OVERVIEW

Learn to prepare a traditional Lithuanian dish in a hands-on cooking class and enjoy a selection of beers after touring the brewery that produced them. After a brief but enlightening drive through Klaipeda, you will meet the chef at an esteemed culinary studio. While enjoying an iconic summer appetizer of pink beet soup – served refreshingly cold – the chef will regale you with stories about the roots of Lithuanian cuisine. You will then learn how to make authentic potato pancakes, a flavorful crispy dish topped with sour cream, applesauce or perhaps a concoction that the chef has in mind. After sampling this freshly prepared treat, you will head for Svyturys Brewery for an inspiring tour and another tasting. Svyturys brewed its first beer in 1794 and has since become a beloved brand. The esteemed brewery offers a remarkable variety of beers that includes hefeweizen, dortmunder, German-style bock and Scottish ale.
