I have always wanted to learn how to make pasta though a bit nervous about trying. But Kristine created a warm, inviting and friendly atmosphere, and her knack for teaching made it easy to try new things. In 2 hours, I learned to make 6 different kinds of pasta! I plan to gift Bistro Springhouse workshops to my family because I know they will have an enjoyable time!

This was the perfect workshop for myself and my fourteen year old son who enjoys cooking and loves pasta. It was fun to learn how to make the different shapes by hand. He has already duplicated the process at home.

Our 30 person team LOVED the Bistro Springhouse virtual pasta making workshop! We wanted a fun and engaging time away from the office environment and this delivered. Some of us even went on to make more pasta with family and kids the next day! Kristine did a wonderful job checking on each of us, encouraging participation, and teaching us new skills. Highly recommend!
Matt
My 9 year old son and I enjoyed having something different to do on a Saturday afternoon, especially since he is interested in cooking and trying things in the kitchen. The session was well thought out and the pacing worked for a variety of participants—kids included! We were surprised at our own ability to make so many different shapes of pasta, and when we cooked it up it tasted better than the stuff in a box. Thank you!!

When my wife told me that she had signed us up for a pasta making workshop I was less than thrilled. Turns out, I loved it. Making Pasta is simple, fun and when you’re finished you get to take your pasta home and eat it.eat. Kristine was great, She taught us how to make different shapes and sizes and have fun while we were doing it. I would definitely recommend it!
Jim
My sons and I did the pasta making workshop together and we all had a great time! They are 6, and 16 - so it can be hard to find things that they both like to do, but the class kept us all engaged and was a great way for us to work together on something. It was really cool seeing the whole process from beginning to end, and dinner that evening was so delicious! Thank you for a great afternoon.

What began as a personal love of handmade pasta, farmers market finds, and simple meals shared with family has grown into a community-centered workshop business rooted in curiosity, connection, and fresh ingredients.
