Amazing - What an amazing and informative tour! Mila is the best! She is kind , funny, and filled with amazing knowledge. We live in the area and it was great to learn about the history of the market. I am not a cook or baker but even my biscuits turned out delicious with Mila's guidance. All the food we tried was fantastic. I would recommend this to locals or out of townwers!

Fun biscuits making class - Glenn was really knowledgeable about the Curb Market and bread making and very friendly. My friend and I ended uo being the the only ones in the tour so we got a private tour. The biscuit making was really fun too! And they came out great! I cant wait to try it now that I'm back home.
