This splendid dish, although strikingly simple in recipe, is a remarkable gem of Greek culinary art.

An evening not to miss - Such a lovely evening and experience! It is a tad expensive yes, but it's so worth it. Spending an evening with locals learning how to cook such a delicious meal in their own home was really special. They both made us feel so welcome and it was a highlight from our trip. We're only hoping we can create a similar meal at home now.

Amazing cooking class! - After we finished a different tour with this company, we jumped on board to book another tour with them! They were very welcoming to come into their home and learn to make souvlaki and spend time with their family. We had great conversations, enjoyed learning how to make the food, and ate phenomenal food! This experience was nice to get away from this city for a few hours and enjoy spending time with Stelios and his family.

Great food, great people, lasting memories - This was the best experience during our trip to Greece. The hosts are incredibly welcoming and ensured our visit was a 10/10. The food was amazing and the instructions were easy to follow. Anyone who is on the island should take the time to do this.

Beautiful Greek Afternoon!!! - Spent the afternoon with a young family and Michelin trained chef at their home. We made fresh Tzatziki and Pork and Chicken Souvlaki. Also had plenty of a light Greek wine while we cooked, talked and shared around their table! Met their baby when she got up from her nap- very sweet. A authentic experience where they have become our friends.
