5.00Great experience for me, my mom, and my two teen daughters. Our host “Cereal” made it so fun. He said it was his first time teaching a class but he was a natural with everyone from little girl to grandparents. We learned a lot and laughed a lot.

5.00We had a family pizza making session. There were 2 other families/parties there and we had a great time. The admission is a bit high but the length of the session made it more worth it. The atmosphere is very much like a commercial kitchen and was cleaned constantly. Our teacher was well skilled in pizza making along with the history of pizza which was nice. Then, we made the pizza dough. It's not a fast process; expect a bit of a workout for your hands and arms. It is worth it, though, as you will eat some of the best pizza you have ever eaten... made with your own hands!
