On the night that I landed in Greece, she had prepared her Lemon Chicken Soup. I immediately fell in love with the soup! The soup was simultaneously a new exotic flavor profile and incredibly comforting, making me feel right at home. Every ensuing meal only intensified that feeling! Alexandre Carlisle. Student in Greece in the Spring semester of 2018, Kitchen Manager at midnight Oil Coffeehouse

I studied abroad in Greece and ate exclusively Natasa' s cooking for 3 months and every bite was by far the best bite I had ever experienced! The pastistio is my absolute favorite!! Thanks to Natasa, I am a more creative and knowledgeable cook for my family and friends, and I always leave the social event with an empty dish! Miranda Lynn Farthing, student in the Spring semester 2015

After leaving Greece I was dying for one of Natasa' s recipes. Fortunately she was willing to lend me her lemon chicken and potatoes recipe and it was exactly how I remembered it. It was juicy with just the right amount of zest. LilyAnne, Spring semester of 2020

I made Natasa' s pork with raisins dish for classmates and they all loved it! It was easy to make and was so delicious! It made me feel like I was back in Greece. Tony Sharp, Spring semester of 2018

There is absolutely NOTHING that Natasa ever made that I did not like. I have made a few of her recipes at home, and her instructions are so easy to follow. They are a close second to having her food in person. Katie Beth Sharp, Spring semester of 2020

I have carried back home with me many things that I have learned from Natasa. One of my personal favorites is her steamed potatoes. Even though I am no longer in Greece, I frequently text her and ask for recipes. She will teach you everything you need to know about cooking! Mark Randall Potter, Summer semester of 2019

Chocolate mousse was amazing! I just had some with strawberries. My mom tried some and can't get over how good it is. Kristy Renae Tucker, Fall semester of 2018
