Works great now

If you want audio to work in the videos then make sure your mute switch isn’t on. I made that mistake and the developers did respond appropriately. Thank you!

You are welcome 🥂

Audio in videos doesn’t work

Not sure if it’s just me but whenever I watch the videos. There is no audio with them.

Someone who expects quality.

Thanks for the report but there are no apparent problems on the audio of the videos. Make sure you don't have the mute button on or try turning up the volume during playback. I hope you can fix the problem and edit the submitted review. If you still have problems please contact us from the appropriate section within the app. Best regards

Good recipes but…

I downloaded the free one first on my phone and finding out that I like it, I paid for the pro thinking that the paid one would also be in my iPad which I use more for following the recipes.
However, the only one I got was the free one with all the ads.
Do I have to pay again to have it on my IPad? How annoying is this? Money does not grow in trees! Therefore, I give 1 star only.

Great recipes!!

Have tried many of the recipes. Easy to follow and are right from Tuscany. It is a great recipe book with videos. I bought the ad free version and it costs less than a cookbook. Awesome!

Nope

After seeing their base recipe for pasta used white flour, I can’t give this app many stars. Italians use semolina or chickpea flour. White flour is for egg noodles. It’s also the popular recipe in the US for pasta. If they can’t tell me how to make real Italian pasta how can they tell me how to make anything the way real Italians do? Pass on this app.

Perfect recipes

The recipes are wonderful! Whole hearty meals with step by step instructions with exact measurements. This makes it perfect for the amateur trying to learn cooking good food

Review

This site has possibilities, but there are too few recipes for the cost. I am 100% Tuscan Italian and a lot of the traditional recipes are missing. It could be a good site but not for the price in its current limited recipes.

I agree with this and am also 100% Tuscan Italian. Very, very limited recipes. Hard website to use.

Un bel coraggio dare due stelle... si vede che se italiano... 😂

Access recipes? WHAT recipes!

All I can see (without spending for the upgrade) are the recipe cards. The moment I click a card to view ANY recipe, I get an “Upgrade to Pro” notification. Every. Single. Time.

I don’t think I want to chance my $8.99 on just pictures.

Decent Recipes, but . . .

Changed app settings to US units. Can view in US units, but prints in Metric units. Could use more recipes, but what is there is of a good variety and contain easy-to-understand instructions.

There is only a sparse number of recipes. Expected many more.

Minimal recipes

Probably OK for free but you only get a dozen recipes per category!

You'd do better via Google!

Absolute waste if money

If you want to waste your money then this is the app for you. Just take a look at the starters, it really is "how to put stuff on bread" for the most part. Nip on Amazon and look for an Italian Recipe book and save yourself a bit of money. This really is someone with no scruples trying to rip off as many people as possible. Beware!!

Not So Good.

Great, easy to understand recipes but after a few minutes scanning recipes the app requires you to upgrade before going further.

Poor availability of basic APP

The recipes are pretty good, but it really blocks you from moving between recipes and keeps dumping you into the advertisement for buying the upgrade. I’m not gonna buy the upgrade until I’m able to access the recipes. Also, after you look at the first recipe the next 20 loads extremely slowly if at all
