Mrs. Bonicelli was so kind, helpful, and understanding for a beginner like myself. The class was super fun!! We got to learn how to make some great food from (mostly) scratch, and the Chef was guiding us the whole way. The setup was clean, put together, and very professional while maintaining a cozy, at-home feeling. We would absolutely book again and will be recommending this for our family and friends! Thank you Chef!!

The food was delicious and Laura was great, however there was less hands-on experience than what the website/class description led us to expect.

Chef Laura’s Neapolitan Pizza Adventure was a fantastic experience. We loved learning how to properly create and handle the dough, the importance of restraint with toppings, and watching the pizzas beautifully brown and bubble in the Ooni oven. The kitchen was perfectly set up for our small group of six, the food was delicious, and the warmth of Chef Laura and her husband’s home was truly the icing on the cake. My partner and I are already looking forward to taking more of her classes in the future.

The "Recreating an Italian Kitchen" class with Chef Bonicelli was everything we had hoped for - a lot of fun, we learned techniques and were given recipes which I'm sure we will use in the future, and the food was amazing and we made enough pasta to take some home and freeze! Her kitchen was perfect for the class, she is VERY organized and a wonderful teacher. I'd highly recommend this class.

We had an amazing experience cooking with Chef Bonillcelli and Mark. Our Italian cooking class, just the right size for hands on experience, was fun and the food amazing! We made our own fresh pasta, delicious tomato florentine, chicken Marsala and chocolate spritz cookies. All that and learned about olive oils and the right flours for making delicious pasta, cooking techniques using the coolest gadgets and where to find them. Chef Bonicelli is generous with sharing her recipes and her resources. We only scratched the surface of her knowledge and skills and are excited to join another cooking experience with her soon.

Our group of four had an amazing time with Chef Laura. We made asparagus and Gruyère wrapped in prosciutto, gnocchi with two sauces from scratch, and cream brûlée. Everything was delicious! Her space is perfect for a group to learn about Italian cooking.

Learned how to make potato gnocchi, and two simple sauces to create a really tasty, unique meal, along with a few other dishes. It was fun, informative, and intimate. Only five people in our class. And it was right in Chef Bonicelli's kitchen. Pretty fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Highly recommend.

She is engaging; food was yummy; I liked the small group (6 people). The set up, supplies and space were great. Making the pasta was really fun. Other than that, actual cooking was limited and suitable for newer cooks. But I was there with my 2 sons, who fit that description, so it was fine.

Chef Laura Bonicelli and her husband Mark were so welcoming and created a great fun atmosphere in their beautiful kitchen. Myself and three friends did the Delectable Italian Fare From Scratch Cooking class and it was so well done and prepared. The food that we made, including making our own pasta and sauces from Chefs recipes, were absolutely delicious. Chef Lauras knowledge and expertise at cooking was top notch. She guided us and answered all our questions. It really felt like we were a group of friends cooking at a friend’s home. I highly recommend this or any of Chef Laura’s classes. A+

What an incredible experience! I went to this class with my partner as a fun date night/Valentines gift. The menu was great, as well as the atmosphere. I enjoyed the gentle guidance along the way, making the experience encouraging towards your cooking abilities, rather than feeling like criticisms. The class was well-structured and it is very apparent that Chef Bonicelli has put thought into the setup, delivery, and of course the food throughout the evening while still adapting to the pace and differences in all folks attending. I also love the fact that there were at least a couple night’s worth of leftover prepared pasta to bring home! Overall, this was a wonderful way to spend an evening — learning more about cooking while making good food in a relaxed and inviting space.

Chef Bonicelli and her husband Mark were so inviting from the moment we walked in. Simultaneously, it felt like we were at a high quality culinary class and also a dinner with friends. It was a refreshing evening. Chef is knowledgeable yet approachable, and made everything super easy to understand. We would definitely take another class (probably the pizza one!!!). Thanks!

Chef Bonicelli was great! My fiancée and I have never been to a cooking class before, and this exceeded our expectations! She not only taught about technique, but explained the history and the why behind what she does. Could not recommend enough, 10/10!

I thoroughly enjoyed this class!!! Chef Bonicelli was so warm and welcoming in her home, that I felt relaxed while cooking. Cooking new things can intimidate me; so, being relaxed while making biscuits and pasta proves that Chef Bonicelli is an amazing teacher. After taking this class, I’m planning to invest in a pasta machine so I can make fresh pasta at home.

I found Chef Laura's pasta-making class a fantastic experience, she showed her deep knowledge of Italian cuisine and definitely has skills for teaching. She demonstrated many pasta-making techniques, and I thought we all learned the skills and felt competent. I loved Laura's stories of Italian culture, her family, and the food industry. Her tips and methods were invaluable, making it seem simple. The best part? The recipes and food were delicious. I left inspired and ready to share my new skills with friends and family.
