“Perfect. My wife and two children (ages 9) had a wonderful experience. The town of Frascati is amazing and easy to get to from Rome via commuter train. We came in early and hung around afterwards to enjoy some food and beverage after the pasta making. From Scratch was great from the beginning. They met us at the train station, gave a quick tour of the town along with some history.

The group size was good - only 10 people, which is a perfect size. I would say it is more a collective cooking class, where everyone gets to do some small part and mainly observe. Food was great, drinks were shared and later we also got the recipes on the email.”

“The chef was friendly, definitely an expert, and did a superb job teaching to the different levels of each student. She led us in making three courses which all tasted magnificent.

The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the…”
