    Description

    Discover the authentic flavors of Naxos through a hands-on cooking experience that brings tradition to life. Guided by Anna, one of the island's most respected chefs, you will learn recipes carefully preserved across generations - from rustic pies filled with local produce to rich stews infused with the aromas of the Aegean.

    While your dishes are simmering, Anna will take you on a stroll through the village, where every corner whispers history. Admire the Venetian tower, the old cistern, King Otto's table, flourishing orchards, and the colorful gardens of traditional homes.

    The experience continues at Grigoris Tavern, a family-run establishment founded in 1964 by Grigoris Vassilakis. Three generations later, it remains a hub of genuine Naxian hospitality, where locals and travelers gather around a shared table.

    Finally, enjoy the meal you have prepared on the tavern's terrace overlooking the lush valley of Melanes - a feast of flavors, heritage, and warm companionship.
