Do not leave Poland without learning how to make pierogi. This is the perfect class to learn. They are very well organized and give clear instructions and take you step by step through every part of the process. The best part? Before you leave, you get to eat what you made and they are the most delicious pierogi in Warsaw! The day after, you will receive pictures and Granny’s pierogi recipe along with tips on what to see in Warsaw before you depart. I highly recommend!Read more

Great opportunity to get an experience with Polish culture. Can tell owner has been doing a long time and occasionally she’s a little short in a stoic kind of way when she needed things to move along. Got plenty to eat. Plenty of time to enjoy your creations.

Awesome way to learn how to make traditional pierogis! Class was easy to follow and the ladies made it very fun, adding personal touches along the way by sharing different Polish family traditions, and of course can’t go wrong with an assortment of pierogis to eat for lunch. My husband is allergic to dairy and it was accommodated with no problems at all; vegan pierogis were cooked first to avoid cross contamination, with vegetarian following and so on so everyone can enjoy. Can’t wait to bring this recipe into my own kitchen, thank you! Read more
