Experience the best of
Athens with Withlocals

"Melina was warm and knowledgeable. We all learned something new to try at home and this made our time in Athens memorable. We appreciated learning and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Melina, thank you for your kindness."

"Melina and I discussed the menu that we would like to cook even we booked this experience. Melina is passionate about cooking ( you can find her on utube ) and her knowledge and experience shines through. My son and I are used to coking from scratch, but it was so good to learn how to improve. I have already incorporated her tips into my cooking, and what a difference. I would recommend this to others. We had a wonderful day with Melina. "

"It was definitely best experience of our trip to Greece! Melina is so warm, kind and giving and has the energy that makes you feel like you’re at home from the get-go! You will love her anecdotes, her insight into Greek culture and definitely her cooking hacks! She made my mother’s 60th birthday really special ❤️"

"Our evening with Melina was relaxing and informative. She creates an environment in which you feel at home in her kitchen. We ATE and completely enjoyed ourselves"

"We booked with Melina quite some months ago and from the first message we felt as though we knew her. Her warmth radiated throughout from enquiry to finally meeting. We had a 3 course cooking experience the beginning of September to kick off our honeymoon. Melina kept in contact leading up to the booking to ensure everything was to our liking and to accommodate my gluten and dairy allergy. The day itself was fantastic, Melina is warm, bubbly and knowledgeable her passion for cooking is obvious and you can tell she loves passing on that passion. We created a delicious 3 course greek menu with her assistance, she is happy to lead but encourage us to take part and learn the skills needed. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were made to feel like old friends reuniting. We can't wait to return to Athens and cook with Melina again, until then we will recreate the recipes at home Thank you so much Melina!"

"We had a brilliant day with Melina learning how to cook wonderful Greek food and I thoroughly recommend her course."
