Delightful, good food and perfect chef - Rosalina was fabulous. What a wonderful way to spend a morning! Nothing like picking out a fresh fish and cooing it. We made pasta with semolina. Simple but delicious.

Cooking fun in Venice - Rosanna was a wonderful tour guide of the Rialto Market and a terrific instructor for the hands-on cooking class. The pasta and tiramisu were fun to make and delicious to eat. All of the participants worked well together and had a very enjoyable time!

The market through a locals eyes - Our tour guide/chef was wonderful . She gave us an insiders and locals look at the market. The walk to the kitchen was enjoyable and the food we cooked was delicious. I never made pasta before but her instruction was clear and helped us make a delicious lunch!

Cooking with Lorenzo - Lorenzo was an absolute joy and the group had a really lovely time learning how to make ravioli, artichoke hearts and fish and tiramisu. The tour of the market was great but also sad to see how this livlihood has diminished over the years. I did end up buying some regional favorites. We had a great time! Everyone should take a cooking class with Lorenzo!

Incredible Experience - This was an amazing experience! Our host and chef, Rosanna, met us by the Rialto Market on a busy Saturday morning. After touring the beautiful selections of seafood, meat and vegetables and completing our shopping, we had a very long 30 minute walk to the cooking studio. We had unlimited wine and water as we were preparing the meal and Rosanna was an excellent teacher. We prepared homemade red sauce with eggplant, baby artichokes, asparagus, homemade pasta, sea beam filets in parchment, tomato salad and individual tiramisu. The class and meal was much longer than advertised so allow at least five hours total. There were six of us in the highly interactive class and it was so much fun. The meal and company were amazing. I highly recommend this tour. It was so worth the money and our time. Just be prepared for lots of walking.

I must do when you were in Venice… - Making the pasta! It was one of the best we’ve ever had! We had a lot of fun making pasta from scratch, which we have never done before she never done! Eating it was even better!

Lunch with a Delightful Host! - Lorenzo was very nice - our group prepared a wonderful lunch in his well designed kitchen. The tour was advertised for 3 hours but was 5. Hours. We walked 40 mins to meet at the starting point - which was the Rialto market. Monday fish and local farmers market are closed. I would suggest eliminating this from tour. The group walked another 30 to get to location of class and plenty of fresh vegetables and butcher shop near lunch location - not necessary to meet at Rialto market and made for longer day. Lorenzo is very accommodating - lunch was delicious and hopefully I learned a few new things! Thank you for a very nice day!
