Overall, a fun class. We had three couples in our class, so there was enough space and we didn't have to wait terribly long to use some of the equipment. The advice he gave us for getting the dough to the right consistency worked perfectly. We did feel that the instructions could have been a little more clear, but we both learned a lot and had a great time. We can't ask for much more.
