Our hostess was an excellent teacher, knowledgeable, and very personable. We learned a lot about the culture of the area through food. I highly recommend it!

The host did not show up for the class. We waited at the meeting point for 30 minutes, tried calling and texting the host several times, no answer so we requested a refund.

Our experience

It was not worth the cost. The teacher was late, we did not know where to park and got a ticket, there wasn’t enough direction, the appetizers were given out with napkins or plates felt disorganized We had to ask for wine and then just bought our own bottle to share with the group. Very inattentive we finally left not sure if they ever brought coffee like advertised

Fun, easy, and yummy class!

Fun little class with a few other couples. Our talented chef taught us how to mix and make the raw pasta, then how to shape and form orichiette by hand. We drank along the way and ate our pasta cooked with a lovely tomato sauce and more wine. Takes 2 hours, but make sure you aren't on a tight schedule because it might start late...as they say in Italy, "Piano, piano..." (slowly, slowly).
