classes besides a Greek menu.) Thank you again chef Alexandra, for a wonderful evening! Pros: 1. Alexandraâ€™s friendly teaching & professionalism, 2. Moussaka , delicious dips, 3. The delightful dessert Cons: 1.NONE!â€¦A definite TREAT!

I had an amazing Greek vegan cooking class where we prepared a variety of traditional starters, mains, and dessertsâ€”all of which were absolutely delicious! The instructor was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, creating a warm and interactive atmosphere. She encouraged collaboration between participants, making the experience both fun and socialâ€”and of course, the complimentary wine was a delightful touch! Though Iâ€™m not vegan (and most of the group wasnâ€™t either), the recipes were so flavorful that no one missed the dairy or meat. Plus, the instructor mentioned how easy it is to adapt them for non-vegan versions, adding cheese or other ingredients if desired. At the end of the session, we were emailed all the recipes to recreate the dishes at home, which was a thoughtful bonus. Highly recommend this class to anyone, whether vegan or not, who loves Greek food and a fun, hands-on experience!

Brilliant, informative and fun I totally loved this class. Resident chef Dimitra has an impressive knowledge of vegan food. I am not vegan but I will definitely be making many of these dishes in the future. I feel that I learned so much during the morning, particularly as the class was completely hands on. Dimitra was both a brilliant teacher and host Thank you

This was a great way of learning about local cuisine whilst fulfilling a vegan diet. We were part of a group of 5 and made the majority of the menu between us, helping each other out on some dishes. Our resident chef Mirka was very friendly and welcoming whilst also having lots of tips on how to complete our dishes and add extra flourishes along the way. Would highly recommend this as a fun holiday activity - equally enjoyable if you came solo as it's a communal experience.
