What you’ll do
Cooking can be a fun activity and a great way to bring family and friends together through food and play. That’s why we created a cooking class where even smaller kids (and also adults who don’t cook) can actively participate in most parts of the process.
Starting with a greek coffee or a cool juice, this 3-hour experience takes place in our kitchen lab, which is located on a hill overlooking the beach of Chorefto. There our cook will be expecting you with local products to make a delicious traditional meal.
You will learn the secrets of “fava”, roll the filo pastry for a “skopelitiki” pie, and make the filling for “gemista”, a true summertime classic.
If you love the idea of spending some family time in a greek kitchen, or you’re just wondering what to do on a rainy day, then “Family Kitchen” is certainly a great option for you.
