Worth it! - Our first time cooking class was top notch! The food and demonstration was incredible. Our only suggestion is to allow the guests more hands on experience with the preparation, otherwise 5 stars!

Green Lasagna - This was another amazing cooking class that I took in Bologna. We made the traditional lasagne which is actually green from adding spinach to the dough. Monia and Francesca were very thorough on how to prepare a Bolognese lasagne, bolognese sauce and a gelato. In the interest of time, we were preparing the ingredients for the next class which was fine. We used the previous classes work to assemble the ingredients for our lasagne. We represented many countries from Denmark and Germany and USA and Scotland. This was a delightful experience.
