Stella was a fantastic host, she was super friendly, made sure everyone was involved in the process and gave us lots of personal hints and tips which made the class extra special. We made everything ourselves, nothing was pre-made. The restaurant had a view of the acropolis so we got to watch the sunset over that as we ate our delicious creations. We received a binded copy of all the recipes we made so we can try and recreate them at home. We had so much fun and would definitely recommend to anyone looking to learn how to cook authentic Greek cuisine.”
