Hosted at Avli, this premium culinary masterclass invites you to roll up your sleeves and cook alongside our celebrated head chef, Vasilis Leonidou. Discover the unique traditions, rich histories & distinct flavors that make Cretan cuisine celebrated worldwide.
The hands-on practice starts with prepping cold starters and traditional appetizers.
Under the guidance of Chef Vasilis & our kitchen team, you will learn professional culinary techniques and helpful tips so you can confidently recreate these dishes back in your own kitchen.
Next, you will dive into preparing your main courses. Together with the chefs, you will learn to craft a combination of time-honored Cretan dishes, alongside modern gastronomic twists.
Once the hard work is done, it is time to sit together at a candlelit table in our historic 16th-century courtyard! The very same space where Venetian nobles gathered centuries ago. You will share thoughts, laughter, and an exceptional 5-course feast featuring the self-made masterpieces you cooked together. From traditional meze & seasonal appetizers to the main course & a delightful dessert, the table will be filled with the authentic warmth of true Cretan hospitality.
