"We did a Mamma cooking class today with our lovely Mamma Ivana & her daughter Serena. Entertaining & informative, we loved the experience. Eating your own hand made Tortellini with bread & vegetarian options available, whilst drinking delicious local wine was truly superb.
A great experience with lovely hosts in an incredibly beautiful setting & village.
Thank you 😊 😘 Jane"

"I do not like when in restourants they bring you bread which you did not order and then charge it, pour tap water in the bottle and charge it. ... food was ok, for me below average. Ambient is ok, and music was pretty good."

"We spent the afternoon with Mama Ivana and Mirco learning how to make tortellini! Mama makes it look so easy. We had a wonderful time and lunch was spectacular! Highly recommend this class and their restaurant. A hidden gem worth every minute. Excellent value and friendly welcoming people. Thank you. This was a highlight of our trip!!"
