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!

The Pierogi workshop with Marta was awesome! We absolutely loved the session! From the introduction, making the dough, making the pierogis, and finally eating them! She even prepared other dishes for us! All in all, it’s a top star recommendation!
Toller und kurzweiliger Kochkurs mit super leckeren Gerichten! Man fühlt sich sofort wie zu Hause. Absolute Empfehlung!

After making the dumplings, we were also served everything from appetizers to dessert, and everything was delicious. If you’re visiting Kraków, I would definitely recommend this as a great experience to try!
Marta's class was great! She has a wonderful kitchen and was very welcoming. We learned a lot about the polish culture as well as how to make three different pierogis. It's a very hands on class and you'll learn a lot.
Had a wonderful time learning how to make pierogi with Marta! She was very knowledgeable and all of the food was amazing!
