Alexandra and Eleanor were wonderful! Eleanor gave the overviews and introduction, describing the significance of the historic cave building. Alexandra did an amazing job leading the class through preparing a salad, an appetizer, a main meal, and a desert. She is so passionate about cooking and the culture of Santorini, and her bubbly personality added to the whole experience. She uses recipes handed down through the generations of her family and many of the vegetables and ingredients come from her family garden/farm. Everyone in the class got to participate in doing some of the cooking and preparation, and then we ate family style at the end. If you are looking for a fun, authentic Santorini cooking experience in a historic village, this is the class for you!

The food was delicious and the hostess and chef teacher were very accommodating. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history behind the food and the traditional cooking methods used. We ended up not being able to finish all of our food but we were able to take some back wrapped in foil for later consumption.

Today we participated in a cooking class. The chef and host were amazing, and so very kind. I felt at home. We learned a lot, I will definitely use what I learned when I return home. Megalochori is amazing, so rich with history, culture and just breathtaking. On the menu: garlic pasta, traditional Greek salad, fava bean dip, tomato fritters and a traditional Greek dessert called Halva made from semolina flour. Cooking class was held in a traditional Greek cave home that is over 150 years old in a quaint village called Megalochori.

We had a great time in this cooking class following Alexandra’s instructions. We made tomato fritters, garlic pasta and a Santorini salad. The group was fairly large, 12 people , so it went a little slow at times, but the food was good. Eleanor began serving us wine as soon as we arrived and they provided cute aprons to wear. I would recommend as an enjoyable afternoon experience.
