The Highlight of our Trip - Cooking with Barbara Quinto!

Deb_N, Oct 2024

Our cooking class with Barbara Quinto was the highlight of our 9 days in Italy! She was so warm and friendly and the food we made was absolutely divine. She was open to all of our questions about Italian life and cooking. Eating together on her patio after we finished was just magical. All four of us are motivated to make homemade pasta now that we've been taught by an expert. Barbara is just a delight!
