Cooking with Angela was a woderful experience. She is a very loving person, she speaks very good English, is a great host. She is sharing everything she has, her knowledge about cooking as well as her 40 years old self made vinigar. She even opened a jar of self made orange jam to bake a cake with me. At the end she took a walk with me in her garten, where she filled my bag with herbs growing in her garten.604elizabethm

We took the class with Louisa and Ilaria on a visit in September. What a phenomenal experience. From the moment we walked in we felt like family and the pasta we made was outright phenomenal. It's not easy, but the work is worth it (think lots of kneading and flattening.) They were a great couple of women to work with. We had wine, there was music in the background and they helped us along. We made 3 types of pasta, tortellini, tagliatelle, and bowties. The initial item we started making though was the tiramisu, which was AAAAAMAZING! It had to be made first so it could set in the refrigerator. We filled the tortellini with the spinach and ricotta (learned how to make that too..Check) and put the Ragu (which is pretty much the best darn Bolognese I have had in my LIFE...sorry, getting excited about it) on the tagliatelle and the bowties. We had some wine, some giggles, took loads of pics and just loved every moment of life with these women. They can be contacted at [email protected] so if you are looking for an excellent class (with the work, so you can feel it...AND the recipes)..contact them and set it up. They also have a great little apartment for stays right in Modena. Not great for me as I have some walking difficulties and there were stairs, but perfect location in the center of town. If you are looking for an honest to goodness pasta making class in Modena with some wonderful women and lots of joy thrown in, and recipes included, contact them. They want to share the love and joy they have for good food. Happy gals and happy tummy's when we sadly departed after our afternoon of fun! Our hearts and tummy's were full. Thank you so much Louisa and Illaria~Rayelle_G

Elena was the most gracious teacher. Her English was much better than she thought. We looked things up with google to understand each other better. I learned so much from her. It was just fantastic. One on one learning little secrets to make my pasta better when I get home. If you are interested in making pasta from scratch, this is fantastic. We ate the stuff we made and brought home leftovers. So much fun and information. Even got the recipes later.JayKayEl30
