Angelina was absolutely amazing. She has a personality of gold and her food was equally amazing. She was the highlight of my 8 day cruise around Greece. I will return to Mykonos because of Angelina and her hospitality.
Wonderful experience. I would definitely do this cooking class when in Mykonos. Also a great way to learn more about Greek culture.
If you're looking for unique things to do in Mykonos, this private Mykonos food and sailing tour is perfect for you! Ride aboard a traditional Greek wooden boat (kaiki) for 45 minutes to a beautiful non-touristy destination for your authentic private Greek cooking demonstration and meal. Depending on the winds, you may be whisked away to a sandy beach on Rhenia next to the ancient island of Delos (a UNESCO World Heritage site) or sail along the south Mykonos beaches which are more protected from the winds. You will enjoy your meal on your kaiki that has a shaded dining area that will be docked where your cooking demonstration will be conducted.
During this cooking demonstration, your host Angelina will show you how to prepare and serve a couple of delectable Myconian and Greek meze (small plates) and how to pair them with the typical greek drink, the ouzo. This is a wonderful way to experience a serene, spectacular beach location away from the crowds of Mykonos and feel the ancient glory of the area! With a glass of ouzo in hand, you will watch as she prepares 2-3 meze that you will feast on later. Your meal will include additional typical Greek dishes Angelina will have prepared in advance. Your menu may include dishes such as mostra (Mykonian bruschetta), keftedakia (Greek meatballs), tzatziki (yogurt and cucumber dip), melitzanosalata (Greek baba ganoush), gigandes (giant beans in a tomato sauce), Greek salad with watermelon and shrimp saganaki (shrimp in a fresh tomato sauce topped with feta cheese).
Bring your own gear or borrow from the boat and feel free to swim and snorkel in the beautiful waters before your meal. You will return via the kaiki to the Ornos port after your culinary adventure!
Angelina was a delight. We had clear instructions on when and where to meet. We followed her to her charming flat and proceeded to make the most delicious feast. She made all the recipes very accessible to us and will share the recipes. We left with recommendations, knowledge and full stomachs! Highly recommend.
