What to expect
You'll arrive at Marina's residential kitchen away from the main tourist zones. The class starts with discussion of the day's ingredients and your dietary preferences. You'll be guided through preparation and cooking of multiple courses, learning techniques alongside the why behind each step. Expect hands-on work at the stove and counters, with Marina demonstrating and correcting as needed. Once everything's ready, you'll sit down to eat your creations with wine or beer. Weather permitting, this happens on the terrace with views across the city's quieter quarters.
