Today was the last day of this class.
Each team of students cooked one of the menus they studied during this course.

Professor Francesco tasted all dishes students cooked, and the team that got the highest evaluation was supposed to win the competition.
He, however, could not decide the winner by himself because the result was so close. So he had the students vote as well, and Elisa and Ms. Yoshida’s team became the winner just by a hair.
Looking at their really happy faces, their classmates congratulated them with warm applause.

It happened to be one of the classmates’ birthday today, so they surprised the birthday girl with a dessert plate and happy birthday songs both in English and Italian. Professor Francesco said that he was truly impressed by the strong bond this class had.

I myself enjoyed taking pictures in this class for the past 2 months, and I could bet that everyone had the best expressions on their faces today. They all looked really cool and lively when cooking!
I’m sure the bond between students in this class will become stronger even after this course is over. I truly hope they have a bright future ahead.
In bocca al lupo! (Good luck!)
