Really interesting class, we learned how to make moussaka baklava taziziki saganaki and other dishes along with a bit of history on Greece and Greek cooking. My husband, who doesn't cook at all, enjoyed the class and was really glad he came. We did not leave hungry, that is for sure. Thanks to Alex and Mandy and the whole team at The Green Frog.
Amazing cooking class with island history!

We had the best four hours at this cooking class. The team and the family are amazing and knowledgeable. We are now Greeks and they sent us a lot of recipes that we can go home to try. The whole day was 10 out of 10. Thank you so much.

This experience was the highlight of our holiday! An absolutely amazing experience with passionate hosts who framed the history of Greece in the most phenomenal way. We had the opportunity to prepare 5 dishes within 4 hours and try local produce as well. In between courses, Alex would give a modern take on Greek history which contextualised our entire holiday. Not only did we take away ideas for new dishes when back at home but also recommendations for books and hints to improve our ingredients (olive oil in a tin!) Honestly, if you want a way to spend a morning which won't leave you sunburnt or disappointed, book this!
A MUST for Zakynthos holidays ♥️

It was really a great cooking class! Nice and friendly hosts and great Greek stories about Zakynthos. A must if you are on Zakynthos. Would do it again next time. In addition, we have met nice people. Which are from New Zealand, North Carolina, Ohio and the UK. Have had great conversations.
