Good to know
This suits anyone wanting to learn Italian pasta techniques in an intimate setting with expert instruction and good food—no prior cooking experience needed. Note: the class involves sustained standing and repetitive hand movements; it's not recommended for people with poor cardiovascular health. Coeliacs should avoid this experience as gluten-containing flour is central to the curriculum, though other dietary restrictions can be discussed in advance. The group size stays small (max 10), so you'll get personal attention. Wine is included and plentiful; tips and gratuities aren't included in the price. Infants must sit on an adult's lap if brought along.
