Informative and enjoyable - Our guide was knowledge and kind. She was patient and encouraging, we learned so many interesting facts about the art and culture of pasta making.

One family sharing food and traditions with other families - An amazing class! We prepared traditional Tuscan pasta and ragu, but even more importantly our instructor shared her own family traditions with us. Definitely the best cooking class in Lucca!!
