And if you're lucky enough to get Vanessa- bonus! I wanted the full experience...including the pastry making and this is it! Time went quickly but we were not rushed. Magically Vanessa has transformed my friend who went just to please me into someone who said "let's do more cooking classes" ! Well done!!!”
