This cooking experience was FANTASTIC. The chef was so knowledgeable, engaging, fun and patient. The group size was perfect. It was truly hands-on…no sitting back and watching a demo. I am experienced cook and I learned many tips and my friend is a novice cook and it was perfect for her also. The food we made was delicious. I highly recommend!!!!

The 7 of us had the best time at their cooking class! We all highly recommend it. Of out time in Italy on a family trip with 3 generations, this was my favorite memory, we learned how to make homemade pasta and helped prepare a delicious 4 course meal. They grew most of their products and we got to learn about the science behind food preparation. Thank you so much!!!
