Highlight of our trip - This was such a unique experience and will easily be one of our best memories from our trip. We enjoyed making the different types of pasta and then learning the correct way to prepare bolognese sauce. The end result was one of the best things we ate on the trip. Grazia was so friendly and helpful in teaching us the proper way to knead, roll and shape the dough. We all can’t wait to put it to use back home!

Pasta making with our family - Amazing! - Brilliant 3 hours spent learning to make pasta, talking about Italian cooking and culture, then lunch eating the pasta we made with wonderful sauces made by Grazia. Went with 2 children aged 9 and 11 and they loved it!!!! Grazia was a wonderful host and a fantastic teacher. Would recommend for anyone, brilliant.

The most authentic Italy experience! - An amazingly authentic experience! Grazia was so hospitable and a great teacher and host. Our recommendation would be to look out for her messages through TripAdvisor / Viator to show directions on where the cooking class is - it is a bit tricky to get to, but so worth it!
