    Fantastic way to experience Parma food

    Erica_K, Jun 2025
    Christina was an excellent instructor and very patient with my two younger children (10 & 7). She took time to make sure we understood and answered our questions patiently. Her husband Enzo shared photos of his scuba/travel adventures around the world while we ate the pasta (spinach and ricotta tortelli) we prepared. Highly recommend!!

    A superb event with a lovely couple

    We had a superb afternoon and early evening with Christina and her husband Enzo, a lovely couple who welcomed us into their home and treated us almost as family. Christina is an excellent cook; she showed us how to make tortellini pasta with two different fillings and even accepted our offer of "helping" her. We then ate a charming meal of parma ham, pasta, and creme caramel, accompanied by bread, wine and a homemade liquour. The visit was the highlight of our visit to Parma.

    Great hospitality!
