Step into a real Cypriot village home and learn how to cook gemista — Cyprus’s beloved stuffed vegetables — using fresh ingredients and the traditional stone oven. This hands‑on cooking class in Pano Kivides invites you to prepare, bake, and taste a classic dish full of Mediterranean flavour.

You’ll chop vegetables, mix the aromatic filling, light the old fourno, and bake your gemista the traditional way. A vegetarian option is available, making this experience suitable for all dietary preferences.

After cooking, enjoy your dish with local sides and warm village hospitality. You’ll also receive a printed recipe card and a video link so you can recreate the dish at home without writing anything down.
