What a great class! My partner and I went for a date night and it did not disappoint. Chef Luana’s class was the perfect mix of learning to make a dish and having the “hard parts” done for us (making up the appetizer, cooking the pasta, etc.) although this was done in a sort of demo style. Who knew gnocchis were such hard work! We brought some leftovers home and look forward to enjoying them in the future. The dishes were beautifully displayed and tasted delicious. She was mindful of dietary restrictions and offered great alternatives so everyone could enjoy their meal without having to make a sacrifice. I highly recommend this personal class, it was quite the memorable evening.

My girlfriend and I had an incredible time in Chef Luana’s gnocchi-making class! The food was absolutely delicious, with generous portions, and she went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a wonderful experience. Luana was extremely patient and took the time to explain every step thoroughly. She even treated us to a couple of delightful extras. We highly recommend her class to anyone looking for a fun and tasty culinary experience!
