We booked spontaneous this cooking class for lunch, cause AirBnB highlighted it. Surprisingly it wasn’t only a personalized advertisement, but such a great experience, too. My girlfriend and me were luckily the only ones attending and we had Sylwia as such a great teacher. We followed Sylwia’s calm instructions, did chat about traveling highlights, or countries and handmade our own Pierogi. So we learned that attending a local cuisine course is probably the best way to get in touch with the culture and you have lunch, too. Thanks a lot Sylwia for such a great time and experience 😘

We had such a wonderful time at the pierogi-making class! Sylwia was incredibly helpful and shared meaningful stories about her family’s pierogi-making traditions. After preparing both sweet and savory varieties, we were able to sit down and enjoy everything we made. We even received the recipe and are excited to start a new tradition by adding pierogi-making to our family’s Christmas Eve preparations.

I highly recommend that anyone even remotely interested in Polish cuisine take this class. It was one of the highlights of our time in Krakow. Magda was incredibly kind and a pleasure to be around. This is a must do for couples visiting the city.

We had an amazing time at Sylwia's Pierogi Cooking Class! She was warm, welcoming, and a great teacher - patient with beginners and full of tips that made the whole process feel approachable and fun. We learned how to make traditional pierogi from scratch, and the results were delicious. If you're visiting Kraków and want a hands-on, authentic Polish food experience, this is it. Thank you, Sylwia!

Olga was very nice and made us welcomed! She walked us through all the steps of preparing pierogies and her recipe. She stayed after and chatted with us more about our trip and Poland. We made two types of pierogies.

Sylwia was absolutely amazing! The whole pierogi-making experience was so much fun, and sitting down to a delicious lunch afterward was the perfect highlight. Sylwia is incredibly open and curious, making the conversation just as good as the food. Highly recommend!
