Host offerings
A professional chef, Christos is a fun and passionate host who enjoys meeting new people and sharing his knowledge of Greek cooking with them. Enjoy a cooking class with this Greek native who delights in showcasing garden fresh produce cooked using traditional Greek techniques. Your chef teaches cooking classes in a beautiful vineyard and garden venue. Unlike typical Traveling Spoon experiences, this experience takes place in a local cooking studio and restaurant and not in a home.
Please note menu might vary. If there are particular dishes you are interested in trying, please include your request in the booking form.
Cooking experience (1 - 12 guests) Meet your fun and friendly host who will give you a short tour of the gardens where they grow everything from the delicious Greek tomato to crisp cucumbers. At a modern, cooking studio, learn to cook authentic local recipes that your host has perfected. During this hands-on, Greek farm to table cooking class, you will cook with fresh vegetables and herbs from the gardens, as well as other ingredients from local farmers. Learn to make traditional dishes such as the famed Santorinian fava, tomato fritters, pork fillets with Vinsanto sauce or if you are vegetarian, an exquisite local tomato paste and garlic pasta. Your cooking class lasts about 1.5 hours after which you will savor the meal you helped prepare in a beautiful restaurant setting, indoors or outdoors, weather permitting. Your meal will be accompanied by volcanic wines from the Artemis Karamolegos Winery and concludes with a sweet dessert.
Notes: Your host is happy to accommodate vegetarian, vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free requests. Wine is included in the cost of your experience. On days that Christos is not available, an equally passionate culinary chef will host you instead.

A Traveling Spoon team member has visited this host. Our favorite parts of this experience:
We liked the friendliness of the chef, his human qualities and his way of life. He is very welcoming. Easy and good recipes to make! Super beautiful frame! Nice visit and meal at the top (we did not manage to finish even though we are very big eaters!) Beginner level for this cooking class so the pros in the kitchen are not top chefs ^^
