Learn Wonders of the Kitchen for Kids Shot

Sign your kids up for this interactive pasta-making class with Chef Luana where they will learn all about kitchen safety and the rewarding feeling of preparing their own meals.

First, they will dig their hands into some fresh dough which will then be fried and served with traditional Italian toppings. Next, they will craft homemade fettuccini or spaghetti before whipping together a sauce all on their own.

I highly recommend taking Chef Luana’s classes. She’s very informative and passionate about her dishes. Her teaching methods are very hands on, which is very helpful when you’re making a dish for the very first time. She uses a number of different platforms with over 540 reviews in totality so don’t be misguided with only the handful of reviews she has on classpop.

I recently had the pleasure of attending Chef Luana’s pasta making class, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! From start to finish, Chef Luana displayed exceptional expertise, passion, and a genuine love for teaching. Chef Luana demonstrated each step with clarity, making it easy for everyone to follow along, regardless of their skill level. The hands-on experience was incredibly valuable and FUN. I highly recommend Chef Luana and her classes; she's warm, hospitable and made for great conversation.

Chef Luana was awesome tonight. Her genuine personality and attentiveness made the experience very enjoyable. I came in as a fettuccine person and left as a spaghetti lover.

We had such a wonderful experience with chef Luana! The food was incredible I had never had anything like it and I have had my share of Italian restaurants. Her story is so interesting and she is so welcoming. It is such a charming and fun experience!

Chef Luana was an AMAZING host and chef/teacher! The overall experience was 10/10 (really cool to learn from someone who learned these pasta techniques from her grandma in Italy) and the food was 10/10 delicious! You can really tell how passionate Chef Luana is about cooking and it was nice of her to invite us into her home. I would go back to one of Chef Luana’s classes!

Wonderful time with Chef Luana ! Took my boyfriend for his birthday and she had a happy birthday sign up when we arrived. Easy to follow, it is nice and intimate , plus she portioned enough for us to have some pasta to eat for the future ! She also made some focaccia and some tiramisu at the end . Awesome experience .

Learning from Chef Luana was such a fun experience! She's a master of her craft and is passionate about her recipes. And yes, the pizza was AMAZING! This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience (only because I live across the country) that I will never forget. I hope I can return to learn more from Chef Luana someday!

Omg this was a great class! We enjoyed the cooking experience. Chef Luana was patient, kind, professional and authentic! She is one of a kind and so is her husband who is there to assist as well. Thank you so much Luana! We will be using our newly taught Italian skills at home and we’ll be catering from you soon! My husband and I went for our 8 year wedding anniversary and it was such a unique and unforgettable experience. We will be definitely recommending it to family and friends. One tip I will give is bring your wine and comfortable shoes and clothes to wear. I wore heals and it was great but I wasn’t the most comfortable! But that’s a personal problem. Look cute if it’s a date but be comfortable ;) THE FOOD WAS AMAZING!!!! So come with an appetite for dinner, desert and leftover pasta and raw pasta to cook at home!!! You definitely get your moneys worth! Again, thank you Luana and your Husband for such a beautiful experience! Sending you lots of love and appreciation for such a great date :)

We had an incredible experience learning to make spinach and cheese ravioli with Chef Luana in her home. The class was not only informative but also so much fun! Chef Luana's expertise and passion for cooking shone through, making it the most amazing culinary class I've ever attended. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys hands-on cooking experiences. Best date night experience!!! Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity! 5 stars all the way!

Had a great experience during our classpop "Empower the Mind" Italian Classics class with Chef Luana! She went above and beyond in more than a few ways...she called before the class to make the ingredient list more fit to our preferences, put out a "happy bday" sign/ baked a choco cake for my boyfriend's birthday (without me asking) and was all in all, a wonderful presence to be around! Will definitely be back for more tips and treats w her :)

Such an amazing time and class! I did a gnocchi cooking class with Chef Luana and brought my work team. We had the best time. She was so attentive and spent a lot of time showing us proper technique. The food was delicious. On top of the great experience, Chef Luana is warm, engaging, and makes you feel right at home. I'll be going back ASAP with friends.

Top tier experience! Luana was very attentive, very hands on, lots of hospitality, and most importantly… delicious food! After she gave step-by-step instructions on how to make spaghetti and fettuccine, she served us as if we were in a high class restaurant. It was so cozy. She’s My aunt now lol.

Chef Luana provided us such a great experience! It was my first time going to a cooking class and I have no cooking experience at all. She was very patient and even showed us how pasta was made in Italy before the advent of modern tools. She served us homemade Bruschetta for appetizer (so good!) The rest of the menu is: Spaghetti ragu Fettuccine mushroom and sausage Fruit salad for dessert Chef Luana took care of us and we had an amazing dinner experience. I would definitely recommend!

Wish I knew how to leave a picture with this review! Cheers!

Chef Luana was a delight!! From beginning to end, we were eating delicious food with many ingredients imported straight from Italy. Her gnocchi class was so much fun and she made it easy for us novice cooks. We felt right at home in her kitchen and we certainly will be back to do more of her classes.

My girlfriend and I took Chef Luana’s homemade pasta cooking class, and it was excellent! When we first got there she provided us with some Amazing appetizers before we started cooking. She makes some amazing bread too! We learned how to make two kinds of pasta and both were great! We had a lot of fun with Chef Luana, and I would highly recommend this class to anyone. That was the most authentic Italian food I’ve ever had outside Italy!

This class does not have any dates.

Chef Luana

Chef Luana inherited her culinary passion from her grandmother. Born and raised in Italy, she found success as an entrepreneur after establishing a beachside restaurant in her home country while mastering the time-honored art of pizza oven cuisine. She is one of Italy’s precious few professional female pizza makers who utilizes wood-oven cookery. Chef Luana’s classes breathe new life into old-world recipes and traditional techniques as she passes her considerable knowledge to her students.
