Our kids loved this class. Our instructor was warm, funny, and informative. We had four teen and pre-teen boys who weren’t sure about being in a cooking class for 5 hours but they loved the entire experience. They were competing on who could make the best dishes and smiled with pride as we ate the food they prepared. We also learned a lot of interesting facts about Mykonos and Greece. The service also included transport door to door which was a huge plus in Mykonos since getting around the island is a little difficult with scarcity and of taxis.
