5.00From start to finish, we had the best time! Mateo was a great teacher. Our group was small so there was plenty of time to ask questions, and because our group was so small we also got to learn how to make waffle cones to enjoy with our gelato. We got to learn about some of the history of Margherita pizza and all the different types of pizzas made around the world. I would recommend doing this activity at the beginning of your trip, as Mateo gives a ton of local restaurant recommendations The cooking school is harder to find because it is inside the Milano centrale so definitely recommend trying to get there early in case you have trouble navigating inside the centrale.
