Pierogi making and Christmas Party (private event)
Pierogi making and Christmas parties for small groups at my kitchen in Salwator. This is a great idea for an office party in a cozy home atmosphere… with a glass of mulled wine in hand, we can make Christmas pierogi together, and learn (and taste!) more about the traditional Polish Christmas. Together let’s make the world’s best barszcz and have some fun. Workshop + supper + drinks (minimum group size 6, maximum group size 15).

For the last 12 years, I have been teaching people how to cook delicious food at my home, and I also run food workshops such as the Pierogi Power Workshop, Fermentation Workshop and more. Recently I was the host of a big food event for The Krakow Pierogi Festival and Harvest Festival. (I also appear regularly on TV and radio as a guest, discussing subjects related to home cooking, the sharing economy and food tech.) I’ve always enjoyed sharing my knowledge of my beautiful hometown, and more about the art of Polish cuisine, both through the website and with all the wonderful travellers I meet in person.My grandmother and my mother were great cooks. That means delicious, home-made food freshly-prepared.Restaurants are great, but sometimes it seems it would be better to enjoy a home-cooked meal with someone who can also tell me a bit more about their experiences, their lives and their cities. So, I’ve decided to do exactly that. I cook for up to 14 people at my home in Krakow and you’re invited. Please join me!

We always try to do a cooking class when we travel to Europe, delighting in learning to cook the specialties from the country we are visiting. They are usually one of the top highlights of our trips. Marta’s Pierogi cooking class was definitely a top highlight of our trip to Poland and one of the best cooking classes we have done. There were only six of us, which made it an intimate experience. Marta welcomed us as if we were family. Her love of cooking and love of Krakow was so evident and contagious. After making our Pierogi, we enjoyed a delicious meal of salad, our pierogi master pieces and sausages. We then delighted in Marta’s fabulous cheesecake with salted caramel sauce. The entire experience was perfect!
Fantastic experience with an experienced chef. The whole meal was delicious.
Wonderful time!
It was a great experience. The food we made and the food Marta made was delicious. We would recommend this place to everyone who likes to try cooking from another culture.

Marta is lovely, warm and welcoming, and the whole experience takes place in her home in a very special and cozy atmosphere.
We learned how to make pierogi completely from scratch, including the dough and fillings, and at the end we sat down for a full meal, not just a tasting. Everything was delicious, generous and beautifully prepared.
It was one of the best experiences of our trip to Krakow, both a fun activity and a wonderful meal.
Highly recommended, definitely not to be missed ❤️🥟
A very good and heartwarming cooking class. Can really recommend for others.
