We had a great time. The hosts are very welcoming and warm. We enjoyed cooking as a family which also includes our ten year old daughter and seven year old son. We learned how to cook a few Turkish recipes which we look forward to try at home. This activity is highly recommend to anyone who enjoys soul food in warm company while learning great cooking tips. Thank yo very much for the experience!
