Chef Alberto was very hospitable and welcoming to my friend and I. Before the class, he treated my friend and I to some basic Genovese breakfast - Focaccia made by him and coffee. (Honestly still can’t stop thinking about the Focaccia, need him to send me the recipe!) Throughout the lesson, he wasn’t just going through the lesson step by step but also telling us the history of how pesto came about, ingredients used and why they are used. Aft the class, we were able to enjoy a full course meal prepared by him starting off with some of the best genovese appetizers, followed by the pasta we made from scratch and finally surprise dessert. He also opened a bottle of white wine which went really well with our entire lunch.
