Clase de cocina cretense y cena: noche en una casa de Rethymno

Absolutely the best experience in Greece. Learning to make numerous different dishes, fresh cheese, pastries. We have been in Greece for 2 weeks after this visit and this was the best dinner experience. Anyone going to Crete should try this out . The couple was amazing. Very personal experience. Not to many people as we only had 3 that day. We got a huge takeaway containers to go home with as well as fresh olive oil and herbs which we made good use of. Thanks so much!

Such a wonderful couple that go out of their way to provide you with a wonderful cooking and dining evening . Everything was delicious. They both put a lot of time, hard work and love into what they do. The home and gardens were to die for! And even as we did some of the preparing plates of samples kept coming out from the wood fire oven. I highly recommend this experience, it will not disappoint! I loved walking through the herb gardens and learning all the new uses and the fragrance of every plant was amazing.

This week we had the unforgettable experience of a cooking class, and subsequent feast, with these welcoming hosts. From the moment we arrived on the property, I was overcome with the potent fragrance that filled the air, the fresh herbs in Androniki’s garden (and in her cooking). We were a group of 8 women, and this evening together was one of my best travel memories ever, and I’ve been to many, many countries. The class itself was perfectly planned and prepped, and Androniki and her husband, Pantelis, had choreographed everything beautifully. All of the dishes were made from fresh local ingredients, many from their garden. We had a tour of the astonishing gardens, and cooked numerous Greek dishes, each more delicious than the previous one. As we cooked, Pantelis would ring a cowbell, and then appear with a surprise appetizer, that he cooked behind the scenes; spinach and onion pies, crispy fried potato skins, and more. We ate together as a big family, and our hosts couldn’t been more gracious and kind. They packed up all the leftovers for us, and even prepared some decisions cheese pancakes for our breakfast the next morning, to be slathered in honey! All in all, I enthusiastically recommend this lovely experience, not only for lovers of delicious and authentic food, but also for the deeply personal and warm connection with a Greek family and their land. Exquisite!

We have done cooking classes in the past and this was by far the best and most authentic. Really loved getting to spend time at their home, tour the garden, and cook/eat delicious food. Can’t wait to try the recipes at home!

We had a wonderful evening preparing an absolutely delicious meal with our hosts & other participants. We all worked on each dish while we learned the secrets of making such fabulous Creten food. We all enjoyed the meal together, family style & shared stories with everyone I would give our experience more than five stars if I could. Highly recommended
