La Scuola at Eataly Flatiron

I thought it was very nice and detailed when it came to explaining the climates. The various climates has an effect on how the food is grown there. Hearing that different regions grew there own pasta was interesting. Even more so the process being the same for 1000 years if I heard correctly was also cool. I felt real good eating the food which showed it was fresh ingredients. Alot better than the ingredients you get from a local super market.

This class was awesome! The chef took his time in explaining the ingredients he put into each delicious three course meal. He laughed & joked with everyone in this cooking class. Everything was well organized. All of us present also received a little history on Italy. The staff was great also. The chef didn't rush anybody out the door after we finish eat that delicious meal. This class was well worth my money & time. Amazing!

Excellent clas!

The food and demonstration were amazing!

I feel as if we were duped. The description of the event didnt fit what was actually done. I was unable to eat any of the horderves due to the pork restriction in my diet. The lines for the foods and the wine were too long so I was only able to get 1 wine tasting and my boyfriend was able to grab 1 skewer of shrimp, which was no good in my opinion. My boyfriend spent so much money on this night for me to only be disappointed in the event. We had to leave due to the amount of people squeezed into the small circle and having wine spilled on me.

Very basic class. In my opinion and many others from the class we thought it was all dough and no where near enough filling. Wasn’t happy with food. As far as staff and teachers they were great!! Appetizers, free flowing wine and overall friendliness was 100%.

The food and cooking demonstration were, as always, superb. Then we got a very informative lesson about truffles while we were eating the truffles! I learned a lot and had a wonderful meal!

Great experience!

It was fascinating to learn about a region of Italy I wasn’t very familiar with, and the ambassadors were wonderful, warm, friendly and knowledgeable. I look forward to another class similar to this, I love learning about different regions of such a beautiful country. And the food, of course, was amazing as always.

Rocky Ruggiero gave us a wonderful lesson on how the saints are depicted in Italian artwork, it was fascinating and his sense of humor and energetic delivery really made the presentation out of this world. And of course, the food was amazing as always!
