A truly Greek Cooking experience in the hills - The cooking experience at Gregory’s was incredible. Anna led us through many dishes and then we sat outside in her beautiful restaurant to sample it all. It is in a small village in the hills which adds to its charm - also a bit cooler up there - dishes are easy to manage and we will be trying them at home. It was my husbands 60th birthday and they brought out a cake for him - such a thoughtful touch! Great day recommend - a family run business that gives u the feel of the real Greece. 👏

The town was beautiful and I loved the amazing view while enjoying the food. I would definitely recommend this course to others as a unique way to experience Naxos culture and cuisine.

A must-do experience in Naxos! - This cooking class was absolutely amazing. Anna was lovely and patiently guided us through each step of preparing and cooking traditional Greek food. The cooking class was lots of fun, made even better by enjoying our work while overlooking the nearby towns. I would absolutely reccomend this experience for anyone looking for an authentic Greek food experience in Naxos. Thank you so much Anna and Gregory’s Tavern!

Heavenly Food! - We loved Anna and we loved her cooking class! It was loads of fun. My wife and I had the best time. The recipes were simple but varied with lots of different kinds of technique and tasks. All the food was delicious but we are still dreaming about the orange pie. What a fun afternoon!

Great cooking class for the whole family. - Great experience for the whole family. We made delicious traditional dishes with a very engaging and experienced host, Anna. We had so much food we couldn’t eat it all! The location in the quaint hillside village was interesting to experience and had a great view of the nearby towns.

Beautiful Location and Wonderful People - We joined five other vacationers for the cooking class given by Anna at her family taverna. Together we made six Greek dishes under Anna’s expert guidance. We were given recipes and I feel very confident about making these items at home. The location of the taverna is beautiful and Anna took us on a walking tour of the village before we sat down to enjoy our dinner. We recommend this food tour highly!

Wonderful family experience - Anna is a knowledgeable chef and delightful native of the village where she returned after culinary school in Athens. Our teen daughter and her friend found Anna to be very encouraging and loved the informative and beautiful tour of the village. Virtually all the ingredients were sourced from nearby terraces or elsewhere on the island (lamb raised by her father, potatoes grown by her boyfriend, goat cheese made by her mother). One of our group is vegan and she took care to have many delicious vegan options. We prepared six different dishes! The stuffed vegetables, phyllo wrapped Gruyère with honey and orange zest pie with phyllo were our favorites! Portions were very generous.
As my daughter said “what better souvenir to bring home than the ability to cook Greek recipes.” Thank you Anna.
