Chef Francesca is great! I would have liked a more hands on experience. Felt like we were made to watch her most of the time and I’m more of a tactile learner but I guess her place doesn’t allow for that. She made the sauces, so the student didn’t really get to try their hand at that either. This class is for the super novice student and I guess that’s not me.

Chef Francesca’s pasta making class was an amazing experience! She is very warm and welcoming while also incredibly knowledgeable about authentic Italian cooking. She shared a recipe from her home island Sardinia which was delicious! Would definitely recommend her classes to beginner cooks and experienced cooks, no matter what you will walk away with a smile, new knowledge, and a full stomach!
