Chef Francesca’s pasta making class was an amazing experience! She is very warm and welcoming while also incredibly knowledgeable about authentic Italian cooking. She shared a recipe from her home island Sardinia which was delicious! Would definitely recommend her classes to beginner cooks and experienced cooks, no matter what you will walk away with a smile, new knowledge, and a full stomach!
