Fresh food, great instruction, delicious end result - The experience was outstanding. Our instructor was attentive to everyone, the environment was clean, and the dishes we made we a perfect blend of involved (e.g. homemade phyllo dough) and fresh and simple. The end result was delicious, and we really enjoyed getting to know some of our fellow travelers at the table. What a fantastic way to spend a few hours in Athens!

Learn to cook Greek food with the best! - This is a must-do activity when in Athens! A group of 20 friends spent the evening learning to cook Greek food. Mari Lena and her team were wonderful, teaching us hands on every step of the way. We made stuffed grape leaves, Greek salad, cheese pie, moussaka, tzatziki and baklava. Then sat to enjoy the fruits of our labor and boy was it delicious. And all of this with a spectacular view of the Parthenon. Highly recommend.

A super fun evening. - If you like Greek food, and think you'd like to make it at home, then do yourself a favor and take a class with CookinAthens. You'll have a good time in class and you WILL be able to make the recipes again at home. Marilena, Artemis, and Athena were wonderful teachers...they kept us right on schedule and kept our work areas clean and organized. The six dishes we made were tzatziki, dolmas, Greek salad, phyllo-wrapped cheese, eggplant with meat sauce and bechamel, and baklava. I am an average cook, and I was able to follow all the directions and make a tasty dish. Now, I can't wait to try the recipes at home. One thing I appreciated was that Marilena told us what we could substitute for ingredients we could not find in Canada or the US, where Greek cheeses may not be available. We had a class member who was dairy free and there were lots of substitutions and alternates that fit with her diet. When we get back to Athens we will take another class with CookinAthens. Until then, we will make our own Greek food at home.

You will LOVE this! - What an amazing experience!! We will have great memories forever. Marilena and her staff were incredible!! We learned and made 6 recipes in a very fun and informative environment. She brought out the best chef in all of us. And then they served us everything we made at a beautiful tabletop setting overlooking the Acropolis. An experience we won't soon forget. Thank you Marilena!

Don't doubt it, do it! - Definitely recommended cooking workshop. A nice location with everything to hand. The dishes we made were super tasty. It was a cooking workshop for the birthday of my 24-year-old son who also likes to experiment in the kitchen. The only downside - but cookinathens can't help it - was that we were the only two guests. It would have been a little more pleasant for us if there had been several tourists from other countries. The teacher was a little nervous which she didn't have to be. The communication beforehand was super and clear. As a tip to the organization I can give you: start by offering a drink and put on a nice music in the background. That way everyone gets in a pleasant mood.

Tremendous Greek Cooking Class - First class cooking class. Really marvelous. It was extremely well organized and you really learned to cook Greek food. The instructor was the nicest lady, as were her helpers. You actually make Filo dough from scratch. You learn to make five or six Greek dishes and then you sit down and have an amazing feast on the food you just prepared. It was so much fun. I can recommend this highly without any reservations what so ever.
