Culinary adventures in Greece

We love Greek food. No question. Never will we utter ‘not another plate of mezze’ or, ‘I hope this Shasklik doesn’t come with a pile of pitta’.

We don’t dish up the usual Greek cookery courses. Instead, our holidays are deliberate concoctions of the Greek’s love of simple, well cooked dishes, balanced and seasoned to your taste.

Go learn to cook anything from the perfect shasklik to herb grilled fish, dolmadakia to refreshing tzatziki, spicy kleftiko to pungent garlic prawns.

Where to experience cooking courses in Greece

Spend a week on the island of Poros with resident chef Katerina for an exclusive cookery holiday with a difference.

For an innovative take on a cooking break, why not combine it with learning to speak Greek, gathering wild herbs, a sailing holiday in Greece or wine tasting?

Go. Eat. Enjoy. This is what a Greek cookery holiday should taste like.
