I'm not sure what I expected as the class listed 9 pasta dishes to be made... A part of me expected to see a scene from The Muppets where the Swedish Chef wrestles with a plate of pasta before getting attacked by it. There were a dozen of us, all seated comfortably around the large kitchen island. The cooking facility was spacious, clean, and well organized- the perfect space for a large group to move freely and cook amongst each other. We were offered complimentary water, tea, and coffee throughout the class. Chef Christie was amazing! Her upbeat energy was a pleasure to be around and her instructions were clear and concise. Her friendly persona made it easy to ask questions. We learned to make basic, egg, and wheat dough and shaped them into spaghetti, fettuccine, cavatelli, and ravioli. We then made some classic sauces to go with them: Bolognese, puttanesca, bacon tomato, and caramelized onion cheese. In addition to that, we made a cheese tortellini soup, sausage tomato lasagna, seafood cannelloni with basil cream sauce, butternut agnolotti with sage butter, and a spinach ravioli with charred tomato sauce. OH. MY. LORD. Brains overloaded with info and bellies satisfied, we all took a nap when we got home. :]

This is my second visit. Each time the food is outstanding. I'm sure it would cost $30-$50 at a…read morerestaurant. High quality ingredients. Extremely well cooked. Good portion size. Cost is $12 includes tax. Tip is extra. The chefs rotate as the servers. Service is a work in progress so as long as you're prepared for that you will have a great time. The food is soooo delicious. Typically there are two apps, four entrees, two sides, and two desserts. You select one of each. Iced tea or soda also is included. I had the smoked trout spinach salad. The red beets were the best and the vinegarette was tasty. Slightly sweet. The smoked trout was ok, more spices would've been nice. The bean soup looked good and the reviews were positive. The entrees included prosciutto wrapped monkfish, spinach and ricotta ravioli, wiener snitzel, and brat with sauerkraut. I got the brat and it was great with Grilled butter bread. The potato salad was amazing. Included bacon, slightly warm, and sauerkraut flavor. The Brussel sprouts were grilled and maybe the best item in the meal. I wanted more! For dessert I selected the red wine poached pear with marscapone cream. It was good. Slightly sweet. The other option was tiramisu which was served in a wine glass and looked great! They rotate the menu every three weeks. Next is Asian! I think reservations are required and they only serve wed and thur. Note it takes about 1.5 hours to get through lunch.

This quarter's theme is Cajun, so I had shrimp, grits and collard greens with bacon (see pic) & beignets with berry sauce (also see pic). It was DELICIOUS & was cooked super quickly.

I would definitely recommend, but since it's a class, make sure to call ahead for hours & days it's open.

However, the seating is kind of weird because you're all lined up where the location should have the tables in a square around the Chef so that you can see what the chef is doing and mimic with the chef is doing instead of getting up and sitting down getting up and sitting down. So almost like a large island style shape in a square around the Chef presentation table. Hope this makes sense but there is a lot of getting up and sitting down. For the cost, you really do not get a lot of food so I would highly recommend not planning on this being your dinner I was disappointed and did not mention that we would be sitting with someone else and so if you are a germ phobic , this is definitely not for you. We made pasta and everyone at our table contributed to making the pasta with their hands, and it really made me feel uncomfortable. They provide everything for the recipes they do not offer any drinks minus water. Everything else is BYOB. This is a great experience. I recommend it just a heads up on what to expect.

Three of us took the Delmar Loop food tour with our guide Tracey. First I would like to say Tracey…read morewas a wonderful guide with so much knowledge of the area. She told us the history of the loop, what's currently going on and what's up and coming. We could not have asked for a better guide. The food is important but having a good guide I think is equally important. Tracey went above and beyond. We loved her. Five stars for Tracey. Now on to the food. I will list what where we stopped and rate each individual place. SALT AND SMOKE- OMG THE BEST PLACE ON THE TOUR. They gave us brisket and Mac -n- cheese( which they just won an award for) I live on the East Coast and we are not known for good BBQ but being a foodie I do know good food and this place was slammin! The brisket was the best I've ever had and so was the Mac-n-cheese made with some ritz crackers on top. The manager was very friendly and welcoming. They showed us the smokers up close which was very cool. They have 4 different sauces to try all made in house and all delicious. Liked it so much we are going back for dinner. PI PIZZA- Being from the East Coast, New Haven, home of world famous Sally's and Pepe's Pizza I have high standards for pizza. This pizza was not what I'm used to but enjoyed trying it anyway. They served a small pizza for the 3 of us which is extremely generous on a food tour! SHAWARMA KING- kind of a dive place for college kids, kind of while in the wall place. Chicken schwarma was tasty and falafel was average. Owner wasn't talkative or friendly but that's ok. I would eat here if a broke college kid or drunk at 2am but not a place for a first date SEOUL TACO- Korean taco joint. We had a beef taco which was delicious and kimchi rice that was also good. I would go back to this place for sure. PICCIONE PASTRY- they gave each of us a gooey butter cake canoli. St. Louis is famous for gooey butter cake if u didn't know. The cannoli was filled to order and was very good. Very sweet but very good. The tour was about $55 a person and was well worth it. I've been on other food tours across the country and this one gave us the most food for our money. I've been to others where we left hungry but not here! If you take this tour at 11 am like we did I suggest you do not eat breakfast! I would definitely recommend this tour if you are visiting St Louis both for the food and to learn the history. Lastly, the picture attached to my review is for Tracey. We ran into this famous guy as we entered our hotel right after our tour. We wished Tracey was still with us when we met him. Tracey we hope you see this picture and if the company sees this review please show Tracey the pic! Thanks!
