Class was cancelled just before leaving to go to the paella cooking class. They told my wife the chef was sick and offered to reschedule but half of our group of six is visiting from out-of-town. Could not be helped, but still disappointed.

A nice afternoon making pasta, good activity for a date or small group looking for something to do. Chef Dana was a good host who kept a nice energy level throughout. The food itself was pretty good, too, and it was nice that a lot of the stuff was prepped prior. All this said, it would have been nice to learn a bit more throughout the process so have more takeaways to apply in our own cooking. The other not so great thing was that 4 people had to share each dish as far as prepping/cooking it. We enjoyed working with the other couple, but it would've been nice to make our own dishes ourself instead of taking turns kneading dough for "4 turns" and then letting someone else jump in. Lastly, Chef Dana mentioned she would send the recipes, but we haven't received them yet, if someone could please share those. The ricotta filling for the tortellini was especially tasty.
