Cooking Class for Studying Abroad - The class was awesome and very experimental. It was very hands on learning and I enjoyed every class! Not only did we learn as a class to cook, but we learned the different types of ingredients and why they are in certain meals!

Pizza and Gelato making with Florence Food Studio - This was one of the highlights of our Florence visit. We made pizza and gelato with Giorgio at Florence Food Studio. His space is amazing as well. I wish we had more time and could have done the pasta making class as well. He was a great host and teacher. The space is beautiful and a short walk from the Ponte Vecchio. Make room for this on your itinerary especially if you have kids.

Yummy and educational experience - Our family loved this experience. It was extremely informative and fun at the same time. We were fortunate that it was just the five of us (all adults) so we were able to be ourselves and also receive personalized attention. The pizza, wine and gelato were all yummy. Chef Georgio was an excellent instructor in a terrific setting -- highly recommend!

Fantastic Experience! - Very welcoming, warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional group of people! This was not a fluffy, dummied-down audience-participation experience: we were taught techniques, recipes, and the theory behind how they work. Our children were involved all the way as well, including measuring ingredients, separating egg yolk/whites, making/kneading dough, etc. Our group size was 9: our family of 4, another family of 4, and a single traveller. It was the perfect size. Our meal was so enjoyable - Chef Pinto offered us wine, beer, & soft drinks, to enjoy with our pizza, gelato, sorbet, and cookies - all made by us! Very efficient team assisted us throughout, and the commercial kitchen was spotless, as was the attached, rustic prep and dining areas. A beautiful way to spend your morning - we highly recommend!

Disappointed! - This was NOT a fun experience. The instructor was nice, but not engaging at all. We rolled out some dough, put on some sauce and toppings and then all the pizzas get mixed up when put in the oven so you don't even get to eat your own pizza! It was absolutely absurd. The gelato making apart was boring with the instructor just doing everything while everyone tried to get a glimpse in the crowded little kitchen. Big time disappointment. I had booked this experience because the other more highly rated experiences were sold out. If I could do it again, I would not have booked this at all, saved my money and just spent my time elsewhere.
