Chef Maggie was a fun instructor - learned some of the tricks of making pasta and the difference between different kinds of herbs like between different types of basil, how to use parsley, benefits of cilantro. Fun to make two types of pasta and enjoy eating them as part of the class. Setting was ok - would have been nicer if prep and cooking area were larger and limits on electricity meant we had to wait a while for water to boil. But it worked out and we had fun!
