What you can expect

  • First you are welcomed with a homemade refreshment or a Greek coffee from the hostess.

    While you’re enjoying your drink and cookies, you will be informed about the Mediterranean-based menu.

    Oven-roasted lamb is the first dish prepared so it can cook for over 2 hours in the wood-fired stone oven. Learn all about why this dish is called “the thieves dinner” and its historic significance.

    Afterwards, you’ll prepare stuffed vegetables and stuffed grape leaves (dolmades). Gather herbs and veggies from the garden for the stuffing. Rolling grape leaves is a delicate skill that you will master! In the oven they go.

    Get your rolling pins out, the dough of the kalitsounia is next! Roll out the dough for these traditional pies and fill them with cheese and wild greens.

    Starters are prepared last but enjoyed first. Tzatziki and dakos. These simple yet delicious dishes are sure to be your favourite snacks to recreate at home.

    Finally, it’s time to eat. Enjoy all of the beautiful traditional Cretan dishes you’ve created with copious amounts of local wine.

    Make sure you leave room for dessert! Something sweet is always offered at the end.
