Great experience for my family of four. We were welcomed with open arms into the host home. We felt like we were actually visiting family with this experience.
The most authentic experience that we could have. We learned so much🌹we learn how to cook a tiramisu, then the past and tagliatelle. it was just amazing 🤩 we loved 🥰 every minute of it 🙏 thank you 🙏
Enzo and Christina were wonderful, gracious hosts. The food was amazing and we learned much from them.
Mauro and his wife were wonderful hosts. Beautiful house with a pizza oven in their kitchen! The food was delicious, we got to help cook it ourselves. Loved making the homemade pasta. The wine was very delicious too. Pizza was so good, so was the apple cake. I would do this again with the same people if I ever come back!
There were some hiccups in communication getting the class/arrival arranged, but once we figured it out, we had a great time. Cristina has a passion for food that shines through and we were happy to have her share her expertise in pasta making with us. We went home full!
Christina was an awesome teacher. We made the most fabulous tartelli. Can’t wait to try to make it at home! Beautiful lunch with parmigiana soufflé and wine. Husband Enzo very welcoming sharing his stories and garden. Funny guy! All in all a fabulous experience. Would highly recommend!!!
What a fantastic time spent at Christina and Enzo’s beautiful home in central city Parma. The instructions were clear, the food was authentic and delicious and it was the highlight of my few days in Parma! I highly recommend this, no matter your level of cooking. I will definitely go back!
My wife and my parents signed up for this not knowing what to expect. We were so happy we did. Paola was a fantastic host and we had a great time making pasta and famous Parma dishes. Her husband Mario joined us for dinner and we had a lovely time speaking to them about Italy and the world during dinner. Mario even drove us back to our hotel when we were concerned about finding a taxi. A highlight of our trip to Italy, it was really everything we were hoping for. Thanks Paola and Mario!!!
