What to expect

We had a wonderful multi-generational Zoom lesson with Marilena. A perfect family activity during the pandemic, with terrific Greek food in each house as an end result. We so appreciated Marilena's helpful suggestions in proposing a menu that worked for our whole group, and he patience in walking us through the various steps to get all of us to the end of our three-course tour de force! We can't wait to have an in-person class with her -- with a view of the Acropolis -- in the future.

Marliena was an incredible host and chef. She is cool and an easy person to deal and chat with. Food was incredible and we cooked with her. It was raining so we stayed indoors but the view of the Acroplis was magnificent. The infrastructure and tools were cool and modern. We loved her company.

Wow! Our cooking class was great! With a view of the Acropolis! Marilena changed up some of the recipes to meat with our requests. We made Mezedes which are like appetizers or small plates. Sooooo good! Our friends, who we traveled with and us are planning a Greek Party with all the foods we cooked. We laughed and drank wine and cooked. One of our best nights in Athens! We would definetly do this again. Marilena and her assistant Artemis were delightful and made the evening something special. Thank you both for a wonderful experience!

Marilena is a perfect host. She has created a vegan menu for us that we cooked together in her beautiful cooking studio. I never thought that grilled eggplants could taste so good. This event was a great addition to our visit to Athens. Thank you Marilena!
