Wonderful family experience in a local home - Andrea welcomed us into his home for pasta making. The 5 of us spent all afternoon here - made 3 types of pasta and a dessert. All were accompanied by local wines. He was very patient teaching us techniques including knife skills, blending herbs and flavors, and fine tuning pasta making. Conversation with Andrea was relaxing and we spoke about local products, climate impacts and world production of Italian products. This was an amazing day for our family.
