Cooking Together
Gather your team or friends, step away from the daily hustle, and take time to be together—whether it’s for a shared cooking session or a relaxed dinner.
Cooking together
Our hostess and head chef, Daire, who has studied various culinary cultures around the world and furthered her skills at an Italian cooking school, will take you on a private gastronomic journey through diverse food traditions.
Why is group cooking at OHH special? A journey through global flavors and stories.
Group cooking begins with culture and the logic of cuisine—why Greek food is simple yet profound, why Mexican flavors are so layered, how Indian spices create harmony on a hot pan, and why Japanese cuisine values balance and pure flavors. Each evening becomes a small journey around the world, offering new perspectives and a deeper understanding of where the flavors truly come from.
Professional kitchen with top-tier equipment
Cooking takes place in a real professional kitchen, using the same tools and techniques that Head Chef Daire employs daily. This provides an authentic culinary experience that is both inspiring and educational.
Menus that always succeed
All recipes have been tested by Daire and designed to succeed for everyone—even those who don’t cook regularly.
A culinary experience with your team
We explore cuisines from around the world:
• France – elegant flavors with the charm of simplicity, such as seafood bouillabaisse and creamy crème brûlée…
• India – aromatic and flavor-packed dishes like spicy butter chicken, delightful palak paneer, and India’s signature rich sauces, all prepared from scratch..
• Mexico – warm, spicy, and zesty flavors, such as handmade tortillas filled with roasted beef and spicy tomatillo salsa.
• Italy – tradition, technique, and heartfelt cooking: shape tortellini served in a creamy Parmesan sauce, learn to make authentic risotto, master the art of layering lasagna, and discover the secrets to a perfect, classic tiramisu.
• Greece – the warmth of the Mediterranean inspires classic moussaka, crispy spanakopita, and other delightful flavors that transport you straight to a sun-soaked island.
• Japan – clean and balanced flavors: delicate miso salmon, shaping onigiri, fermenting salads, and minimalist techniques of Japanese cuisine.
During the group cooking evening, you will discover both professional techniques and small home tips that make cooking special. The prepared dishes are a delight to enjoy at the long table on our sunny veranda, and we assist in pairing them with suitable beverages.
It’s an evening that brings your team together, fills the kitchen with joy, and creates the feeling of a mini culinary journey—all without leaving Haapsalu.
