February 9, 2022 Dorsey Hagwood

With its gondolas, canals, amazing restaurants, and unforgettable romantic ambiance, Venice is definitely a city for one's bucket list. Waterfront palazzos, palaces, and churches make drifting down the Grand Canal feel like cruising through a painting. To really experience Venice you must go to the opera or to a classical music performance, nibble fresh pasta and pastries, and linger in the exhibit halls of an art gallery. Label lovers will drool over the high-end shopping in Piazza San Marco.

I did this cooking class several years ago. The cooking class was excellent, so I decide to complete a six day cooking course with chef Isa during the last February. The chef Isa was extremely helpful, professional and friendly. The food we cooked was delicious. I learnt so much in terms of techniques and tips. This is a great cooking course: completely hands-on and from scratch!
