Yummy pasta and tiramisu making!

We had an absolutely marvelous cooking class. It was the last night of our family vacation and such a perfect end. My entire family came home eager to make pasta and replicate the recipes. Guilia was a patient and gracious teacher and made everything look easy. We highly recommend this experience and plan to take more cooking classes on future trips.

Wonderful experience in an amazing setting!

What a lovely experience! Barbara and Stephen were warm and welcoming, and the gorgeous setting couldn’t be beat! My daughter and I enjoyed learning and trying our hand at making bruschetta, gnocchi, and a fabulous fruit and cream dessert, then got to sit down and sample the fruits of our labor. It was a relaxed and memorable evening of fun, and I highly recommend it!
