Fantastic experience!
Our group of 3 adults and 4 children had the absolute best time during our cooking class. Our instructors were a mother/daughter team who showed us around the property and welcomed us into their home with warmth and generosity. Our children (ranged 7-10 years old) we’re thoroughly engaged and participated the entire time. The food was exceptional, and we will return home with many cherished recipes and memories. Highly recommend!
