Love authentic Italian food but can’t hop on a plane to Italy every time you crave it?
We’ve got the next best thing! Join us for a hands-on pasta-making class where you’ll learn to craft fresh pasta completely from scratch- using simple ingredients you probably already have at home.
In this hands-on class and under Chef Boni's expert guidance, you will learn how to make Mafalda pasta from scratch, paired with a creamy vodka sauce. Mafalda is a beautiful ribbon pasta with a wavy edge. This charming pasta was created to celebrate the birth of Princess Mafalda, born in 1902 to Vittorio Emanuele III, the last King of Italy.
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, most of which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the cooking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).
Please arrive 15 minutes early to allow time for parking and check in. Street parking is available around the venue, as well as a paid parking garage at the Holiday Inn just next door. You will be seated with your booking party. The nature of our classes is set up so that booking parties will work together during class, sharing both ingredients and equipment. This class is BYOB. Beer and wine is welcome for those over the age of 21.
