Our Icelandic cooking class in English, at lunch or dinner. Cook a three-course Icelandic meal under the guidance of a professional chef, taste traditional specialities along the way, then sit down together and enjoy what you’ve made. Drinks included.
Our classes run from two to three and a half hours, including the meal.
A professional chef, all ingredients, aprons and equipment, a full meal, and all the washing up and tidying done for you. Afterwards everyone gets the recipes and photos by email.
Most of our Icelandic classes are taught in Icelandic, and Cook & Dine in English. Each class page says which.

Our Icelandic classes are for guests aged 15 and over, and Cook & Dine for ages 7 and over, with children coming with an adult. Thinking of bringing someone a little younger? Just ask.
