A highlight of our trip! - It was so fun, and interactive. Wonderful way to learn about Italian culture other than museums. You will meet on a street corner- not as sketchy as it sounds- then everyone heads to the cooking studio. The chefs will break down all the steps. I actually left feeling like I could make an authentic pasta dish but I haven’t tried yet in the week I’ve been home. It was delish! Everyone in our family (6 of us- 3 teens) contributed and we made 3 pastas, sauce and dessert. It does take 3+ hours beginning to end. We had to sneak out a few minutes early because we had timed-entry museum tickets.
