Olga was a wonderful chef and instructor! I now know how to make pasta and gnocchi from scratch and I couldn’t be more thrilled! 10 out of 10!
The class with Olga was very useful and entertaining. We enjoyed the process and also trying the dishes at the end. We will be cooking the recipes at home :)
Olga provided a wonderful experience learning to make fettucine, gnocchi, and tiramisu. She was very friendly and helpful throughout the entire event. Absolutely recommend for both couples and families
Olga was the best and I loved all her recommendations and learning about traditional Italian cooking
Great class. Olga did an amazing job.
Excellent family experience for my birthday, involved by Chef Olga who brought us even closer to the world of cooking while preparing fettuccine, potato gnocchi, and tiramisu. The welcome from the kitchen brigade and the table service throughout the dinner were beautiful. Until next time!
Funny and educational cooking class in English. Got great tips on technique and raw materials. Drinks for adults and children on the way. Finished with eating. Both me and the 9-year-old cost us.
Our family of four had an excellent experience learning how to make fettucini, gnocchi and tiramisu today. Mimi was the most attentive, engaging, knowledgable and patient teacher. We learnt so much about the history, background of the restaurant and the food we made. Mimi didn't just pass on the practical techniques, but we learnt a lot about the reasons why things are done in a certain way, and what happens to the ingredients. We all had great fun and were proud of our efforts. My son does not like coffee and Mimi went out of her way to prepare him a strawberry compote so he could make a strawberry version of tiramisu. We were able to take everything we made away with us, all expertly packaged by Mimi. We then had the most amazing lunch of a fettucini dish, some gnocchi and a tiramisu all accompanied by lovely wine. Such a great family experience for our last day in Rome and we take away great new skills and memories. Thank you Mimi and all the staff at Come 'Na Vorta!
I wish I could give this more than five stars. It truly was one of the highlights of our trip to Rome!!!. Mimi was an incredible teacher and an excellent chef. Hussein was so helpful from start to finish. It was without a doubt, the best pasta and sauce I had anywhere in Rome!
Mimi was wonderful. Taught us how to make pasta gnocchi and tirimisu. All was great. She even gave us places to eat in Naples.
