Fantastic experience with a fun, knowledgeable professional chef. - Families By star rating All star ratings 5 stars Search reviews (e.g. guide) Sort by: Recommended P Patrick – United States June 30, 2024 – Verified booking This was a very enjoyable experience. Rafael was a fantastic host and instructor. The class was held in his home, which instantly felt cozy and comfortable. It was a small group of six students, which made it a very personal experience. This was a hands-on class, and Rafael had everyone participate to the degree they felt comfortable. He was very passionate about his craft, and his passion and enthusiasm were palpable. Before we started with the actual food prep, we had a glass of wine and talked amongst ourselves, getting to know a little about everyone in our group, including Rafael. We made pasta from scratch, along with both a red sauce and a white sauce. We also made tiramisu from scratch. When the food was done, we all got to eat the product of our labor, and it was delicious. The tiramisu was the best I've ever had. If you have the opportunity to take this class from Rafael, it will be a highlight of your trip!

Great Cooking Lesson Experience - Excellent experience all around. Rafael is a very skilled chef with extensive knowledge and passion for his craft. Very relaxed atmosphere in an authentic home setting. Delicious pasta, sauce and tiramisu, and the fresh basil from his garden was an extra touch! Highly recommend!

Your Sign to Take This Cooking Class!! - This cooking class with Rafael was AMAZING! Highly recommend. It’s a family style type of cooking class, so you’re joined by other people who have signed up, we had 4 others with us (6 total). It’s a little less hands on than I expected, but I honestly liked it more than any other cooking class I’ve taken! Rafael explained each step and why he was doing it that way and then let us try it ourselves. We all contributed to one big meal that we all ate together instead of each smaller group making their own meal for themselves. It turned out AMAZING! It was paired with local wine and all the ingredients were local. We also got a history lesson on Italy and the way Italian food has come to be today. Put your phones and vapes away and enjoy this unique experience, you won’t regret it.
