We have a wonderful time learning how to make pasta with Debi and Mike! They made everything so easy and I felt as if I had known them my whole life! I am looking forward to booking another class with them.

Went to this class on the evening of our wedding! Could not have planned a more fun and special evening with great food. So appreciative for the class, the delicious food and for such a fun couple who hosted it! Loved the pictures that we got from the class too, what a special bonus!

A MUST if you’re ever near Chattanooga! The hosts, Debi and Mike, welcomed my fiancé and I into their beautiful home, made us feel right at home, showed us how to make pasta easily, took lots of pictures for us and made it so much fun! We learned, ate, had some left overs too, and met some fantastic people. 🙂 10000000/10 highly recommend

We had so much fun with this class!! Debi and Mike are such wonderful hosts and teachers. Truly a hands on experience where we left feeling like we could make pasta at home. A date night we’ll be talking about for years to come!!

Debi and Mike were so nice and welcoming! My husband and I had so much fun. I have always wanted to learn how to make authentic Italian pasta and sauces and now I have! They also included the recipes for everything we made with additional recipes. I can’t wait to make it when we get back home. If we are ever in Chattanooga again, we will definitely be back, even if it’s for the same exact food! It was absolutely amazing! 100% recommend!

Debi and Mike were so welcoming and very friendly. They made us feel right at home. This was a truly an awesome experience and I highly recommend it. The end result was some top notch Italian food that left us stuffed, satisfied and the knowledge to be able to make more of it.

The experience was amazing I would go back again I love the hands on teaching and Debbie and Mike were very nice we laughed so much I world recommend this for date night or night out with friends. If I could give 10 stars I would.

My boyfriend and I were wanting to do some cooking classes for date nights. We thought pasta would be fun, Pastanooga was the best one we found searching online. We were not disappointed at all. The whole experience was amazing! My favorite part was making the raviolis!!!! They even take photos for you! Debi and Mike have created a wonderful pasta making class! I enjoyed meeting them and the other couple that cooked with us! We will be using the techniques more for sure. They send links on supplies they used in the class!!! You get the recipes and a pound of pasta to take home after you dine on what you made!!!! I'm thinking of taking the class again sometime as a refresher! A truly wonderful experience!

There aren't enough stars to give for how AMAZING this experience was with Mike and Debi. From the start of the experience they make you feel at home and apart of their family. They are super engaging , informative and fun throughout the entire class. They teach all the little tricks for making that bigger classes miss and bring a level of authenticity that is 2nd to none. In addition, they give you all the recipes and run multiple class types. They are patient and give you exposure to do all parts of the pasta making process rather than just one section. I highly recommend this for anyone coming to the Chattanooga area whether its couples, folks looking to up their cooking acumen, or locals looking to change up their normal routine. I will definitely be recommending this for my family and look forward to coming back in the future!

Fun date night with my sweetie. We made Ravioli - and enjoyed the mealtime after it was done. Highly recommend this as a fun time for a couple.

This was a great date night with my sweetheart. We enjoyed spending the evening cooking and talking.

Excellent time, great food, great time. Strongly recommend this - fun date night.

Thoroughly enjoyed the class. Debi and Mike created a comfortable atmosphere for any level of cooking experience. Would highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time I would highly recommend this if you are in the area! Our host were a blast and we had a lot of fun

Wonderful experience, great hands on instruction that helped in crafting a delicious meal. 5 stars and would definitely recommend to couples looking to have a fun and relaxing date night.

Debbie & Mike have the gift of hospitality! My mom & I thoroughly enjoyed our cooking class! It was fun and tasted delicious!

The cooking our own homemade pasta class with Debi and Mike was the BEST and MOST UNIQUE activity / meal of our trip! My husband and I, and our pre-teen / teenage kids had a blast - and loved the food we made! Debi and Mike taught us how to do all the things! And even though it was a complex process, they made every step accessible and fun for ALL of us - no matter the age. ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND!! 10 out of 10!!

Their kitchen was lovely and we had a great time making pasta with Debbie and Mike. The pasta and the sauce we made were delicious, and they were very knowledgeable and engaging.

Me and my homegirl had an amazing, fun time with both instructors and learn so much from them. I already started buying my pasta maker to make more noodles at my home thanks to these awesome teachers! I recommend many to go to their class!

We had such a great time with Debi and Mike!! They were so kind, informative, and easy to chat with. We learned a lot, made some delicious food, and had a great time. I would recommend PastaNooga to anyone!! Mike also took professional pictures for us while we cooked which was amazing!

I can’t recommend PastaNooga enough! My husband and I took the ravioli class and had the most amazing time. Debi and Mike are very warm, welcoming and knowledgeable about pasta. I love how Debi connected her recipes to stories of her time in Italy. It felt like you were learning to cook in your family’s kitchen. Don’t skip, this tiramisu that you can add onto your experience!

They say that food has a way of connecting others, and PastaNooga does just that!It was such an incredible evening! Debi and Mike not only lead a wonderful class, but such a lovely and warm experience!We loved every moment! Thank you so much, Debi and Mike, for having us!!

Wish I could give more than 5 stars!! Loved every minute of this! Debi and Mike made us feel right at home from the moment we walked through the door. Their teaching style was unhurried and relaxed with lots of helpful tips peppered amongst stories of Debi’s time in Italy. Not only did we get to make fresh pasta from start to finish but we also made a delicious sauce to accompany it. We ended the class at their dinner table, enjoying the meal we made together over laughs and stories. The entire experience was intimate, incredibly educational and most importantly, delicious. They’re such a great team and their love of cooking was inspiring and engaging. And as a bonus, their two sweet doggies walked us to our car and gave us lots of love. Look forward to taking every class they offer, highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time!!

This experience warmed my heart and soul! Debi & Mike were amazing, knowledgeable,& patient hosts and created a cozy vibe to bring our group together beautifully. We enjoyed the evening and most definitely have plans to come back for another experience.

We had the best time creating a delicious meal and our very own pasta. Debi and Mike were wonderful hosts and would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a fun and unique experience.

My friends and I took the pasta making class this summer. We had so much fun that we went back for the Gnocchi making class. Debi and Mike are so knowledgeable and the instruction is very relaxed. We felt like we were at a family gathering, all cooking together. They make it so easy, you can’t fail. Take the class, you won’t be sorry!

This was a gift for my parents. They had an amazing time. They loved every part from start to finish. They raved about how incredibly friendly and knowledgeable the teachers were. They said they will highly recommend their class to everyone they know.

What a wonderful couple and an incredible experience! Had fun learning to make and making pasta and pasta sauce. They brought everything needed, taught us, served us and cleaned up afterward all in the comfort of our own home! We highly recommend the experience to anyone even remotely interested in cooking or making your own pasta and sauces!

Fun and overall great experience would definitely recommend!

We had a great experience with our pasta class! Mike and Debi were excellent hosts and teachers, making the class educational, fun, and comfortable. We learned so much and throughly enjoyed our handmade ravioli meal at the end. We also highly recommend getting tiramisu as well, it was amazing!

We had the best time!!! Such a great hands-on experience that we cannot wait to replicate. We had such a fun time hanging and learning with our great hosts. A great experience!! Would recommend to anyone. Can not say enough about have great it was

Our family took PastaNooga's Gnocchi class during the Thanksgiving holiday. We had a wonderful time. Debi is a talented and patient instructor. Mike made delicious mocktails -- while taking photos. We left with loads of gnocchi and a fun album of souvenir photos.

Debi and Mike were wonderful. We had the best time learning something new. Thank you!!

We had an absolutely wonderful time! The hosts are absolutely gracious, the atmosphere and views are beautiful. This experience was great and even if you don't decide to make your own pasta I'm the future, this is an absolute must for genuinely delicious homemade pasta! I've been all over and this is the best pasta (and tiramisu) I've ever had. Thank you so much!

AMAZING! Debi and Mike are excellent teachers. It was raining when we arrived and they ran out with umbrellas to usher us into their home. This beautiful couple blessed us with a warm welcome, easy to follow instructions, a delicious meal, lots of laughs and fond memories of an evening we won’t soon forget. Don't even think twice…BOOK THIS CLASS!

How can I put into words how much I recommend doing this? It was fantastic! The pasta making experience was great fun and we learned so much in such a short time. Our hosts made it all very enjoyable and we didn’t feel any pressure to be perfect in our creations. We laughed, we learned, we enjoyed fabulous pasta made so much better knowing that we made it ourselves from start to finish. I’m sure there are other classes out there but this one felt like we were learning from a member of the family instead of a class. I will definitely do this again! Thanks again to our hosts for a wonderful experience!

My husband and I recently completed a class at Pastanooga and had such a wonderful experience!! Debbie and Mike were so welcoming and did a great job explaining the process! We highly recommend for anyone wanting to learn to make pasta, or just looking for a fun date night!

My wife and I had a great time at the pasta-making class! Debi and Mike are great - very welcoming and clearly knowledgeable about pasta. We learned a lot, ate great food (and even took some home), and enjoyed getting to know everyone. I’d recommend it to anyone, whether or not you typically cook!

Had the BEST experience with PastaNooga! If you are looking for a "hand's on" pasta making experience - then this is it! Debi explained the why's and the why nots of pasta making and made it super fun! I'm not gonna lie - it's a lot of work, but the end result is amazing. I walked away with a lot of knowledge and the confidence that I can do this on my own at home! I am definitely going to be going back for another class. 5 STARS for sure!!!!! Thanks PastaNooga!

SO. MUCH. FUN. Debi and Mike are awesome instructors and have designed a class that gets everyone’s hands on each actual step to truly learn the technique of each part of the process, unlike other cooking classes that just assign different people tasks and they put it together at the end. This is very hands on and full of so many tips and tricks to get it right by two people who’s love for the craft CLEARLY shows. The recipe’s are delicious and their hospitality is warm, fun, relaxed and on full display at the finale where everyone gets to eat! 🙂 Cannot recommend enough, 10/10!

My wife and I had a wonderful experience at our pasta making class. Debi and Mike were amazing hosts and we really appreciated Debi’s knowledge and her sharing her recipes with us. We are excited to start making pasta at home. We are looking forward our next class. We highly recommend taking a class at PastaNooga.

Great family activity and awesome food!

This was an Amazing experience. Beautiful home, great atmosphere and they were very kind! We were able to make amazing tasting pasta from scratch! Highly recommend!

Debi and Mike are awesome! Had so much fun learning to make pasta, the food was delicious, the conversations great. A must do again experience.

I took a class with a group of friends and it was a wonderful experience! Cooking in the instructor’s home made it such an intimate class. We had so much fun learning and then to sit down for a dinner of fresh pasta, sauce, fresh bread, and tiramisu tied it all together. We hope to go back for a different class soon. Highly recommended!!!

The whole time was fantastic. Great couple. Enjoy d the whole thing

It was a bit of a journey to get there, but so worth the trip. The chefs were beyond amazing! My husband and I had never made pasta before, and by the time we were done, we felt like pros! If you are in the slightest interested in a new, fun experience..... this is it!

We loved our experience! And the end result of tasting our food was excellent! If we lived here we’d come back for more!

Everything about our Pasta Making experience with Debi and Mike was amazing! Debi is an amazing instructor. She does a fabulous job of explaining and describing the hows and whys of everything we did. Mike documented the evening for us with amazing pictures so we can relieve the night over and over. We shared many stories about our lives while creating an amazing ravioli meal. They even shared recipes with us. As soon as we got home, I ordered the necessary equipment for us to try to make at home. It is an experience I highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and fun evening. I wish we lived in Chattanooga area so we could experience another class with them.

We had a wonderful experience at PastaNooga! We felt comfortable with the pace and really feel like we learned a lot! We enjoyed the atmosphere and the conversation. They were so kind to take pictures and send us an album digitally. And the best part was the amazing lunch! This is a must do experience, but one tip it’s about 30 minutes from Chattanooga so plan for drive time! 5 Star experience!

Such a fun time! Debi was great at explaining the process and we made a delicious meal and had good conversation. Highly recommend!

One of the best instructional dinners we have had. Debi and Mikes level of expertise was invaluable to a successful pasta dinner. We so enjoyed our night. The pasta was excellent.

Thank you so much for a wonderful warm evening of learning to make pasta and sharing

Fantastic evening that felt very special! If you’re looking for a unique cooking class and learning experience, this is it. Thank you Debi and Mike!

Debi & Mike were fun to cook with

My husband and I had a great experience at PastaNooga! Debi and Mike did an excellent job at teaching us how to make ravioli and fettuccini. It was a very hands-on experience with a lot of good conversation and great food. They made us feel very welcome and we felt like we were spending the evening with friends. I can't recommend this company enough! Also, make sure you order Debi's delicious homemade Tiramisu. I'm normally not a fan of this dessert, but hers was DELICIOUS!

This is such a GREAT experience! Whether you're local or wanting something fun to do on a visit to Chattanooga, I would highly recommend! The class is small, so you essentially get a private lesson. The cost of the class for the amount of food and fun you have is unmatched. I cannot recommend this enough!

If you are looking for a great experience grab a friend or 3 and enjoy the day learning how to make gnocchi and learning some history on true Italian cooking. Debi is a great teacher of her craft and teaches with the love she has for her food. Debi and Mike or so easy going and make you feel right at home. This was our second class because we enjoyed or ravioli & fettuccine class so much we booked this one. The tiramisu is a must freshly made and big enough for 2.

It was so much fun and we learned so much. Debi and Mike were so kind and made the process easy and fun! The food was delicious and they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and leaving us with recipes to try on our own and pasta to bring home as well! We would definitely go again if in the area. Highly recommend!

such a cool experience and very nice people!

My bride and I had a great date night learning to make pasta! Debi & Mike were excellent teachers, and it reminded me of my great-grandmother (from Italy) making ravioli many years ago. After cooking, we enjoyed an awesome Italian meal! Thank you, Debi & Mike!

We had a fantastic time learning to make pasta. They are great at explaining each step and are fabulous teachers. They made it fun and easy . The meal afterwards was delicious and we took some home. I feel like with the right tools I could replicate the recipes at home. I would definitely come back again and learn more ! Exceptional hosts and great company!

Such a wonderful experience! I could not have asked for a more special date night and learning opportunity! Mike and Debi are such a treat.

Such a fun evening of learning!

"What a wonderful experience! My son Levi and I, along with friends Ryan and Jackson, recently had the pleasure of taking a pasta-making class with Debi and Mike. From start to finish, the class was engaging, informative, and just plain fun. Debi and Mike were fantastic instructors, patiently guiding us through the process and sharing their passion for pasta making. We learned so much, from kneading the dough to rolling out and cutting the pasta. The best part? We enjoyed our creations so much that we've decided to make pasta making a regular part of our dinner routine. I can't recommend Debi and Mike's classes highly enough – a perfect activity for families and friends!"

So informative, and so much fun. Every step in the process of putting together a lovely Italian dinner was fully explained while we received hands-on experience. And then we got to eat it! Mike and Debi are gracious hosts, and Debi is a kind and patient teacher. We plan to come back for another lesson.

This is one of the coolest experiences I've ever been a part of! The intimate setting and one-on-one time with Deborah make this class worth it! Listening to her stories of living in Italy and the history behind some of the country's well-known dishes is eye-opening. PastaNooga's time and effort in giving you the best experience is well worth it. 10/10 would recommend!

Debi and Mike were gracious and knowledgeable hosts. It was so much fun to learn how to make the pasta and sauce and to hear stories about Italy. Highly recommend!!

Such a great experience! Fully hands on with great instructors! Pasta was amazing, had a meal there AND got to take fresh pasta home as well. The tiramisu was some of the best I have EVER had!! Would go back again!

Had the best time today learning how to make fresh pasta! Debbie and Mike are amazing and such good instructors. Debbie’s tiramisu is also some of the best I have EVER had!

10/10 experience. Super fun and delicious pasta.

We had a wonderful time learning to make pasta! 10/10 experience

We had a great time! Debi and Mike were gracious hosts. There were lots of thoughtful touches throughout the experience and it was well executed. This was well worth the cost and was a unique birthday present for my husband!

Had a fabulous time learning to make pasta and sauce today at Pastanooga! They did such a great job that we feel confident enough to try it again on our own with a few kitchen additions via their shared Amazon links (no, they don't get a commission *lol*) They immediately put you at ease and the time flew by! Can't recommend them enough!

My girlfriend and I had the absolute best time with our PastaNooga hosts (Debi and Michael) as we learned how to make pasta from scratch!! They welcomed us into their lovely home and we couldn’t be more impressed with the results of our cooking. We are definitely rookies in the kitchen, but we left with a TON of knowledge. Highly recommend!

Learning to make homemade pasta with Debi and Mike was a super fun and memorable experience. Admittedly, I was nervous going to a strangers house in a town I’m not from through an experience on the internet, but Debi and Mike made myself and my partner feel right at home! Debi gave great instruction for making pasta from scratch. I love cooking and my partner does not cook as much, but we both enjoyed this experience equally and neither of us could stop talking about it on our drive home. I would highly recommend this experience, no matter your cooking skill, to anyone staying in the Chattanooga area (also, if you book a spot, definitely get the tiramisu, it’s amazing😋).

Pastanooga is an awesome experience! Very hands on learning experience with the most wonderful hosts. Small class sizes for an even better atmosphere. I highly recommend!

My wife and I loved the experience. We met a super nice couple that were also taking the class and it was a great time. Lots of laughs and really great food. I would not hesitate to encourage anyone and everyone to give this a try. Thanks Debi and Mike !!!

What a fun night! The girls in the family all made gnocchi with Michael & Debbie. Excellent event. We will do this again

We had such an amazing time!!! I can not believe I made an entire meal with my own two hands!!! I would highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to learn a new skill, eat an amazing meal, have a wonderful experience, or any combination!!!

PastaNooga is the best! Debi and Mike are wonderful hosts and excellent teachers. This is.a very hands on class. The ravioli was the best! And they teach you how to do reproduce in your own kitchens. I highly recommend this class as a great evening for friends or couples or even if you go as a single. It is a great value for the price. I look forward to going again when new classes are available. This class is easily a 10 STAR

Warm, friendly, inviting. I learned so much during the class and will definitely be back.

Best pasta class and great humans as well. Highly recommend!

Our family had a lot of fun making ravioli's with Debi and Mike. Well worth the money and time. We learned a lot about pasta Eating the fruits of our labor was so enjoyable. Thank you again for a wonderful evening

What a wonderful discovery. The evening was a perfect celebration for my husband’s birthday. We laughed together and learned so much! It was an easy, not-at-all intimidating session which was just wonderful.
Debi and Mike were so incredibly kind, welcoming and knowledgeable. I would recommend this for couples or small groups of friends.
Just wonderful all the way around!

Debi and Mike are the best hosts. We had so much fun learning to make noodles and ravioli. It is a lot more work than it seems but they made it entertaining and time flew by. We enjoyed sharing the meal with them at the end. I highly recommend PastaNooga if you are interested in learning how to make pasta or just want to try something different. Class sizes are small and they are very hands on and patient.

We had a wonderful evening making authentic pasta with Debi and Mike. The atmosphere was very nice and the instruction was presented in a very easy to understand manner. We were able to have a great meal after we finished. Highly recommend!

My wife and I had an amazing time with Debi and Mike! Excellent instruction, fun storytelling, and, ultimately, a delicious meal and some new skills to hone. We enjoyed every second of the experience, and found Debi and Mike to be lovely folks. We'll be back for another class soon enough! Thanks, guys.

My wife and I had a great time with this intimate pasta making class. We learned how to make pasta from scratch as well as some sauce to have it at the end of the class fresh and tasty. Highly recommend if you’re interested in learning a quality life skill!!

If you ever wanted to learn to make fresh pasta I highly recommend that you book a visit. Me and my wife had a great time and was a great way for us to celebrate our anniversary. Could not have asked for a better experience.

Me and my husband had an amazing time with Mike and Debi! Debi is an awesome teacher and she made something that seems daunting (like making pasta by hand) super achievable. She knows when to help and when to let you learn on your own. Mike was an awesome host as well. They offer to take photos of your experience so you have memories to look back on. We had an amazing time and would definitely recommend their class!

Debi and Mike were awesome! Debi was an amazing teacher and they were both incredibly kind hosts. Me and my husband had an awesome time making handmade ravioli and fettuccine. We would definitely recommend this class to others, from newbies to professionals. It’s a blast and the food is delicious.

Holy cow this was an amazing experience! Deb and Mike make you feel like family and are so patient with teaching the basics of pasta. And the meal after….mouthwateringly delicious. We cannot wait to take all this knowledge home and try to make our own pasta! Don’t worry Mike and Deb, we’ll send you our recipe 😉

Learning to make pasta was so much fun! Debi is incredibly knowledgeable and she's a great teacher! Both her and Mike are very easy to talk to and make you feel right at home.

Had a wonderful time. Mike and Deb are great! Gave wonderful tips for making fresh pasta

My husband David and I learned to make pasta last night at PastaNooga with Debi and Mike. We learned so much and could not have had a better experience. We highly recommend!

I scheduled a class as a part of my 60th birthday celebration. We all had the best time making the pasta and at the end of it we had the most delicious meal. YUMMY! Working with Debi and Mike was so enjoyable. I highly recommend the class, book it today!

The highlight of my 60th birthday week was a pasta class with my daughter, her friends and my BFF. It was so fun! Debi and Mike are wonderful to work with and the meal at the end was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this as a great activity with family and friends. 5 stars for sure!

My daughter and I had an amazing time! We made 2 types of pasta in the relaxing atmosphere and the company was great! Thank you for the experience - we'll be using the ravioli forms, for sure! I've already used the fettuccine - "spaghetti" - in my crimini pasta. Love it!

It was an incredible experience! Mike and Debi were very nice and welcoming, we had a joyful time with them. The pasta tasted delicious☺️.
Thanks Debi and Mike for sharing your time, experience and story with us and we definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a quality time with someone special.

This was such a fun experience! It’s so unique and Debi and Mike were such wonderful hosts! We had so many laughs and got to have some delicious food (that we made!!) We learned some amazing skills and can’t wait to use them! They were so warm and welcoming! A truly fun experience that we would love to do again! Thank you so much Debi and Mike!

Debi and Mike were fantastic hosts and instructors! What an enjoyable (and tasty) way to spend part of my birthday with my hubby!

It truly was an evening to remember! I recommend this event for a special person in your life or just for yourself. Great for Brides, Couples, Birthdays, Anniversaries, or just wanting to learn about making pasta. It's about the same price as any evening out and you get so much more! Mike and Debi are so enjoyable and they make you feel right at home. Do it...you will be so glad you did!

What a wonderful way to spend a day! Debi and Mike are the perfect hosts and instructors. You will come away with great pasta and much knowledge! Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time! Very informative and great hands on experience! We loved it so much that when we left we bought all the equipment to make pasta at home! Thank you so much for opening up your home to us and teaching how to make delicious homemade pasta!

Making pasta was the highlight of our trip to Chattanooga. It was fun, entertaining and the ravioli was absolutely the best! We even enjoyed driving on the W road to get there🤪. Most of all both Debi and Mike were the best hosts and chefs. Thank you for a wonderful experience and sharing your home with us.

This class was a 10/10 for my husband and I! The couple that runs it are lovely people who think of everything to make your class enjoyable. The pasta making instruction was great and easy to follow, the end result was delicious, and the conversation we shared was also a lot of fun! They even made us cappuccinos to sip on while cooking. Their home was clean and inviting. And we had SO much food leftover to take home. The photos they took for us were also a nice touch.

We had an incredible experience here! My family came for a birthday party and it was just our small party of three, which made the experience feel more custom and personal. I've taken a lot of cooking classes (including others in the Chattanooga area), and this is by far one of my favorite. The pasta and tiramisu we ate at the end was AMAZING tasting, and I left with the confidence that I can now go home and make homemade pasta noodles myself! Debi was SO thorough with her knowledge and instruction, and also full of great stories from growing up in Italy. It was well worth the beautiful drive out of the city, and when a storm blocked the road, Debi freely rescheduled with us at a time she's not normally open. She was so kind, insightful, funny, and easy to work with. We left with our fresh pasta to go, bellies full, candid photos from the entire afternoon, and what felt like new friends. Cannot recommend enough!!

So much fun! Debi is so knowledgeable, hands on and loves to share good Italian recipes. Would recommend 100%! Debi and Mike are so warm and inviting, love them!

What an AMAZING experience! Debi and Mike make you feel like family and are great teachers! You learn so much in a short period of time and the pasta / sauce is fantastic! Not to mention the Tiramisu….it is awesome! If you want a fun event to share with your loved ones, you must sign up for a Pasta Nooga class. You won’t be disappointed!!

I took the pasta class with my daughter today. We had the best time and learned how to make some delicious pasta! I highly recommend this class for a fun learning experience. We are already making plans to experiment with different ravioli fillings. Thanks, Mike and Debi, for showing us how easy homemade pasta can be!

Debi and Mike are wonderful. They were very inviting. My husband and I had a great time. We have already ordered a pasta press! Thank you both so much. The Skiles

I had the pleasure of enjoying this class over the weekend with a friend! Firstly, Mike & Debi are great hosts! They were welcoming and kind, but most importantly, they made me feel comfortable, even after making a few mistakes. It was a little work involved with getting that dough where it needed to be, but Debi explains the process very well and it genuinely seemed like something I could honestly recreate at home, PLUS, the finished product was absolutely DELICIOUS! I couldn't believe that I made that! Awesome experience, would definitely be a cool date night or with another pasta loving friend! 🙂

Debi and Mike were wonderful hosts and excellent teachers! We did not feel rushed at all and Debi answered all our questions. Our dish was delicious!

The experience with Pastanooga was so great. My objectives were to learn to make home made pasta and Italian sauces and at the same time have a great time with my husband, sister and brother in law during our visit in Tennessee. We will always look back at this experience with a great smile and satisfaction on our face. I recommend it for those that want to have fun, learn something and share with a loved one. The instructors Debbie and Mike were great hosts and teachers, thank you!!

Great experience in a great environment. Loved the food and loved the people (Debbie and Mike). One of the highlights of our vacation activities. Thanks so much Pastanooga.

Such a fun thing to do! My husband & I joined our son and daughter-in-law for the class and we all had a great time! Debi and Mike are such good teachers and they tailor the class to all skill levels. The class was organized and their kitchen was spotless, not to mention the awesome view🤩Best thing was we got to eat the fruits of our labors and take some home for later 😋 Grazie mille, Pastanooga!

My wife and I had a wonderful time learning how to make homemade pasta with Debi and Mike. They are wonderful hosts and great teachers. Highly recommend PastaNooga.

We just finished our class with Debi and Mike. They were fantastic hosts! They demonstrate each step before you try your own hand at it, this helps ensure you don't look like an idiot while trying to interpret instructions 😆. Mike was so kind to offer us an espresso when we arrived! Debi is a great teacher, you can tell she had a real passion for cooking Italian. This is THE date experience for couples that enjoy working together. We will be back, probably with friends in tow for another amazing double date and learning experience! The arrabbiata sauce is simple and excellent! Thanks so much Mike and Debi!

Mike and Debi were superved host. we had the most amazing experience making pasta at their house. they were so helpful in giving tips and guidance in teaching us how to make ravioli and fettuccine noodles. the meal at the end of the class was superb. I would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to learn how to make pasta

It was so fun and a wonderful learning experience! My husband and I have made pasta before, but we always had trouble with it. Debi and Mike were such good teachers and we took away several tips to help us at home. In fact, the next night we made our own fresh fettuccine and it was delicious! Highly recommend this experience no matter what your skill level is in the kitchen…Debi and Mike tailor the class to fit anyone’s skills.

Great experience! So friendly. Easy to talk to. Highly recommend. Ask for the tiramisu!!

Debi was a wonderful teacher and with Mike as her sous chef this was an amazing experience! Their location is a little out of the way but the drive is beautiful and it was super easy to find with GPS. Debi and Mike made us feel like we were part of their family and the conversation flowed easily. I cannot recommend this experience enough!

We had the best night. Well worth it!!

My daughter and I had such an awesome experience! Debi is a fantastic teacher and demonstrated the skills we needed in a way we could successfully complete our pasta dish. Everything was organized, clean, and most of all, delicious! The portions were generous and Mike even took pictures as we cooked in their beautiful kitchen. We would definitely recommend!

We can not say enough positive things about this experience. After 30 years of marriage, this has been one of our favorite experiences that we have shared. The intimacy and personalization was beyond our expectation and would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for something outside of their normal date nights!!

This was an amazing experience!!! The whole process was so fun and Debi and Mike made us feel so relaxed!!! And then we had a delicious dinner!

Wonderful experience with family.

If you are on the fence, I hope this influences you into signing up! We absolutely LOVED this experience. I wasn’t sure what to expect since it was my first time booking an experience on this app but it far exceeded anything I could imagine. Debi and Mike are very personable, hospitable, and overall great people. There was never a dull moment and they took such great care of ensuring that we were comfortable asking questions and even took pictures for us. 10/10 recommend!

We absolutely LOVED THIS CLASS!!!! Me and my wife had so much fun!!! The next time we come to Chattanooga, we will definitely take another class. We highly recommend this. We ended up opening a bottle of wine and enjoyed the stories and how to make pasta and how easy it was to make a sauce. At the end of the class we all sat down and enjoyed what we made. This is definitely a good date night idea.

TRULY A AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!
Today was such a wonderful surprise birthday cooking experience for my boyfriend (and myself too) From the moment we arrived, Debi & Mike had a birthday sign in the front yard, along with a chalkboard message for us welcoming us to their beautiful home!
They had absolutely everything we needed to make lots of pasta and a yummy sauce! Debi & Mike were like a fine tuned machine working together during the class! Man we were impressed! While Debi worked with us on making everything, telling us such funny stories as we cooked, Mike would chime in on those stories as he snapped pictures, got the boiling water ready for us and turning on the oven in their beautiful kitchen! Once we’d prepared the pasta and sauce, these two amazing people served us what we’d cooked! I mean 5 star, top tier on my hospitable list! I would recommend anyone to book this class! You will not be disappointed!
Thanks Debi & Mike, we’ll be back! ☺️

pasta came put amazing, and they were both so nice. highly recommend

This is such a wonderful experience that I cannot recommend enough! Debi and Mike are amazing hosts and inviting into their home to teach you how to make delicious pasta from scratch. We had people who have made pasta before and those who haven’t and everyone equally enjoyed it.

Wow. What an incredible experience! My husband and I went hoping to learn how to make pasta, and it well exceeded our expectations. Mike and Debi were amazing hosts. They were so fun to talk. Their home is beautiful. What an amazing view. And the authentic pasta making experience and Debi’s teaching were perfection. We are so excited to recommend this experience to friends and family!

This is a must do experience. It was so fun and the ravioli was AMAZING. They are so sweet and easy to talk to. Will absolutely love to do this again with another sauce haha

This was a very family-friendly activity. My teen boys enjoyed the experience. The location was quaint, and the home was very inviting. Debi and Mike were very hands-on. The instructions were detailed but not cumbersome. Our meal turned out quite yummy. The candid shots of the experience were a welcomed bonus.

Debi and Mike were amazing!!! They made us feel welcomed and comfortable from the moment we arrived. The pasta and ravioli we made was amazing and the sauce for the ravioli was perfect. I honestly would love to experience this again! Now we have pasta in the fridge for tomorrow and full bellies from a wonderful dinner. Also, Debi and Mike leave you with recipes, a pound of pasta, and memories for a lifetime. This was definitely a bonding experience that my partner and I needed!

Spending time learning to make authentic pasta is a wonderful experience. Being able to partake in your own creations is amazing. Debi and Mike are knowledgeable and extremely easy going. They instruct you how you need but give you the space to make your mistakes. Everything turned out amazing and I am so happy with my pasta class!

Love love loved this experience. Mike and Debi were patient, kind, informative and really good at making pasta! We have already recommended the experience to several friends! If they ever have a sushi making class… we are there!

Debi and Mike were absolutely incredible welcoming us into their home for this one of a kind experience. My boyfriend and I had an excellent time learning from both of them as they walked us through an engaging, hands-on experience. Debi’s masterful knowledge and tips helped us produce a superb pasta dish and we can’t wait to try out everything she taught us on our own. I can’t recommend their class enough— it is a must do! And also a special note of thanks— they were incredible patient and understanding through rescheduling and finding new times for our experience.

We had a wonderful time with Debi and Mike! The pasta making class was so quaint and fun. They are both very experienced and great teachers. It was difficult to believe we made pasta that was so good with no experience. This is a perfect couple's activity and we HIGHLY recommend booking this experience!

We, four friends, had a fabulous experience yesterday: making pasta, laughing, learning, talking a lot, sipping delicious cappuccino and eating the fruits of our labors! Debi and Mike graciously welcomed us into their lovely home with a ‘Happy Birthday’ flag in celebration of my birthday 🎉! It was the perfect experience with dear friends! So grateful!!

4 close friends decided to start celebrating special events with "experiences vs things" and this was a perfect way to enjoy a birthday celebration together. Mike and Debi are excellent hosts and teachers, and had even put a "Happy Birthday" banner outside their lovely home to greet us as we arrived. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with them and highly recommend this pasta-making experience! The end result is a delicious meal and fun memories!!!

Debi & Mike provided a warm comfortable experience for us! It was so much fun!

Fantastic time! Enjoyed every bit.

My boyfriend and I attended the pasta cooking class this evening, and it was incredible. We had requested a lactose-friendly option. Debi and Mile exceeded our request. We highly recommend it, and we will plan a double date soon with our friends!

Our family had a great time learning to make authentic Italian pasta. Mike and Debi were great teachers - very patient, personable and kind, and gladly answered all of the questions we had along the way. We loved how Debi personalized the experience for our family, from the type of sauce we preferred to the amount of spice. We highly recommend this experience! Our family can't wait to practice our new skills in our own kitchen!

My partner and I enjoyed this experience on New Years Eve. Debi and Mike were very sweet, patient, and accommodating. I felt welcomed in their home, I learned a lot, and the food was delicious. Instructions were helpful and easy to find. I highly recommend this experience.
