We recently learned how to make pirogies with Kasia. She was wonderful. We went to the market together and among other things, bought wild blueberries picked in the forest. We then went to her home for a cooking lesson. Kasia was a very warm host and made us feel comfortable from the first moment. But it was more than just a cooking class. It was a golden opportunity to leave tourist ridden Krakow for a while and experience contact with a lovely local person. I enjoyed talking with her, listening to Polish folk music while we cooked, and learning to close the pirogies in an embellished style - upon my request. And I also loved her very overweight and furry black cat.
I attended the pierogi making class with my sister and we both thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We met our guide Kasia and went to the local market to shop for ingredients before heading to her home to make pierogies. I'm a novice cook, but even I was able to make some delicious tasting Polish treats! Kasia shared her recipe and I look forward to making them at home.
Kasia was absolutely fabulous. My daughter has celiac and she was very accommodating and we were able to make gluten free pierogi for her to enjoy. She took us through the local market to buy our food which was a great experience and we enjoyed sharing stories while making pierogi in her home. Highly recommend!

My sister and I booked the pierogi making class with Kasia and had a great time. Kasia met us near the Old Town where we went to a nearby local market to buy our ingredients and practice our Polish. After exploring the market, we took a taxi (part of the fee) with Kasia to her home where we were offered a drink and treated to some delicious traditional Polish appetizers: kielbasa, sauerkraut, pickles, and cheese. We prepped ingredients together and chatted while we did so. The pace was relaxed, friendly, and enjoyable. We made potato and cheese pierogis as well as some fruit pierogis made with “forest blueberries” we picked up at the market. Truthfully, the best pierogis I’ve ever had and the best part was since we were staying in a flat, we took the leftovers and had them for dinner, too! At the conclusion of the session, we were sent back to our flat by taxi. Later, Kasia sent us the recipe by email so that we have our “secret recipe” ready to go. We are so excited to try and replicate these light and fluffy pierogis at home! Highly recommend this activity and Kasia!
This was absolute delight!!! I highly recommend doing this especially if you want to learn how to make perogis!!!!
The class one of the highlights of our trip. Paula met us on time at the appointed location and took us to the local market. Then she taught us how to use local transportation to get to her apartment. The class maxes out at 6 people. Paula's English was great. Paula did an excellent job having us make the pierogis and treating us to local snacks. When the class was over, she made sure we all got to where we needed to go. If you want to get truly immersed in the Polish culture, I would highly recommend the class.
We had a pleasant time with Alicja. There were only 2 of us and everything went very well. The time spent shopping for ingredients with her was memorable. The welcome at her home was impeccable.

Our cooling class was with Anna. We shopped for our ingredients then went to here home and prepared both savory and sweet pierogis which turned out delicious. Anna was a great instructor and was very patient with us.
