Florence Pasta Making Class

I had hoped to book a class @ LoveX with Luca & Lorenzo but they do not have any availability for the dates that we will be in Florence. Looking for recommendations for something similar.

Note:
--we are staying within a few blocks of Santa Maria Novella Train Station so meeting the group there with transportation to the class was ideal
--less interested in going to the local market to shop, more interested in the actual cooking experience
--prefer the ambience of a beautiful home kitchen rather than a commercial kitchen

Thank you for sending the link. I have seen the Viator suggestions and other options from Google searches. I was hoping someone with personal experience would be able to share their insight.

hey hey mary
there is so many cooking classes around florence. we did one at the mercato which was good but i prefer in a house with outdoor atmosphere. here's a few options to check out if interested and what is offered. viator is a third party reseller and usually follow what's offered since many get kickbacks to "walk the line" if you get it.
