Hands-on Greek Cooking Class in Athens with Acropolis View & Meal
Description
This is not a demonstration-style class. You will actively cook a complete Greek meal from scratch, using real techniques found in Greek homes A highlight of the experience is learning how to stretch and roll handmade phyllo pastry — a traditional skill rarely taught in most classes. Menus are flexible and based on seasonality and guests’ preferences, so each class feels slightly different, like a real Greek kitchen. What makes this experience special: • Fully hands-on cooking — you cook, not just watch • Small groups (maximum 16 guests) for a personal experience • Prepare a complete Greek menu (6 dishes) from scratch • Learn authentic techniques, including handmade phyllo pastry • Relaxed, friendly atmosphere • Enjoy everything you prepare with Greek wine At the end of the class, you will receive the recipes so you can recreate the dishes at home. Feel free to contact us if you need a different start time or have any dietary restrictions. Children aged 12 and older are welcome.

Marilena was amazing! She explained everything so well, she was patient and laid back and funny! She made us feel at home. The class ended up being just me and my daughter. I think other companies would have canceled due to low attendance but she didn't. The food was delicious. I couldn't recommend more highly ❤️
What a great cooking class! Marilena was a wonderful instructor and host and her space was perfect for our class size. She made each recipe feel easy and doable to make. We made some INCREDIBLE food that we are excited to try making at home. Bring your appetite!
Bring an appetite and if you’re staying locally, take a doggie bag. Wonderful lunch the second day!!
This was a great, hands-on class in a beautiful space! We had a wonderful time and everything was delicious!
My partner and I had a wonderful time at the cooking class. We made a variety of delicious dishes that we got to enjoy with plenty of Greek wine at the end. Marilena was a lovely host, I would definitely recommend!
If you are looking to find an experience in cooking, masterfully delivered with grace and guide you thru a few traditional dishes you can remember and repeat at home… this class is for you. I spent time looking for a class that could have a family event and this one filled the order. In the buzzing center of Athens, traffic as expected in a busy city center but worth it. Clean, organized, professional and tasty… thank you for a lasting positive lifetime experience from my family in California!
This was a GREAT experience all the way around. Excellent instructor who was also very funny and charming. Food was great too. A great value for the cost.
It was a wonderful experience. Chef was knowledgeable and polite. Made all members feel comfortable and assured their prepping process was perfect.
This was a beautiful rooftop venue with a view of the Acropolis. The instruction and the pace of the class was excellent. The portions that we created were huge. I would easily enjoy doing this again.
We cooked 7 different greek items / each one delicious- they made it all so easy to do! It was fun to learn how Yaya does it!
