Cooking class
For foodies at heart
1st choice: Sustainable Cooking class, explore a mountainous village
We cooperate with 2 families who are located in a 40-min drive from Nafplio in a mountainous village, at 700 meters altitude. The village is one of the highlights of the region, where locals hang out and where you can eat authentic village food. One family has a local tavern and the other one owns a home with a wooden oven.
What we are going to do: We begin by drinking fresh spring water at the fountain in the village square, while enjoying an introduction to the area and its history. We then continue with a cup of mountain tea with honey, accompanied by a panoramic view of the village and surrounding mountains.
Next, it’s time to get hands-on — aprons on — as we start preparing two traditional Greek recipes: the famous tzatziki and gemista (stuffed vegetables with rice and sauce). Once cooking is complete, we take a five-minute walk from the restaurant to meet our second “chef” — a local Greek grandmother (yiayia). Here, you will learn how to prepare a traditional cheese pie, making your own phyllo dough and baking it in a wood-fired oven.
