"I attended a cooking class with my tour group that was put on by Chef Frattini at her farm. It was a delightful experience. She was engaging, helpful, and encouraging. Her teaching technique was a joy and the class found themselves quickly enjoying the process. The recipes were simple; the key was in learning proper techniques. The resultant dishes were proudly presented by everyone and later enjoyed around the dinner table. It was a major highlight of my trip to Italy."

"Nice food experience. The food was good but the portions not as in a traditional “osteria”. The good side of it was that at the end I was good and not feeling completely full. Good service and nice atmosphere"
