Description

Evi, a native of Greece, has inherited the art of cooking and caring from her ancestors. She now resides with her family in a charming house, where she devotes her time to creating culinary masterpieces. Evi’s passion for cooking blossomed in her early youth, and she has continually experimented in the kitchen ever since.

A naturally social individual, Evi often hosts meals and caters for family friends and her husband’s colleagues, sharing her love for food and hospitality with those around her.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

Evi’s event offers one of the most authentic Greek experiences you can enjoy during your stay in Athens. Step into a cozy, beautifully decorated house where Evi and her lovely family reside.

Join a 2.5-hour interactive session, savoring a variety of the most representative traditional dishes of Greece. Under Evi’s guidance, learn how to bake your own authentic bread and discover fascinating tips about Greek cuisine.

As you cook and dine, socialize with Evi and other guests, sharing stories and clinking glasses. This special memory of Greece will stay forever in your heart. The event takes place in Ilioupoli, a central-southern district of Athens located 6 km from the city center, nestled at the foot of the picturesque Hymettus Mountain. Evi’s home is in a peaceful residential area surrounded by green parks and numerous squares.

The neighborhood is easily accessible by bus, taxi, or your own vehicle. Evi’s experience is an ideal activity to combine with a sunny day on the nearby southern beaches.
