Giancarlo Ferrara (above) is an internationally recognized Italian chef who opened his wildly popular Amalfi Ristorante Italiano & Bar in Houston back in 2014.

He’s one of the city’s leading pastamakers and focuses on the cuisine of southern Italy.

When Houston Chronicle restaurant critic Alison Cook first reviewed the restaurant the following year, she declared: “With Amalfi, an Italian star is born.”

We are thrilled to share the news that Giancarlo will be leading a Master Class on authentic Italian foods and foodways in Bentonville, Arkansas on Friday, November 15. Details follow below.
