A must do in Athens - One of the best things we did in Athens. We learned how to make the most delicious gyros, pita and dips that we hope to replicate at home. Dionysia and her family were amazing! A must do

What a fantastic cooking experience! We would love to take another class here. - We loved our gyro cooking class!. It greatly exceeded our expectations! Dionysia is an outstanding teacher and very down to earth. The class was very relaxed and easy to follow. The food was delicious, all the way from the appetizers through to the dessert. They will also share the recipes at the end so you can make everything again at home.

You must do this! - We have never done a cooking class before and absolutely loved this experience. Even our 16 year old son! The leaders of the class were entertaining, informative and maybe most importantly, patient! The food we cooked was wonderful as well. Highly recommend!

Cooking class is Awesome! - This Greek Cooking Class was so much fun! Dionysia and her family present a fantastic experience! I highly recommend! We were able to marinate the meat, make the pita dough, and cook it. We also make Tzatziki dips and Greek Cheesecake! Everything was absolutely wonderful!

Highly Recommended Greek Cooking - This was such a great experience for myself my husband and 4 kids. Dionysia and her husband were great hosts and made it fun and educational. The food was also delicious and it made it even better that we made it completely ourselves. Highly recommend to anyone wishing to have a true Greek cooking experience.

Fun cooking class and delish food! - Fun and hands on activity! She gave us step by step direction in preparing the meal. The food was delish and very filling. Gotta be the best gyro, pita and tzatziki sauce I’ve ever had! Hoping to receive the recipe soon so we can recreate this at home. Highly recommend this cooking class.

Authentic and memorable - We had 5 adults and 2 kids, and we booked this cooking class at the last minute. Coming from the US to Greece and speaking nearly none of the native language, we had no idea what to expect. From the moment we reached out on TripAdvisor, Dionysia was responsive and engaging -- connecting right away over WhatsApp. The experience was more than a cooking class. It will always be a wonderful family memory. Dionysia, her husband, and her son welcomed us warmly and kindly. The atmosphere was relaxed, and the food was delicious, hands-on, and ideally suited to our group, including 2 vegetarians. The menu was basic, which made it even more ideal, as we could take the recipes home and recreate the dishes in California. We all had a blast. It was one of those rare experiences that felt both authentic and unforgettable. I highly recommend it!

Great fun and delicious food! - Great fun and delicious food in this cooking class, hosted by a warm and friendly local family ☺️ I have no kitchen skills, but this class was approachable for me and yet still informative for my cooking-savvy spouse. We made gyros - several kinds of filling, two sauces and our own pita - plus a simple tasty dessert and wine or beer throughout. I would recommend it to anyone, including vegetarians!

Texans cooking Gyros - Dionysia and her son did an amazing job walking us through how to make the Greek comfort food, gyros. We looked at cooking classes to do as a family but most made me hesitant as our kids aren’t adventurous eaters. When I saw the gyro class, I jumped on it thinking we could make it work for the kids. The hosts were very accommodating, reaching out the day before about the specific meats and any other need to know items before we arrived. We wound up having a private class as they didn’t have another booking for our time slot but we enjoyed the time of getting to know more about their family and their knowledge of Greece and Athens. We would highly recommend this experience for you, especially for family’s with kids.
