You will love this. My husband and I took the cooking class. The owner is lovely, funny and so welcoming. We made a delicious meal, from scratch, with complete strangers and had a ball.
Taking a class and learning from local people enriches any holiday and cooking classes with Stella are a special treat. This is the second successful class I have done with Greeking.me and both have been wonderful experiences. Interesting groups from all corners of the earth (Wales, Holland, France Mexico and New Zealand this time) and great Greek recipes guided with Stella's friendly style make a fun afternoon's entertainment.
Stella was fantastic and accommodated my family of 6 perfectly. We learnt so much and enjoyed our beautiful dinner that we cooked at the end.
