  • Be spontaneous!

    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.

    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!
