Chef Paul was very warm and welcoming as we approached his cooking laboratory. He introduced himself, gave us his very interesting life and career background, discussed what we will be learning over the next couple of hours, then demonstrated the art of making pasta using handheld machines like they did in the old days. After squeezing the pasta through 7 layers of thickness he ended up with a paper thin and perfectly formed pasta slab. Then cut it into small squares rolling it in two triangles over a filling and then used his pinky to form a tortellini perfect smile. What fun this was. We followed his example in a most imperfect way making tortellinis that looked "unusual" for amateurs after only a brief lesson. But this still tasted good made better with the enocteca's excellent homemade Cabernet Sauvignon and pinot noir wines. My wife and I like to give each other "experience" gifts, and this one was made well by chef Paul. What a fun and fabulous evening. We'll look forward to Chef Paul's other classes.
