Natalina's Kitchen

We teach authentic Italian Food Culture through "hands-on" classes, online classes, small group, domestic & Mediterranean food & wine tours. We published our first cookbook last year and have been featured in both Local and National Media over our 7+ years of teaching. We believe in taking the best quality ingredients and preparing them in a way that the ingredients shine. We specialize in the Mediterranean Diet and Southern Italian specialities. See you the kitchen!

Natalina is so warm and welcoming in her very amazing and professional kitchen, what more could you want? Premium Italian ingredients and two amazing recipes (we did the pasta two ways class), both were really delicious and taught us a few new cooking techniques as well. Whether visiting the Guelph area or whether you live here, a cooking class with Natalina is totally worth checking out!

River Run Centre

Reviewed By conniedonner

This was our first visit to the River Run Centre and we were very impressed. the venue is beautiful and the sound quality was excellent. Our only caution is to arrive early as parking seems very limited. We ended up having to park a 10+ minute walk away.

Guelph Public Library

Reviewed By BoardingPass820579 - Guelph, Canada

There are so many different things to do in a library. There are kids, mom and senior group activities throughout the week. March break always provides different activities at different branches. The main branch downtown often has crafts, movies etc for the kids. You have access to internet, movies, paper back book or books on tape, magazines and lets us not forget the parts of the world you can discover as well as all the topics you can research. There is something for everyone of all ages. Those who like to read can just have a blast. Those who do not like to read can listen to tapes. The possibilities are endless. As to the amount of time you spend there that would be up to you as there are comfortable chairs and tables to sit at if you wish to do your reading or studying while at the library. Great to do on a sunny day when you want to get out of the heat but do not forget those rainy cloudy or snowy days when you just want something to do. It is always a good time to go and spend sometime in the library.
