⋅ WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY ⋅

The whole atmosphere was peaceful and quiet, sometimes funny. Everyone had a nice task, preparing the ovens, the fire, or the food. We cooked together Maria showed us how to prepare the traditional stuffed dolmades, stuffed tomatoes, peppers, onions… The best time for me was preparing and baking the sfacian pie. I always wondered how they made those thin-filled pies. Now I know… and I can make them myself… that’s so great! The activity went fantastically well, we ate together and had a lovely day. Thanks so much for this great tutorial on cooking traditional food the old fashioned way. Children, adults, mixed nations.. relaxed, happy and complete.

Helen and Maria’s all-round magical experience was so special! I have Greek roots. My parents were born in Egypt and their siblings in Brazil and South Africa. Mom had so much passion and love for good food and family time. Let me tell you what I experienced was great! Eleni and Maria are awesome! As beautiful to live in as they are to work cooking. They are very social. We were introduced to the Cretan culture of home cooking. Let’s not forget the raki, to get the blood flowing before diving into the preparation of these mouth-watering dishes. We all got hooked on chopping, wrapping dolmades, stuffed vegetables… the list goes on!

I can’t recommend this experience enough. The place itself is like a dream with views of the white mountains and such tranquility, my dog Betty didn’t want to leave! We went on a short hike in a nearby forest where Eleni pointed out to us the local plants and trees and the ancient wells. Afterwards we cooked a delicious meal over a wood fire. Eleni talked us through the history of the house and how the mill would have worked. I definitely want to return and learn how to make my own soap from olives! Thanks so much for an amazing experience.
