This is a slice of heaven on a plate. Do not hesitate to book this cooking class. My husband and I just made 6 authentically Greek dishes, with plenty of time for questions and explanations. We cant wait to bring this home and share it with our family and friends. I have take many cooking classes and this one was as good as the best of them. The garden was beautiful and the class space was magical. Will speaks great English and was an excellent teacher.

What a great way to learn the art of Greek cooking! Our host/chef Vasilios ("Bill") greeted us at the gate on a quiet city street. Beyond the gate was a gorgeous little courtyard where we chatted for a bit before he brought us into the kitchen, which could have been the set of a TV cooking show. We made some incredible dishes and enjoyed learning the various cooking techniques!
Don’t eat before class!...
