We will meet at Villa Maria, our historical guesthouse. The class will take place in the villa’s gourmet kitchen. You will enjoy a glass of herbal tea made with the island’s wild herbs while I give some information about the Greek culinary tradition. We will then start our hands-on cooking class, where we will prepare a full menu of several dishes and learn step by step Greek home recipes not found in restaurants. Our menu will include a couple of starters, a pie, a salad, a main dish and a dessert. You can opt for a vegan/ vegetarian menu. Menus vary according to season. In the end, we will share a feast in the villa’s shaded courtyard. You can add, at a supplementary cost of 45€ p.p. ,a wine and cheese tasting. You will try excellent Greek wines ( a white, a pink, a red and a dessert wine)from Greek grape varieties and sample artisanal cheeses from various Greek islands. NOTE: For less than 4 participants, the class may take place in the kitchen of our country home in Finikas, 10km from Ermoupolis. In this case we will arrange the transport. We will enjoy our meal in the lovely garden, in the shade of a fig tree, or in the dining room overlooking the bay.
