Amazing!! This is a must-do in Italy. Antoinette was simply amazing. Her home is beautiful, and she was the best chef to learn from. My husband and I enjoyed ourselves and learned so much! We felt at home, and welcomed.

Our experience was absolutely AMAZING!!!! Annamaria created an experience that our family will cherish forever! Her communication before, during, and after the event was beyond exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we immediately felt like family. She offered a beautiful balance of background, demonstration, and instruction to create a once-in-a-lifetime hands-on experience! Thank you again, Annamaria!! We will be back for sure!
