Highly recommend!! - Happened upon this experience randomly as we looked for ways to spend an extra day in Athens between tours. Dionisia and her family could not have been more gracious and welcoming, and the whole experience was incredible. We made gyros from start to finish, including tzatziki and pitas from scratch! So much beautiful food and delicious, too. Hoping to re-create this wonderful experience with our friends at home.

What an amazing experience - This is the best cooking class I’ve been to. Dionysia and Kostas made us so welcome and unlike some classes where you watch this was absolutely hands on. The whole atmosphere was like being invited to a friend’s house to prepare food. The recipes were simple (so easy to do at home) and the food we prepared was wonderful with beautiful fresh ingredients. I highly recommend this class and will definitely refer friends who visit Athens

Experience Greece through food - Our cooking class with Dionisia and Costas was fantastic. Great introduction to Greek food, culture, and people. A delightful addition to the wonderful but crowded sites in Athens.

Where you feel seen and welcomed and joy in cooking is shared. Even my husband who waited for me was welcomed. - You feel seen and valued from the time you walk in. My husband was made so welcome too whilst he waited for me, he had snacks and refreshments then joined us for the meal . Was such fun creating and learning this yummy food, am excited to try this now at home for my family and friends, thank you❤️

Pleasan Afternoom of Food and Fun - I brought a group of about 40 students, parents, teachers, and family to Eat With Your Greek Cousin over Spring Break. All the kids really got into making the dishes and we all agreed the food was amazing. I know many of us came home and tried to recreate the recipes. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for an amazing meal, great company, and a wonderful cultural experience. You won't regret it!

Great host and tasty food - Fantastic experience. The food was delicious and plentiful and Dionysia and her family were the kindest most welcoming hosts. I was in the city on a business trip but would love to bring my wife and kids back. It would be a great family experience.

Amazing Experience in Athens - It was an amazing experience that our family can't stop talking about. Dionysia was welcoming, funny and instructive. Great time to share with family, friends or colleagues. We have ordered the vertical broiler and have the recipes. We can't wait to do it again at home!
