Greek "Taste of" Workshop #2
With an easy, warm manner, and a boundless enthusiasm for cooking, Despina will inspire you from the moment you enter her home. The beauty of Despina’s cooking lies in its simplicity and its reliance on the freshest ingredients. You will sit down to a welcome snack of seasonal Greek appetizers, such as Despina’s tangy, succulent stuffed grape leaves, which she will encourage you to dip in yogurt, and her bright, fresh potato salad. She will serve you Greek mountain tea, a medicinal herbal tea with a mild mint flavor that grows wild in Greece. At the end of the day you’ll go home newly inspired with all the recipes and a shopping guide to Despina’s favorite food markets.

I cannot say enough good things about Despina’s cooking class. She makes you feel comfortable the second you walk into her home, and she makes it easy to take part — even for people like me who never cook. If you have any interest in learning how to cook Greek meals, I’d highly recommend you take her session. Actions speak louder than words, though, and I loved the League of Kitchens experience so much that I’m going back with my mom to learn how to cook Indian food in the near future.
