"Christina was a wonderful host and teacher! We learned a lot about Greek cooking and daily life in Athens, and we made some delicious dishes under Christina’s watchful eyes. Thank you for this opportunity to “visit” Greece during the pandemic."
Albano Moura
"We had a great time on our class! Christina guides you pretty well through the recipe and also gives some interesting information about Greece, funny things about the dishes we're making, which is something I really like in these experiences. She has a great energy, was very kind to our daughter who was also cooking with us. Would definitely do it again!"
