    Sadly the pasta making experience was most definitely not worth either the money or the time. Cooking lessons should be relatively intimate experiences so we can all learn properly. It was jam packed with one table of 24 and a total of 45 people which causes the entire experience to be a shambles. The amount of food and the guidance given was not worth the money. The staff were unequipped for the volume of people. The pasta machines went not working properly. The filling of the pasta was so little we all had to ask for more. By the time we ate it was past 9pm. We had to request every step of the way as when we arrived our table wasn’t even set up. And the poor waiters were run off their feet. Wine. Glasses. Ice. Utensils. Aprons. And more we had to request. And we ended up helping 2 other tables as we had the only working machine between our 3 tables. And the staff didn’t even get around to showing us how to make the pasta till wayyyy to late. Not a good experience at all. One lady said she would rather pay us to teach her they never got any lesson at all.

    Waiter was inattentive. Other waiters had to be called on.
