My husband, daughter, and I cannot say enough good about this experience. Never having made pasta before or really anything Chef Matteo taught us, we left feeling we could go home and surprise our families with authentic Italian foods and dessert they will love as much as we did. Chef Matteo makes it fun and 100% hands on. Was fun for adults and youth. Food was extraordinary and we felt we were learning some family secrets at his beautiful home. A must do in Turin!
Our experience with Mateo was wonderful! We had the honor to spend several hours in his home one on one, learning how to make pasta and the filling for the ravioli and tortellini, a vegetable dish and garlic sauce, and tiramisu. When everything was ready we then ate what we created at his dining room table along with a glass of wine and an after dinner liqueur. Such a unique experience that went way beyond our expectations! Mateo is such a kind and generous person and my husband and I will always cherish our time with him. We were so fortunate to have the private instruction and will soon purchase a pasta machine to begin making our own pasta at home!
I had great communication with the host/chef regarding details on how to arrive at location. The environment was very warm and friendly. The instruction was very thorough and I learned so much. I was introduced to everything from vegetables I had never used before to using a pasta machine and even knives and how to use them. I learned about the local cuisine and the history of how recipes and methods have evolved over time. I enjoyed dining with Matteo and his wife after we had prepared our meal. I highly recommend this experience with Matteo.
The most memorable was when Matteo had us make a Pesto using kale and walnuts. We found it surprisingly tasty, having only had basil and pine nut based pesto in the past. Delizioso!
Matteo was incredibly courteous and accommodating. He explains everything well but also insists on you learning a lot yourself by doing. Highly recommend, incredible environment.
Hi! We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed your Eatwith experience in Turin. Our mission is to bring people together around food and Matteo does just that! Thanks for your great review and see you soon at another Eatwith somewhere around the world!
My in-home chef instructor, Matteo was wonderful! Matteo went that morning to a local market to get fresh ingredients. It was so fun and I learned so much! Many things that I can repeat on my own, and he sent many recipes and places to eat in Turin. Plus, I feel like I got an insight into a true Italian home, cuisine and area. It was very intimate. I highly recommend this for someone on their own, like me, or a group!
Hello Kavitha, Thank you for sharing this outstanding review! Your hosts loved adding a savory delight to your day and look forward to seeing you again. Food truly cultivates unforgettable experiences. Join us at another Eatwith table soon!
My daughter, granddaughter, daughter-in-law, and I enjoyed our experience with Matteo so much! There were just the 4 of us. Matteo kept us laughing and entertained. His apartment is tiny but very organized. He kept everything flowing in perfect timing. We made our own pasta with pesto sauce and other side dishes as well as tiramisu. He is very knowledgable. My d-i-l is a dietician, and was able to discuss food in depth with him. We loved it!
