Gabriella has a welcoming personality and puts people at ease immediately. She is a wonderful cook and teacher. We made homemade ravioli with a sage and butter sauce, and tagliatelle pasta with a lite fresh tomato sauce. We usually buy homemade pasta, but Gabriella encouraged me and my husband throughout the creative cooking process about the ease of making your own fresh pasta. She focused on the importance of natural foods and home grown herbs. We rolled and rolled our dough and the final product stood the test! A delicious and memorable dinner with Gabriella and her husband. What would an Italian meal be without dessert? Gabriella taught us to create from scratch Tiramisu! It was easier than I expected, and the best that we have ever tasted! I can’t wait to make this meal for my family.

The lesson was canceled. Because the reason, payment wasnt good. Very strange. We were waiting, nobody shows and then we read in the app the reason. Unfortunately ... but now I see the payment was correct. Please book the 270 euro back on my account.
