Small Group Market tour and Cooking class in Modena

What a delightful experience. Elena was a wonderful host, great teacher and her home was lovely. We walked to the market and had a great experience as she taught us about the various cheeses and we also met with a woman who covered balsamic vinegar. Our group of 4 added to the meal with some cheese, fresh cherries in season and chocolate. Back at her home we prepared a dessert and then the dough for for our pasta. It was great fun learning of her family and life in Italy. The meal was wonderful with wine and we ended on time.

Lovely tour! Great afternoon with wine. Memories forever. Made delicious pasta, wonderful experience

The day started a little confusing. The address took me to the city plaza Duomo with no further directions. It would have been helpful to know that the host would meet me there in the square. The rest of the experience was awesome. We began with a visit to the market to gather a few supplies. The pasta and tiramisu were amazing! I was even given the recipes to take home!

Maria Louisa was wonderful! It was a lot of fun and the food and treats were amazing! She was a great teacher and we had no problem communicating with us having NO italian and her little bit of English. That was part of the fun. We got printed recipes for the tiramisu and her home made ragu that was very tasty. We can't wait to try all of this at home.

Wonderful experience in our guide’s apt. We also sampled some fresh fruit from her garden. Would highly recommend

We had a great experience shopping and cooking. Definitely a highlight of our trip. We learned how to make a yummy Ragu pasta dish along with a delicious apple pie/cake.

Rafaella was amazing! She taught us how to create pasta and tiramisù! The visit at the market was fun, seeing her purchasing fresh products. Luckily we were only 2 and we had the chance to taste different balsamic vinegars. Grazie mille!

Friendly hosts, making pasta, lovely home setting, help with shopping.

Enjoyed our conversation. Did this fire fun and it was fun to do!

Maria Luisa, her wonderful friend, and kitty Slash were the best of the best hostesses! We had so much fun cooking with her, but getting to know them was even better than the delicious pasta and tiramisu we made! This experience was a great way to get away from crowded touristy areas and well worth the expense!

Going to the market was an amazing experience!! We learned many things about vegetables and cheeses (and more). Those items were unknown to us in our country. We also were able to taste balsamic vinegar that was 12, and 25 years old. Awesome education.

The cooking experience was interesting, but I will probably never create handmade pasta/tortellini again. The tiramisu was fun and delicious. I was under the impression that we were making an appetizer also, but that didn’t happen. Maybe my misunderstanding. All in all, a great experience!
