Insider secrets & local vibes

Not independently verified — estimated
An optional market visit first and a sit-down shared meal at the end make it a social afternoon, not just a demo, and you leave with a real take-home skill.
Not independently verified — estimated
It's still a half-day commitment and the core recipes are crowd-pleasing classics, so it's a poor fit on a tight, sights-packed schedule.
