Mama mia! Participants in this one-time three-hour class will learn how to make eight authentic Italian dishes and then fellowship together as they eat the delicious results!
The evening’s menu, which begins with antipasto and ends with tiramisu, is taught by two Italians and two “wannabees” who love Italian food and love sharing it with others.
Italian Anthony Marchese, born in Brooklyn, New York, is a successful entrepreneur, former seafood provider for 200 restaurants in New York, and former owner of well- known Italian restaurants in New York City and Naples, Florida. Anthony says he is honored to be a part of getting people together over good Italian cooking.
Nancylee Caggainello McCord, whose grandparents were born in Sicily, Naples, and Venus, Italy and came to America through Ellis Island, remembers wonderful family times cooking Italian food beside her sweet mother in their Italian neighborhood in Stamford,
CT. She says, “Being Italian makes one always have a love affair with food.”
Sissy Figelstahler, an avid cook who has taken cooking classes in Italy as well as other places around the world, says Italian cooking is her favorite and “is thrilled to pass along her love for creating food delights from the kitchen!” Sissy is also a former food writer and photographer for a California-based Culinary magazine.
Pat Fuller, retired creator/owner of the popular Orange Blossom Boutique, is now enjoying “anything outdoors” and “creating a setting with people around the table.”
Her love for good food began with traveling, and, after “wanting to lick the plate from pasta” in a San Francisco restaurant, she set out to duplicate the dish.” After multiple tries, it was a success.
