  • 5/5 from Alex McAlpine, attended Feb 2026: The teacher was great and the vibe was really welcoming and fun.
  • 5/5 from Michal Neufeld, attended Dec 2025: Amazing class! Had so much fun and learned a whole lot.
  • 4/5 from Nishaad Navkal, attended May 2025: Had a great time!! I think some more intentional demos of how the actual pasta shape is made would be good, its difficult to see from far away how exactly that should work. forming the shapes was the most difficult part. But had a great time, and the instructor was very fun and knowledgeable!
