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!

Amazing class. Such a cheerful pleasant and knowledgeable chef. The timing wasn’t rushed the explanations were clear. The menu was delicious the interaction was 100% positive. We gave this as a gift to grandma for Christmas she cried after dinnerAnd said it was one of the best experiences she’s ever had. Watching her make the pasta with the kids was priceless. Magical memories. Thank you Kimberly + family

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.

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!

What a great experience. We had so much fun in this class! Chef Stefano was great- he made the class really fun and offered up a lot of great tips for us as we had to modify our recipe to be gluten free. Everything turned out amazing. We would love to take another class from Chef Stefano! :) Thank you!

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.

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

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)

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.

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.

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. 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!

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

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.

I really enjoyed this lesson. I learned much different ways to prepare eggplant parmigiana than I was doing. ?
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.
