Authentic Greek Food in an Elegant Home in Athens with a Food Journalist - Day Trip — CALL

Traveling Spoon

OFFER ID 1306979

Angelina's interest in cooking started as a teenager watching her grandmothers and mother cook in their Greek kitchen. She was brought up with a variety of food cooked fresh every day; because she loves meeting people, she started to entertain guests. Angelina has worked as a journalist, both in magazine publishing and teaching media. She has traveled around the world and it was during her time living in South Korea in the 90s that she started offering Greek cooking classes. An active food blogger and member of the Slow Food movement, Angelina is passionate about sharing forgotten Greek recipes with travelers. Enjoy a traditional Greek meal at Angelina's home, an elegant apartment in a residential neighborhood of Athens. Dine at their dining table, or outdoors when the weather is good. You will start with mezze (Greek appetizers) like taramosalata, saganaki (a soft, fried cheese), tzatziki (yoghurt dip) or spanakopita (phyllo pastries), which will be followed by a main dish such as a whole fish, lamb and potatoes, garides saganaki (prawns in fresh tomato sauce with feta cheese), or traditional moussaka. For dessert, try Angelina's homemade karidopitta (sticky walnut cake) with ice cream or perhaps semolina halva with spices and homemade citrus jelly. When they are available, Angelina's husband and daughter will join you for your meal. If you book a cooking lesson, learn how to make 2-3 traditional Greek dishes such as spanakopita or taramosalata, cooking for about an hour before you sit down to your meal (which will also include additional dishes that Angelina will have prepared in advance). Please note, Angelina has limited availability during the summer as she is often on the island of Mykonos during this time; she is available for experiences in Mykonos during the summer.
