WONDERFUL HOLIDAY ACTIVITY - A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY:
COOKING CLASSES WITH GEORGIA

We would like to recommend the unique experience of Georgia's cooking classes, where you can spend one afternoon and evening learning some of the secrets of traditional Greek cuisine.
Georgia is a very talented chef, highly experienced and passionate about cooking. For many years she was the chef of the wellknown Kafenion in Andri village, and many Greek people would travel all the way from Chania and beyond to taste her delicious cooking.

She is now working in Paleochora, at the 'Finikas' Restaurant (former 'Palm Tree Bar') and once a week offers a cooking class in English, where, in a very friendly and downtoearth manner, she will teach you some of her signature dishes, or indeed any classical Greek dish:
Georgia is also open to build the class around your requests for particular dishes which you might want her to teach. Whatever Greek dish you have always wanted to be able to cook for yourself here is your chance to learn how to do it.

The classes take place in Tsaliana, a lovely quiet village only 5 minutes' drive from Paleochora. You will be driven there and back by the friendly people who organise the class. The venue is a beautiful summer house next to a river, surrounded by the quiet countryside.

Georgia will welcome you with a warm smile and a cold glass of wine, as you are settling in for an afternoon of pleasure and delights. The menu typically consists of one meat dish, one vegetarian dish, two dips or salads and, of course, a sweet dessert. The kitchen is modern and wellequipped. However, in the garden you will be introduced to an important feature of the Greek kitchen: a stone oven, where the meat is often cooked using a slow method that preserves its taste and juiciness.

Towards the evening, when you have prepared a 3course traditional meal, drunk some wine, laughed a lot and maybe made some new friends, you will enjoy the wonderful traditional Greek meal you have cooked, eating together with the rest of the group in the yard, under the stars. At the end of the class you will receive the printed recipes to take home with you, so you can practice again and impress your family and friends with your newly acquired talents!
