My wife and two friends did a cooking class with Teta at Mykonian Spiti in September. We are food and wine lovers and so we typically do cooking classes to most countries we travel to.
The first impression we felt this class was going to be special was walking into Teta's home which was beautifully decorated and she immediately made us feel at home. Many of the cooking classes we have done around the world have involved us cooking a local dish which you would typically not find back at home. What we thoroughly enjoyed with this class was that we were cooking local Greek dishes with ingredients we can source at home and make ourselves.
We not only learn't a lot during the call but we had so much fun. I think a combination of good wine, raki and some couples challenges really made this a stand out experience for us.
Of all the cooking or food experiences we have done around the world, this one was by far the best.
Thank you so much - Graham, Julia,...

All staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The host, Teta, selected a few members from our group to assist her in making spinach pie. I was disappointed I did not get a chance to participate because I thought everyone would prepare the dish. At the end of the tour we were served a delicious dinner with...
