A great experience - Bea was a joy to learn from. She had everything highly organized, made her lessons seamless and was just fun to be around! We made recipes that that can be easily recreated at home at journey's end. I enjoyed the results and the wine pairings as well. Thank you for making it such a fun and comfortable experience.

Ottavia was a wonderful... - Ottavia was a wonderful host, chef, and teacher! It was so fun to make the pasta, and learn a bit about the chemistry behind pasta dough, the history of pasta making in Venice, and Ottavia’s experience as well. We also got a chance to learn more about where our fellow classmates were from and their travels. A great experience all around, highly recommend!

Awesome - It was great. The food was amazing. I would have liked to have been able to help with the sauce or ravioli filling. But still a great experience

A fantastic authentic experience. - A fantastic experience would highly recommend it. It’s in a beautiful old apartment in Venice. The instructor Ottavia was incredible. So friendly and knowledgeable made us feel so welcome. It was amazing learning how to make real Italian pasta from scratch. At the end you get to eat the pasta, drink wine and eat gelato. We loved every second of it and recommend it to all.

Wonderful experience - This was the first time we tried a cooking class while on vacation and it didn't disappoint. Ottavia was our host/chef and she was excellent. She was patient with the class and offered individual help to each participant.
However, there were two negatives with the class. The title suggests wine tasting wherein fact there was only one wine for tasting and only red wine. I only drink white wine so this was a disappointment. Secondly we were promised recipes and after 4 attempts to contact the company, I still haven't had a response.

Pasta making class - Fiorella was a great host , very encouraging and friendly . I just felt that the set up wasn’t ideal . Only one sink available for handwashing prior to handling food , fiorella was a bit rushed with 10 students and although we made the pasta we didn’t make the filling or tomato sauce and ‘creating our own flavour gelato’ as per the description was basically being given the choice of adding 2 flavours of syrup to an already made gelato which actually was very icy and not great quality . I have been to much better classes for less money so this wasn’t value for money
