What a perfect afternoon we had with Nona Lu, making pasta with premium ingredients! Both of the sauces were absolutely delightful, and to top it all off, Chef Luana was such a warm, knowledgeable, and engaging instructor. Thank you for the unforgettable experience! --- Would you like help tailoring it for a specific platform or audience (like Yelp, Instagram, or a thank-you card)?
