Online Cooking Class - Traditional Pasta Carbonara

Great experience. Chef Stefano's deep knowledge of the science of cooking helped when measurements or ingredient quality wasn't exactly right. Very patient and a good conversationalist. We did homemade pasta - having never made it before, I'm thankful I had a pasta maker on hand for the rolling and cutting.

Chef Stefano was amazing to work with. Would highly recommend to anyone! He taught my family his carbonara recipe and it was delicious. We were celebrating my Mom’s birthday and he made it a great evening. Very personable, friendly and fun! I messed up my dough for the fettuccine because I bought the wrong flower, but he helped save the dough by improvising using his knowledge of food and saved our meal!

Chef Stefano made Valentine’s Day extra special for our family. He was very patient and sweet with our 12-year old daughters and we all had a blast cooking together. The fettuccini and the chocolate cake were both delicious and perfectly balanced. Chef Stefano gave us great tips to enhance our skill-set and we appreciated his care about not wasting food. We can’t wait to cook with Chef Stefano again.

What a great class. Chef Stefano was friendly, knowledgeable, encouraging and so very patient with us. And in the end, the Carbonara turned out perfectly. Chef took his time explaining each step and gave us lots of tips to make perfect pasta and sauce. We highly recommend him and will definitely take another class in the future.

Chef Stefano's Fettuccine alla Carbonara class was great! I'm actually surprised at the price -- it was an amazing deal for what we learned/made. Chef was extremely knowledgable, helpful, fun, and clearly had a passion for cooking. I would highly recommend a class with him!

Chef Stefano's online class for fettuccine carbonara was fantastic! We attended as a Christmas gift for my wife and had a great time. He was inviting, patient, humorous, and laid back. We would absolutely do it again. Oh, and the meal was delicious!

Chef Stefano was absolutely wonderful and a master in his field. He was professional and informative with his step by step instructions and great zoomed-in camera angle work, while being patient and responsive to our individual questions - and we had many. Even though we went over our time, Chef Stefano never rushed us. He was also funny and charming. I wanted this to be something memorable for the holidays for my team since we couldn't get together in person this year. Chef Stefano definitely made it memorable. We all had so much fun... lots of laughing and delicious food.

Terrific evening spent in Chef Stefano's Traditional Pasta Carbonera online class! Super interactive and learned new cooking techniques which really opened up a whole new world of cooking, and baking (we made a chocolate cake too!) to us. Super challenging made it all the more fun. Really appreciated the Chef's added comments on the chemistry of ingredients and how they work together and why; he also gave alternative ingredient ideas and how to adjust the recipe for a favorable outcome. Just really great fun! Will definitely look for other classes taught by Chef Stefano.

Suzanne

Chef Stefano was incredibly friendly and informative. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience and would highly recommend taking a class with him in the future!

Deborah

07 Aug 2020

Positive - Chef Stefano was engaging, knowledgeable, and provided a number of tips for baking / cooking. The Carbonara recipe and experience was excellent. I also enjoyed the ability to interact on zoom. Suggestions - Provide reminder on reducing recipe for less than 4 people, and eliminate the Egg White Cake - it's too much to handle in 75 minutes and it added little to the overall experience. Maybe add a short module for people that have a Pasta KitchenAid attachment. Maybe... Overall, I enjoyed and will do another class in the futur.

Danielle

We had so much fun last night with Chef Stefano and many others from across Canada & US learning how to make Gnocci and Tiramisu! Chef was patient, funny, and very engaging. The class went for 3 hours, and it was like 4am for him in Italy! Would definitely do another class with him, really appreciated some of the history of the foods and culture also. Really fun night!

Robin

Chef Stefano was a great instructor. He was very helpful, thoroughly demonstrating techniques and answering questions. He kept a consistent pace, making sure everyone was on the same page before moving forward. And, considering it was 1am in Italy, he had great energy and good humor.

Kim

09 Feb 2021

We had Chef Stefano for a teambuilding event last night, it was fantastic! We had a phenomenal time...my only suggestion would be to advertise the true length of the class. Other than that, I highly recommend Chef Stefano and this class!

Jill

09 Feb 2021

Chef Stefano was engaging. The only recommendation is to let attendees know that this could go over 2 hours.

Cindy

We had a wonderful time last night cooking with Chef Stefano. We did it with our children in four different locations and it was so much fun. Ours turned out awesome! We enjoyed tiramisu for breakfast and looking forward to having some for dessert tonight after gnocchi for dinner. Thanks Chef??

Brandon

25 Jan 2021

We had a great time learning to make gnocchi and tiramisu with Chef Stefano! Chef Stefano was very knowledgable and friendly, and it was fun learning a new recipe! We had some difficulty following along at some points because we were simultaneously preparing the gnocchi and the tiramisu, and using different portions from the Chef. However, Chef Stefano answered any questions we had, and the food tasted delicious!

Logan

24 Jan 2021

Chef Stefano was easy-going and informative and kept us entertained for the whole 3 hour class. The food was wonderful and made you appreciate the complexities of seemingly simple dishes. We could not have been more pleased with the experience and will definitely participate again!

Kathryn

Stefano is a delight to work with. He is a very patient and encouraging teacher. It was my first time using boiling oil and I was quite nervous. I am no longer nervous and I know now how to be careful. Also, his zucchini salad was lovely!

Elizabeth

This was such a fun class! Chef Stefano was great! Will definitely take another class with him. Thanks!

Diana

Chef Stefano was incredibly fun and knowledgeable. He really takes his time to teach you and explain everything that you are doing. He also provides great tips which are very useful! Overall, he is a charismatic person, with great knowledge of food, ingredients and history! We created a delicious recipe and I am thankful for this platform that allowed me and my husband to take a class with him. He was also very responsive before hand when I had questions about the recipe and ingredients. EXTREMELY RECOMMENDED!

Great session I learned a lot and doing this with my work team was really fun. Loved all the extra detailed info that is not included in most recipes like how do you know when something is mixed enough / done enough etc

Ramy

11 Dec 2020

It was very nice experience, Stefano is very pleasant and competent. I would recommend other food than pasta as it really needs special ingredients (can be tricky)

Aleksandra

Great fun! Good guidelines!

Kevin

09 Dec 2020

Stefano was great to have as our guide for our team pasta making class! He patiently walked us through all the steps, shared some cooking tricks, and even provided some vacation tips for the next time we are in Italy!! Thanks for such a fun evening!

ILana

09 Dec 2020

Stefano was a blast. We, two couples one in California and one in Texas, wanted to have a double date and decided this was a fun way to do it as we could not get together in person. It definitely was! Stefano was really fun to work with and the food was delish.

Harry

08 Dec 2020

Stefano was patient, fun, talented, engaging and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Please be sure to tip our chef and send a receipt. Thank you.

A blast. Chef Stefano was great and very patient with a Zoom class full of us amateurs.

Michele

06 Dec 2020

Chef Stefano was really informative and had a great sense of humor. I definitely learned a lot and feel confident adding gnocchi and tiramisu to my typical dinner rotation. Chef was super patient, and stayed with us to the end (over 3 hours for a two hour class). It was easy to ask questions and show him the sauce/dough consistencies for feedback. I was cooking for two so I halved the recipes. I loved the online platform because I got to learn every part of the recipe in my own kitchen rather than divvying tasks with others. It was a great night, can't wait to try more classes.

Michele

05 Dec 2020

Very fun and great food!

What a wonderful way to spend our anniversary! I was looking for a unique experience to share with my husband for our anniversary and stumbled across Chef Stefano's Eggplant Parm class!

Chef Stefano was great! He was knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and "one of the gang". He worked with each one of us on fairly involved recipes, and went beyond the time constraints and followed through with us. Thoroughly enjoyed meeting and working with him.....highly recommend!!! *****

Ian

We had a blast cooking with Stefano!

Elizabeth

13 Nov 2020

Chef Stefano was great. Everyone loved the class and the meal turned out well. He was very patient working with everyone and answering questions. We look forward to doing another private class and would definitely work with Chef Stefano again! Only suggestion (for us Americans) is to provide a conversion for the dishes if ingredients are listed using the metric system. Different online sources provide different conversions and we found during the class that confused things - just would be easier to take out the guess work if the recipes were provided with verified conversions to take out the guess work for the chef, guests, and future classes!

Ashley

10 Nov 2020

Chef Stafano was knowledgable, patient, and fun! The recipes were DELICIOUS! It did take longer than the booking originally stated - we cooked for 3 hours! This was a birthday experience for my spouse during COVID and it felt just as fun as if we had been able to go out. Thank you!

Chef Stefano was excellent! A difficult task he had with our group of inexperienced Chefs, but he was a great instructor and made it a fun experience too. Thanks again Stefano!

Steven

29 Oct 2020

Chef Stefano was great! I cook frequently and even I thought the meal was a little complicated and stressful which clouded the experience. It seemed many people could not get things to whip/reduce correctly and caused confusion by taking longer than others and falling behind in the steps.

Mark

29 Oct 2020

He was great and very patient with our large group.
