The course was a perfect mix of fun, enjoyment, and learning and is ideally suited for families - I never would have thought that a simple family outing in Münchenstein would turn into such a fun and unforgettable experience! During our stay with family in Basel, we were looking for a special activity and stumbled upon this pizza class. We were warmly welcomed as soon as we arrived. The hosts were incredibly friendly, likable, and attentive, so we felt comfortable right away. Together, we had a wonderful time and were able to learn how to prepare authentic Italian pizza. Our first attempt did go wrong—though that was clearly because I hadn't listened properly to the instructor's instructions. (My mistake!) With the second pizza, everything went perfectly, and the result was simply delicious. The dough was wonderful, the ingredients fresh, and the taste outstanding. The course was a perfect mix of fun, enjoyment, and learning, and is ideal for families, friends, or couples. We had plenty to laugh about and would come back anytime. An absolutely recommended experience

A MUST experience when in Basel area - We were in Basel for only a few days of a 2 week vacation through Europe. We were looking for something different to do and take a break from a typical restaurant experience and we found it with Fabio and Anita’s focaccia and pizza making class. They welcomed us into their beautiful home with a cocktail and appetizers in their garden then on to the hands-on lesson… what an absolute blast. We learned so much about the process and the importance of quality ingredients as well as their insights of living in the beautiful city of Basel. They are beyond thoughtful. It was my birthday trip and I don’t eat tiramisu which is on the planned menu/lesson but they quickly pivoted and we made a flourless chocolate cake. We feasted on the delicious focaccia, pizza and cake along with a bottle of Chianti and lots of laughs. This night was truly a highlight of the trip and we cannot recommend it enough!!

Authentic Italian recipes with experienced chefs - Our Italian cooking class was fantastic! We learned how to make tiramisu, which turned out to be wonderful. It was the best tiramisu we've ever had, and we made it! Making focaccia and pizza was easier than we imagined, yet the results were fantastic. Fabio and Anita are great teachers with years of true hands-on experience, they make the whole process a lot of fun. We highly recommend this cooking class. Learn and cook for your family and friends!
