We had a wonderful experience in Antonietta's cooking class. From the first moment we met Antonietta, Piero and our interpreter, Victoria, we were treated like family and had a great time. In the cooking class, the group was small, so she always paid attention to each one of us and gave us appropriate advice. I learned a lot of things I didn't know because I had never made pasta from scratch before. As expected, all of the dishes were incredible and delicious. I would definitely make them at home to cook for my friends and family. This is a precious souvenir of Italy that we can take home and keep forever. Thank you Antonietta, Piero, and Victoria for a wonderful time!!

We were welcomed at the road, given parking instructions, and ushered to the porch where we were welcomed with a choice of coffee, juice, or water- the mango carrot juice was delicious. After introductions to our hosts and the interpreter, we were ushered into the home to a hands-on instruction session to learn how to make homemade pasta. We assisted in preparing the ante pasta of bruschetta and garlic toast. Afterward, we ate our handicraft and were served wine, cheese, olives, our bruschetta, followed by our pasta served with a simple tomato sauce. For dessert we had panacotta with fresh strawberries, vin santo & biscotti. The finish was coffee and limoncello. We toured the horse farm and saw the chickens, whose eggs we used in our pasta. Highly recommend Antoinetta’s pasta cooking class.

Het was fantastisch! Heerlijk om bij deze lieve mensen thuis te komen en te worden meegenomen in hun passie voor koken. Alle vragen worden beantwoord en er wordt lekker gekletst over alle daagse dingen. De tolk, wie ook enorm gezellig was, vertaald tussen door alles wat de gastvrouw te vertellen had. Het vertalen loopt vloeiend en voelt niet raar aan. We hebben nog wat messen en spatels gekocht die de gastvrouw ook verkoopt. De tolk heeft ons deze tip gegeven, want zelf drinkt ze hier niet op aan. We hebben heerlijk gegeten, bruschetta's, pasta met tomaten, tiramisu en limoncello. Tussendoor werden we voorzien van een lekkere wijn en wat fris. Al met al een top dag, we raden iedereen dit aan!
