So much fun - and cracking food!
I totally loved my evening cookery course at La Cucina Caldesi. Chef Stefano was great - really clear, engaging, fun and informative - and it was fun to try new recipes and techniques, and get to eat the results at the end (with some well-deserved wine). Looking forward to getting the recipes by email now so I can try and recreate it for the family.

RUSTIC ITALIAN FOOD
Stefano has a casual approach to teaching, which was also educational and efficient. All of the group of 12, participated willingly and any of our questions were answered directly and informatively. The night was extremely enjoyable experience, culminating in eating our surprisingly wonderful meal we had all created. Plus the added bonus of sharing several bottles of wine with our meal. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed myself and would consider partaking in another course here at La Cucina Caldesi

Great class with a great chef
I had a great night at Caldesi cookery class. Our chef was very informative and very charismatic! Only thing to improve it would be to take it down to around 10 people instead of 15 so it was a bit more intimate and you got to do a bit more. But overall great!
