Cooking with Mauro and Natalia in Parma
Great experience for my family of four. We were welcomed with open arms into the host home. We felt like we were actually visiting family with this experience.

Highly recommend cooking with Mauro and his wife!
Mauro and his wife were wonderful hosts. Beautiful house with a pizza oven in their kitchen! The food was delicious, we got to help cook it ourselves. Loved making the homemade pasta. The wine was very delicious too. Pizza was so good, so was the apple cake. I would do this again with the same people if I ever come back!

Good fun
There were some hiccups in communication getting the class/arrival arranged, but once we figured it out, we had a great time. Cristina has a passion for food that shines through and we were happy to have her share her expertise in pasta making with us. We went home full!
