5.00From the moment Christiano picked our group up we were constantly entertained. His family kitchen overlooks the sea and the olive olive and lemon trees on their property. We made several dishes, drank plenty of wine and laughed a lot. Their limoncello was the best we’ve had!
Enjoyable day

2.00Pick-up was good. The location was beautiful—an amazing view, and the facilities were clean. The recipes were good. It was our honeymoon trip, so we didn't need our host/cooking instructor to be cheap, vulgar, and trashy. I am not an uptight person; I like to have fun. But having him pin down ladies to the table where we are cooking and stuffing whipped cream into their mouths, while making sexual comments, is NOT appropriate. This made our experience a bit sour. Also, I didn't appreciate being slapped in the ass by him with the wooden laddle. Again, NOT appropriate. Also, I didn't like the idea of having everyone dip their fingers on the same coffee jar to make the tiramisu. I know we all washed our hands, but it's a bit gross. I do NOT recommend this cooking class.
Beautiful setting and the...
