We start the day in the Greek way with iced coffee and/or healthy mountain tea to get into the spirit of things. Once the introductions are over, we begin by making Stifado—an iconic Greek dish that is perfect for stress-free dinner parties. This is followed by various appetisers, including Spinach and Feta Pie, Dolmades, a spicy cheese dip, and an unbelievably simple yet amazing salad, followed by our delicious make-ahead Orange Cake to complete the menu.

All this is interspersed with stories about the island, its culture, and how the Mediterranean diet has come to be what it is today. There will be plenty of hands-on opportunities during the morning, products to taste, and wines to sample—you definitely won’t leave feeling hungry.
