Step into a real Cypriot family kitchen, where a mother and daughter welcome you with the warmth and generosity that define village hospitality. Together, they guide you through the making of Cyprus’ most beloved traditional dishes, sharing the flavors, stories, and techniques passed down through generations.

Begin by learning how to roll and season koupepia—Cyprus’ tender vine leaves stuffed with herbs, rice, and minced meat. Then, move on to makaronia tou fournou, the island’s comforting baked pasta layered with cinnamon-spiced meat and creamy béchamel.

Throughout the workshop, you’ll be hands-on: chopping, mixing, tasting, and learning the small family secrets that make each dish special. While the kleftiko is ready in the oven, take a break with some Cypriot coffee and a walk within the village.

When everything is ready, gather around the table for a cosy family meal. This is the heart of the experience—sitting together, enjoying the dishes you helped create, and connecting over food in the way Cypriots always have. Expect laughter, conversation, and the feeling of being welcomed into a home rather than attending a class.

Leave not only with new cooking skills, but with a deeper understanding of Cypriot culture, family traditions, and the flavours that bring people together on this island.
