In the heart of Athens, a hands-on cooking class demystifies the art of crafting phyllo dough from scratch. Participants engage in three unique techniques—using a rolling pin, their hands, or the clever 'sunray cheat'—to create this delicate dough, learning its forgiving nature. Once the dough is perfected, choose from ten delightful fillings inspired by Greek flavors, including spinach, feta, and caramelized onions. While your pie bakes to golden perfection, savor three traditional dips and an olive tasting, all while enjoying complimentary drinks. This experience is all about connection, creativity, and confidence in the kitchen, making each bite a testament to the joy of Greek cooking.

Make phyllo from scratch

With a rolling pin — traditional and satisfying
With your hands — gentle and instinctive
The local “sunray” technique — a clever, easy shortcut
Try them all and discover how wonderfully forgiving homemade phyllo can be.
Choose your filling
Pick from ten Greek-inspired vegetable and cheese fillings and create your own combination. Keep it classic or add extra feta and caramelized onions.
Fill, fold and shape your pie, then let it bake until golden, crisp and fragrant.
While it bakes…
At our 11:00 AM morning experience, enjoy a freshly brewed Greek coffee, a tasting of different Greek olives, three traditional dips and a platter of Greek cheeses and local delicacies.
Then comes the best part: sit down together, break into your warm, homemade pie and enjoy the delicious result.
