It was great pleasure and big experience. Masters Giovanni and Ricardo were great. Only one "negative" moment too much food to eat at the end, so good to start with the empty stomack :).

Three of us took the Arancino Making Class with Chef Paolo and Chef Ricardo. They offered excellent instructions and had us laughing the entire time. I feel like I can actually make arancino!
