Last week I went to a cooking class at
Olives 4 You for Rustic Italian Cooking (found it through Groupon). It was a great experience. The chef was born in France, but his grandmother lived in Italy and taught him traditional Italian cooking. It was an absolutely fantastic meal and I learned a lot of little technique hints in addition to the recipes. One thing I learned is that Alfredo sauce is not actually a cream sauce. It consists of only butter, Parmesan and pasta water. And it was fantastic. Of course with that much butter and cheese why wouldn't it be. Here is a quick look at what he made and we ate (some don't have great presentation since most were just serving size for each person).

Ravioli Florentina with Crema Rosa Wine Sauce
(loved the egg yoke that broke into the sauce once cut open... not sure if I could actually make this work at home)
Traditional Fettuccini Alfredo
Sauteed Chicken Scallopini in Marsala wine sauce
