“We had our purse stolen with our credit cards and one phone inside shortly before our cooking class. You can see from the police report we were in the police station shortly before the class was due to start. We had to cancel our cards, disable phone, and talk with the police. We are not from Italy so it was very difficult. I tried to explain to the chef but she showed no empathy and sent me a rude message about us being late. I can’t comment on the class but if something comes up know that you will not be given any grace.”
