Chef was brilliant, entertaining and seemed to truly love his profession and cat. I understand that there are different meals and tours as buying fresh food at the market, which interests me and my wife for any future visits. I look forward to using the techniques we learned for guests and ourselves. Only one thing that my wife picked up on and I didn't was about something related to matching wines with the food. We didn't as I remember have any discussion concerning that aspect of our tour. If there are cooking tours in other places I would consider using Viator for those classes as well.

Terrific class taught by a chef who was both knowledgeable and funny. We prepared a delicious dinner and then ate what we prepared in the wine cellar. Bellissimo!

I thought that this might be awkward as I was traveling alone. It really turned out to be a highlight. The chefs were fun, the people in the class were very sociable and we ended up enjoying a great meal that we made ourselves. I came home with some great recipes and and techniques. I definitely recommend this class.

My wife and I had a great time in this class. The chefs made sure everyone was involved, and in the end gave us copies of the recipes. Delicious food!

The cooking class was something different from all of the museums, galleries and such. It gave us a chance to do something together that was enjoyable and hands on and the chefs were wonderful to work with.

Great fun, good food, met new friends from all over the world. It was terrific. BUT, the reviews you show talk about making gnocchi and tiramasu. That was not our menu at all. The chefs, when I asked them, said, 'Oh, that is Monday's menu.' Perhaps you could print the menus for the different nights. Then we could pick the dishes we really want to learn to cook. That part of it was disappointing. Don't know that I'll use the recipes we learned too much, but it was still an evening of great fun.

Really enjoyed the cooking class. I was traveling alone, so it was a great experience to learn the recipes with talented chefs in a great setting and then have dinner with the friends made that evening.

The instructors were talented and very personable. This evening was one of the highlights of our trip! The recipes for the class were challenging but the instructors broke them down into small pieces to make them achievable. And the meal was great!

Between our chef instructor and the group of folks we were paired with, this was a great event. It was little overbooked however and well above the normal amount but somehow the chef still managed to give adequate time. I would be careful on the booking numbers as the other 'half' of the group, did not have the same good fortune with their chef. The group was too large for him. Our's managed it but it was a challenge getting time to ask questions. This sounds like I am complaining but the description of the course said it included wine pairings with the meal. We did get a bottle of wine to share among 5 people but there was no pairing.
