Mariana was excellent! Fantastic chef, beautiful apartment, and the meals were delicious. She even sent us home with some leftovers!

Amazing food! Amazing chef! Amazing location! Guess what….we had an AMAZING time!!!! From start to finish laughter, learning and delicious food! Chef Mariana is a great chef…knowledgeable & she made our anniversary oh so special!!!! Thank you!!!

My girlfriend and I had the best time celebrating her birthday with a rustic Italian cooking class in Chef Mariana’s beautiful kitchen! Such a comfortable, fun environment with a gorgeous view of the river. We will absolutely be back for a sushi class!!

What an amazing experience! I decided to do this class with my partner for her birthday and we had such a great time. Chef Mariana is incredibly knowledgeable and very kind. She taught us to make fresh pasta, a classic bolognese sauce, a Carbonaro sauce, an eggplant appetizer, and a tiramisu for dessert. We laughed and discussed food, life and everything in between. Chef Mariana thoughtfully answered all our questions as we went through the process and was very encouraging. Her space and the environment she created was professional, clean, and the view from her windows, overseeing the water pulled the whole experience together. The food was soooo good! She served us and because it was my partner’s birthday, she put a candle in her tiramisu. It is obvious we had a great time? Lol. Honestly, if you’re looking to learn from a pro who makes the process simple and fun, Chef Mariana is it. My partner and I would definitely do this again. We had a beautiful time!

Chef Mariana welcomed us into her house and created such a warm atmosphere. She guided us through every step of the cooking experience, and we ended up making four delicious dishes. I truly recommend this class to anyone who wants to elevate their cooking skills and have fun!

Mariana was a great teacher and we learned a lot from her! She’s a gracious host and made us feel at home in her beautiful apartment. We came out of the the class with a better understanding of how to cook classic Italian meals.

I had the pleasure of attending an in-person cooking class led by Chef Mariana, and I must say it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Chef Mariana's expertise and passion for cooking shone through as she guided us through the art of pasta making. Her explanations were thorough, making the process easy to understand, even for beginners. The class was a delightful blend of learning and hands-on experience. We not only learned how to make two different types of pasta but also received detailed instructions on crafting a delectable vegetable Bolognese sauce and mastering the intricacies of crafting a perfect tiramisu. Chef Mariana's teaching style was engaging and patient, making the whole experience enjoyable and educational. What stood out was Chef Mariana's flexibility and attention to individual needs. She graciously modified the menu to accommodate my dietary restrictions without compromising on taste or quality, ensuring that everyone could fully participate and enjoy the dishes. The setting for the class was equally impressive. The apartment where the cooking class took place boasted one of the most breathtaking views of the city I've ever seen. The combination of great food, expert teaching, and a stunning backdrop created an ambiance that was truly unforgettable. I highly recommend this cooking class to anyone looking for an exceptional culinary experience. Chef Mariana's skills, along with her accommodating and knowledgeable approach, make this class a must-do. I'm already considering returning for their sushi class, as I'm confident it will be just as exceptional as this one. Whether for friends, family, or personal enrichment, this cooking class is a culinary adventure that's worth every moment.

Wonderful in every way. Informative and I have learned a skill I will take with me forever. All of it was delicious and what a labor of love!

Mariana was super sweet and informative. I really enjoyed the dishes that we made. We made so much spaghetti that we were too full to even make it to dessert!
