Greek Date Night Cooking Experience

About This Greek Cooking Class

Transport yourselves to the sun-drenched shores of the Aegean with a hands-on date night celebrating the bold, fresh, and timeless flavors of Greece. Picture the sparkle of the sea, the warmth of a coastal breeze, and the inviting spirit of a Greek taverna where food, music, and laughter flow freely. This class invites you to share that same warmth as you and your partner roll up your sleeves, cook side by side, and savor the joy of creating a meal together.

You’ll prepare a vibrant feast that captures the heart of Greek cuisine. Start with arni me aginares, tender lamb and artichokes simmered in a silky egg-lemon avgolemono sauce, balancing comfort with bright, citrusy elegance. Then move on to garides saganaki, shrimp baked with feta in a luscious, spicy tomato glaze that’s as dramatic as it is delicious. For a satisfying crunch, you’ll make spanakopitakia, golden spinach-feta triangles wrapped in flaky pastry, perfect for nibbling between sips of wine.The meal continues with fresh, pillowy pita bread baked from scratch and a horiatiki salad, a classic village-style medley of ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, briny olives, and fragrant herbs. To finish, you’ll craft loukoumades—irresistible honey-walnut puffs that are crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and drenched in sweet, sticky goodness.This isn’t just about cooking; it’s about sharing a memorable experience filled with fun, flavor, and Mediterranean hospitality. Whether you’re looking for a romantic evening or simply a joyful night out, you’ll leave with full hearts, satisfied appetites, and a taste of Greece to carry home. Opa!

BYOB

We suggest a crisp Assyrtiko, a bright Greek Moschofilero, a light-bodied Pinot Grigio, a dry Rosé, or a luscious Vin Santo-style dessert wine.

ADMIT TWO

Each ticket admits two people! You don’t have to bring a romantic partner; friends, gal pals, adult kids, parents, anybody you want to share the cooking and eating with is great!

If you need to cancel within 30 days, but more than 14 days, you may switch your reservation to any other of our classes with space available (and pay the difference if necessary). If you must cancel within 14 days, you may exchange your reservation only if we can fill your space in the class.

If we cancel a class due to unforeseen circumstances or lack of interest, we will refund you in full.”
