It was great fun and our gnocchi was delicious. Francesco was very knowledgeable and friendly. We learnt how to go further than the "supermarket" gnocchi, and make a genuine gnocchi da Padova. Especially liked how to do the garlic in the sauce. 5 stars.

Chef Francesco was knowledgeable, efficient and well able to give instructions in simple terms which made the experience very relatable and enjoyable. The concise instructions will ensure that I translate this experience to my own home cooking

Francesco is definitely a professional! Not only did he give me great tips on successfully making gnocchi, but he shared a lot of history about the city along the way! He’s a worldly Italian with great energy and enthusiasm!

Francesco is a super friendly guy who offers much more than a simple cooking class, but a complete immersion in Italian gastronomy. He really knows his stuff and is passionate about sharing what he knows. Highly recommended !
