Why just take your date out to eat? Try a Sacramento cooking class at Napoli Culinary Academy

Why just take your date out to eat? Try a Sacramento cooking class at Napoli Culinary Academy
I'm has Sadri. We're in Napoli Culinary Academy in Sacramento. People choose to pick *** good class. They like different cuisines from different countries. Recipes are sitting on *** table for them. Then we demonstrate and then we make them cook and then they eat, they're accomplishing something together and they're eating it together. I think that's *** great atmosphere for just knowing each other 20 minutes ago. Hi. Hello, Anthony Nicole. Nice to meet you. Have *** seat. Thank you. Are you excited for our date? I am excited. You been here before? I have not. The decorations really need to know. It is really cool. Are you *** good cook? I am *** good cook. Ok. You might have to help me out *** little bit then happy to help. I have an air fryer. So it's not really, that takes that much uh, skills. You too ready to cook? Yes, let's do it. Nicole. She's *** beautiful girl when she came in. It was kind of like slow motion. I think he looks like *** gentleman. He was really polite because he stood up as soon as I walked in, there's definitely some chemistry there just in our personalities. Take one of these pastas, I'll do one to just show you put your hand underneath and go. All right. And you're coming right next to me right here. Lay it horizontally this way real fast. You gotta do this fast if you're hungry, make sure both sides eat fully hanging. You get one yourself too. OK. OK. Bring it out here. All right. OK. Quarter of an inch overlap and lay it down. So I'm getting another one. Get another one. All right. We got to do this fast. I'm hungry. Get out and get the meal going. The cooking class was *** lot faster than I thought it would go. But it made it *** little bit more fun and it made things *** lot quicker so I could eat faster. One of you are gonna pass it around without damaging the plaster. Go for it. I'll go for it and you, we're going all the way around. The whole, the whole thing bottom has gotta be fixed. Ok. It's gonna be nice and flat. No slopes. Ok. No slopes last there. You were slowing down. I didn't want to break it. Well, that's the excuse. It's my first time. Send it to her. Ok, here we go. Finish it out. Make sure the corner is covered. I think *** cooking class makes *** good first date because it's hands on and interactive. So you get in each other's space. So it's not this awkward sitting across the table from each other. It's not sitting next to each other just throwing question after question. We actually get to make something together and then you get *** little bit more comfortable with each other. Get *** piece. All right. Hold on as you are. OK. Yeah. The one you have one of the reject ones. Yeah. The reject one. OK. I like the name you put on here. Not that way. This way. Long way right here. Cover that. Cover this. Go ahead. Now it comes the beef. That was your base ricotta cheese. Now, let's give some beef to it. Drop the beef. Here you guys are gonna pass it on. All right, because you need to almost taste your meals when you're doing it. OK? Here that's for you. Oh COVID friendly turned up there. You are COVID friendly like that. You won't get any for no lady. It's take your parmesan, throw it over like this. The fact that we share the same sense of humor. I think that's really important. Um, in *** long term partnership is that you can laugh at yourself and you can laugh at each other and we did *** lot of that tonight. I can just tuck it in baby. Go ahead. This one's not long enough, fast enough. Go keep going. Put your hand on it. I have no fear. You. Not too hard. I can't believe we made this. I know. Right. I feel like an expert. I don't know if I can recreate this at all. This is really good. It's delicious. So, what are some red flags for you? Red flags are always like ***, it's *** weird thing for me because I've just dated *** lot. The normal red flags. Maybe not, like, be *** serial killer or like, maybe like my standards of, I'm just looking for the bare minimum like it seems like, but I don't even know if this is gonna be all good with me. All right, we'll keep going. Um It's just trying to find someone with that, that connection and sometimes obviously I can look over other red flags that I used to have. Yeah. The hardest part is just getting someone that you like really connect with and you can see like *** real future with. I feel the same. I'm looking to date more seriously. I just have more time now that my son is older to actually date and pursue *** relationship. Proud mama. Yeah, I'm super proud. Cheers to that. I have *** little bit. Two cheers, small, small sip left. I would see Anthony again. He's awesome. He seems like he knows how to have *** really good time. So I would definitely wanna hang out with him again and laugh some more. I thought the day went amazing to me. I would definitely like to see Nicole again. Coming up. Nicole's first date with Anthony was all live laugh lasagna will she find her complimentary colors with her next date or will it be *** blank canvas?
