    It’s was a great experience. Mary and Nonni were excellent hosts, very warm and welcoming. Our group enjoyed hanging out, preparing the meal and then, of course partaking in the meal. That night felt like a warm hug as we all sat around the table enjoying each others company and listening as Mary and Nonni shared their stories of living in New York.

    It was a great experience cooking with our host. We felt very comfortable with the ease of the evening while learning different ways to prepare pasta and side dishes. The house really provided wonderful memories for us to share with each other. Communication was easy. Highly recommend this activity.
