Enjoy a cooking class
An evening cooking class and a dinner to remember!
Step into the home of Harikleia, one of Andros’ most beloved local cooks, and discover the true meaning of Greek hospitality through an unforgettable evening of cooking, storytelling and sharing food around the table.
Your experience begins in the peaceful village of Livadia, just outside Andros Town, where you’ll be welcomed with homemade lemonade, freshly brewed tea or coffee, and traditional Greek treats before putting on your apron.
Harikleia has devoted her life to preserving the culinary traditions of Andros. Over the years, she has prepared countless family celebrations and weddings, appeared on Greek television cooking programmes, and inspired younger generations by teaching children the joy of traditional Greek cooking.
Together, you’ll prepare authentic recipes using fresh seasonal ingredients and local products, while discovering the stories, customs and flavours that have shaped the island’s rich culinary heritage.
As you cook, you’ll learn about Andros’ exceptional local produce—from artisan cheeses and fragrant herbs to seasonal vegetables, local honey and olive oil—while gaining practical tips you can recreate back home.
Once everything is ready, you’ll gather around the table to enjoy the meal you’ve prepared together, accompanied by local Andros wine and genuine Greek hospitality.
Before you leave, you’ll receive a small Goodies Bag containing local honey and traditional tsipouro, a delicious reminder of your time on the island.
