Silvana is a fab host, cook and teacher. My daughter absolutely enjoyed the ravioli making. They even catered to our vegetarian tastes. 

​

It was conducted in a very calm and comfortable atmosphere, it almost felt like home. 

​

Maria (Silvana’s mom) expertise and stories from Italy were lovely and enjoyable. 

​

Highly recommend this to everyone ... and it was a great bonding event for us. Thanks both!!"

Thank you for providing such a memorable experience. We had a fun time and went away with a practical skill. We had a lovely time and thoroughly enjoyed it.

A wonderful experience learning to make ravioli and a sensational tomato sauce. Highly recommend. We not only learned a new skill but enjoyed a meal with our hosts. What was promised was delivered ten fold.

Amazing knowledge, you make it fun and interesting especially for kids (6 yrs and 12 yrs). Tyler is already planning how to incorporate pasta making in his repertoire!

My two children and I enjoyed a beautiful morning of cooking lessons … making pasta, creating ravioli and enjoying lunch with these lovely Italian ladies and chefs. Can’t wait to come back to do more classes. So special.

We did a cooking class with Silvana and Maria and had a WONDERFUL time! We had ages 4 to 67 all catered for and able to participate. Silvana also was able to accommodate vegan and vegetarian diets which was greatly appreciated! Sharing the meal we made with the ladies was a highlight and not to mention super tasty! We will definitely do this again when next in Katoomba or surrounds.

The highlight of our stay was the Pasta & Sauces class taught whilst we were there and the bountiful and magnificent Italian lunch afterwards. We learnt so much, we hope to be back soon and often.

Best gnocchi class. I love these women, they bring authentic southern Italian cuisine to the table in a laid back home kitchen feel. AND SERIOUSLY THE BEST TIRAMISU EVER.

Kind and thoughtful instruction made it super fun for my teenage boys to get hands-on cooking experience. They have gained incredible knowledge and skills from a beautiful genuine Italian family. What a fabulous small business! I encourage you to check it out.

Thank you very much for the cooking class and your hospitality during the class. You have done more than we can expect. The children learn a lot from the cooking class and their parents were very happy with your service. Thank you very much.

We had a wonderful day learning Pasta making from these lovely ladies and very experienced cooks. Their genuine Italian generosity of spirit and family cultural experience gave us a very memorable day. I am really looking forward to more classes in the future.
