Top Kusadasi Cooking Classes

After a brief explanation of the dishes and their origins, we cook for 2 to 3 hours and then enjoy lunch or dinner with some local wine. We work as a group but you will be involved in each vital step of the preparation process, in the end you should be able to recreate the same dishes at home. We are happy to adapt to food restrictions if you are vegetarian, gluten lactose intolerant or have any other allergies, just let us know at the time of reservation and we will accommodate to the extent possible. For those interested in more than one class we have

The Kusadasi Turkish Bath and Hamam Experience with Transfers is a perfect way to immerse yourself in a relaxing and authentic tradition. You'll start in the Sicaklik, or hot room, to unwind your muscles, followed by a soothing soak and an expert soap massage and exfoliation on warm marble. To end, relax in the Sogukluk, the cool room, wrapped in soft towels, with the option to enhance your experience with an oil massage or take home a Peshtamel as a keepsake.

This is not a traditional cooking class focused only on recipes. In the peaceful village of Kirazlı, guests experience Turkish culture through food, conversation, storytelling and shared moments around the table. Along the way, we explore Anatolian food traditions, hospitality culture, village life and the history behind everyday Turkish dishes in a relaxed and personal atmosphere.
