Attending the cooking class during my visit to New York was one of my highlights from the trip. It was a small intimate class and the chef did a great job of explaining tips and processes for cooking. I highly recommend it.

10/10 recommend this pasta workshop 101! My friend and I decided to join the class as a part of our NY trip! Amazing vibes from the Chef and delicious food. I believe Chef mentioned the recipes would be emailed to us sometime after the class. Can’t wait to try to make the pasta for my family at home!
