Private Greek Cooking Class in Mykonos with a Food Professional

Angelina and her family hosted six of us in her spectacular home overlooking the sea in Mykonos (a 25 minute drive from town). She also has a home in town for smaller groups. This was not only a cooking class but an introduction to the lifestyle and architecture of Mykonos. Angelina asked what we'd like to learn to cook in advance; every single dish was absolutely delicious and quite easy to prepare. Our hosts were warm, interesting, lots of fun. We've been raving us about our wonderful day ever since and HIGHLY recommend Angelina's cooking classes to anyone who wants an exceptional and very memorable day in Mykonos.

The whole experience was absolutely amazing. Angelina was incredibly accommodating leading up to the event, offering additional choices or substitutions in place of foods we couldn't eat or preferred, and super adaptive at a moment's notice (swapping out ingredients last minute without sacrificing taste). Angelina is not only an incredible chef but a wonderful host that offered fantastic hospitality at her beautiful home and friendship through food that was easy to make and even better to enjoy. Easily the highlight of our trip.

Angelina was a wonderful host and teacher! We loved this experience and would recommend to anyone going to Mykonos! We can't wait to show our families what we learned!

Amazing! It was like walking into a friends home! She welcomed us with open arms and treated us like family. We cooked with the freshest and most beautiful ingredients! The recipes were made in a way that we could actually recreate at home with ease! Absolutely a trip highlight!!!

From the moment my sister & I walked in to Angelina’s warm & welcoming home in Mykonos, we knew we were in for an unforgettable experience! Greetings began with an ouzo on ice (to get the gastronomy going: Opa!). Along with this traditional Greek drink we enjoyed some delicious, authentic Greek appetizers. As we chatted, we learned how to make feta parcels, tzatziki and shrimp saganaki. We ended our meal with a recipe of baklava (We prepared together). Everything was absolutely delicious. Hats off to Angelina! Thank you for welcoming us into your beautiful home!

Angelina was an amazing teacher, host, and cook. She made us feel very comfortable in her place and we had a great time cooking Greek dishes with her. The portions were large and we had more food than we could eat. The food was amazing and the recipes I think will be ones we can make our own and when we return home. I would highly recommend this cooking class with Angelina.

We had the BEST time with Angelina Kalogeropoulou in her darling home right in Mykonos town! It was a highlight of our Greece vacation. Angelina was so lovely and we had a blast learning to make Greek appetizers, cheese pies, tzatziki, Greek salad, shrimps in a tomato sauce and simple baklava!!! All enjoyed with a bit of Uzzo to start and then a great local wine. And it was all so delicious! Plus we learned a little bit about the culinary history and how and why they cook the way they do. With an emphasis on filo and feta!! YUM!

It’s hard to say what our favorite part of this amazing experience was!

Let’s start with Angelina... SHE is what makes this experience so very special and fun! She connected with us shortly after we registered for the cooking class. And her thoughtful planning of a menu that was special and unique for us was much appreciated! Angelina made this so much more than a cooking class. We learned about the culture and food that we made and we felt like we spent the afternoon with family.

The food... so fun to cook alongside Angelina and even more fun to eat our dishes. Wow!! She is a chef extraordinaire and we learned so much! She has since shared her recipes and I’ve made most of the dishes and impressed everyone that has tried them- delicious!!

We were in Greece for 10 days. We loved every minute of our vacation... And we all agree- my husband, myself and our two teenage girls- that this cooking experience with Angelina was a highlight!!

She is fun and warm and kind, not to mention an outstanding chef! Thank you for making this a special part of our family trip, Angelina!!

The cooking class was phenomenal, Angie was so kind and took the time to adapt the class and recipes due to some of our preferences. The food was fantastic and was full for the whole day! I will definitely be using the recipes at home, she made sure to use ingredients we could find at home and gave history / knowledge of every dish we made/ ate. I’ve done a lot of cooking classes at multiple locations, but this was by far the best. It was a great experience and Angie made us feel at ease and was eager for us to get involved. Thank you Angie for a great day!

Angelina welcomed us with open arms to her beautiful villa that overlooked the sea. We were a mother daughter group of 6 and Angelina had her daughter join us which was so sweet. The food we prepared was delicious and sitting together to enjoy our creations was like dining with old friends. We did not want to leave. The recipes were delicious, classic yet simple to make. Angelina’s husband had the fire going which created a warm and inviting setting and joined us for dinner as well and it was so nice to sit and chat. We highly recommend this to anyone wanting a cooking experience.

Wonderful chef, great ideas for easy but delicious recipes. Very enjoyable evening. Lots of food! Highly recommend it!

Dinner with Angelina is really something very special. We had been looking forward to it, and it turned out to be even better than we had expected! Angelina was so sweet. She shared secrets of Greek cooking passed down by her Ya Ya, and explained everything with such ease that I am confident I could recreate the dishes myself. Everything she made was the best we had ever tasted, better than any restaurant, and the experience is something we will remember forever.

This experience was absolutely fabulous! One of our favorite days of the entire trip. Angelina was incredibly hospitable and a wonderful chef and instructor! We felt so at home. Wonderful!

We are a family of four with two teenagers. One of us has dietary restrictions that might have made it difficult to experience authentic Greek cuisine. Angelina created a menu that totally worked with the restrictions but was also authentic and delicious to boot! What an incredible experience: to be invited into someone’s home, taught their regional cuisine and cooking methods, and then to enjoy a languorous meal with new friends in a gorgeous setting. We were blown away! Angelina and her husband have a gorgeous, well-appointed home with fabulous views in every direction. We toured their garden, picked herbs for the meal, and felt an immediate kinship with them—-perhaps because they were so open and curious and generous as hosts. I highly recommend this magical experience.

My wife and I had the opportunity to spend an evening cooking with Angelina. It was without a doubt one of the highlights of this trip (or many others we've taken before).

We were picked up and whisked away to her beautiful home, which is on a quiet SE side of the island with an incredible view to the water. She had tasty mezzes prepared for us when we arrived.

We then learned how to cook several dishes. She was flexible but clear in her teaching and would allow us to watch her or to do things ourselves. We made dinner and then took a 'break' to eat the amazing food. Finally we made dessert and ate that too.

We had a lot of fun spending time with her and her husband Soren...frankly we enjoyed meeting and chatting with them just as much as the "class" itself. We talked about food, life, travel, and more. We ended up staying a bit later than the original time but never felt rushed.

Anjelina herself is passionate about not only the final product but the process itself. She is sweet and caring and skilled, and you can see that in every minute you spend with her.

We just had a really wonderful night. Thanks to Traveling Spoon for offering this experience.
