Duration 3 hours
Cuisine is a way of life. It is simple without extra spices or flavour enhancers but only with a great amount of imagination.
If you are interested in Cretan cuisine, Greek food or you just love cooking, we invite you to participate in the Cretan traditional cooking lessons that are hosted in our home, in a small, traditional village close to the town of Rethymno we have cooked for many many years.
