Overview

Itinerary

1. Stop 1 · 30m

   Your journey begins with a private transfer to the enchanting village of Mustafapaşa, an old Greek settlement. Upon arrival at the cozy lounge, you’ll be welcomed with a steaming cup of coffee or tea, as your host and expert chef weaves stories of the village’s rich history and culinary traditions.

2. Stop 2 · 2h

   Fueled by the warmth of the lounge, you’ll embark on a forager’s quest into the Gomeda Valley, a realm known for its diverse flora, hidden Byzantine churches, and age-old pigeon houses. As you wander the secluded pathways, surrounded by the valley’s untamed beauty, you’ll uncover wild greens, herbs, edible flowers and mushrooms—each a key to unlocking the culinary magic of this land.

3. Stop 3 · 2h

   With baskets brimming with your foraged treasures, you’ll head to the lounge, where the valley's bounty meets the kitchen's artistry. Under the guidance of our expert chefs, you’ll dive into the cooking process, learning how to transform your wild pickings into culinary creations. You’ll discover how ingredients like asparagus, sage, thyme, and sour cherries inspire the menu and how to incorporate them into delectable dishes and platters. And, of course, you’ll get to sample 4-5 seasonal mezes, prepared with locally sourced, geographically indicated products—each a testament to the region’s rich flavors and recommended by the chefs.
   Afterward, you’ll enjoy the delicious food you’ve prepared together, savoring every bite of your culinary creations.
