## Description

What’s for dinner? Just ask Chef Alfredo ‘Al’ Dente for the special of the day! Use one hand to manipulate the puppet’s mouth and facial expressions while gesturing with the removable wooden rod with the other. Detachable rod is suitable for lefties or righties!

Review: He can be your friend indeed. - It is a nice puppet which can be used to enhance your storytelling techniques. The mouth areas moves as it should. The access to it is a bit tight. It takes a long time to arrive. The only (small) issue is that the finishing of the clothing at one of the seams was not neat. Other than that, its all good. Hope this helps you decide.
Review: Not good - The quality of product was not upto the mark as compared to the price.
