Pizza a Casa Pizza School

the best 4 hours spent in new york if you want to learn how to make pizza and have a blast, you must go!!!!

I took this class with my daughter and we both loved it. Mark and Jenny were great- so patient, knowledgeable, and fun to work with. We really learned alot. But if you are a casual pizza cook and just want to go have fun with friends, it is a great class too. The pizza we got to taste was so flavorful and different that it really opened my eyes to what you can do with pizza that is different than the norm. Worth every penny.

Wow...the pear/banana/cinnamon/caramel pizza is just AWESOME. The pancetta and pepper pizza is tops too. There wasn't any pizza that wasn't good! We made an "Elvis" too...peanuts, bananas, and nutella. Had a ton of fun.

Could not have been happier with the atmosphere, the friendliness of the owners/teachers and the amount of pizza we could make and consume (still two full boxes in our fridge 3 days later...). We left with a very comprehensive set of instructions and the desire to never buy pizza again!! Simple and delicious. Great for tourists and locals. It will be one of my go-to presents from now on i think.

If you only have time for one activity - this is the one you should do! The entire night was absolutely worth every cent~ very informative, very fun, and totally delicious!

My husband and I couldn't believe how much fun we had at Pizza a Casa and how much we learned. First, Mark and his crew are terrific! Mark has a terrific personality and made the four hour class fly by. He's an excellent, patient, enthusiastic teacher. Watching him make four pizzas before we got started made things much easier. We were thrilled with the four pizzas we each made and can't wait to make them for our boys at home. What a unique thing to do on vacation and we learned a skill we'll enjoy the rest of our lives. Thank you so much, Mark, Jen and Sam. Thin crust rocks! Ron and Rebecca from Michigan

I had made pizzas before so went in somewhat skeptical, but it was brilliant!

I took my boyfriend here for his birthday because he LOVES pizza . The class was fun and informative. The instructor's personality and teaching style reminded me of the host from Food Network's show "Good Eats". He was excited about pizza and informative. The teaching assistants were very helpful and friendly. We were given a list of possible pizzas we could make in class, but were also encouraged to be inventive with the ingredients in the kitchen.The decor of the class was funky and stylish. Overall, this class was money well spent...and i def won bonus points with the boyfriend.

My husband and I love to cook but we are not chefs. Mark made it really easy and showed us how to make very delicious pizza from ingredients you can find at your local grocery store and cook right in your own oven at home. We felt comfortable right from the moment we got there and had lots of fun learning, cooking, and tasting. My favorite was the bananas and nutella!

Just like a class in Italy, but in English! Lots of hands on learning, small class size, and great anecdotal stories. Mark should have his own pizza tv show - he is pizza passionate! My only regret is no red wine while cooking....

Mark is a great teacher and pizza artist extraordinaire! After the class I feel like I have been making pizza from scratch..and I mean scratch for years! If you want to learn how to make the best pizzas in a fun atmosphere...this is the place!!! The only downside is that the even though the class lasts 4 hours NO ONE wanted to leave! We just wanted to keep making and tasting each others creations! Just do it and don't think about it twice is my advise to anyone even thinking about it..YOU WILL be GLAD YOU DID!!

Great, great, great class. Easy for everyone to understand and lots of attention is paid to each individual. Going to recommend to all of my friends that live in the area and visit from out of town.

Mark is very knowledgeable; he and Jenny make it fun.

This class is 100% worth the time, money, and effort. Mark is so knowledgeable, funny, and engaging, that he really captivated us all afternoon. In addition, we increased our knowledge of the right ingredients, correct cooking techniques, and different combinations of the two that it was well worth it. This was the best cooking class we have taken thus far!

If you're on the fence about whether or not to spend the money on this course, take my advice and sign up. It was the highlight of my latest trip to NYC, and that's saying a lot. Mark & crew were fantastic - so enthusiastic, friendly and helpful. And the best part is that I can now make a NY-style pizza that is a thousand times better than anything I can buy here at home. If budget is an issue, skip the Broadway show, skip the Empire State Building observation deck, skip the overpriced food in Times Square. Spend the money you've saved to take this course. You won't regret it. Thanks for the awesome time Mark & Jenny. - Doug
