Experience Details

A 3-hour hands-on cooking lesson lightly touching upon some of the most interesting facets of Italian, and in particular, Venetian cuisine.


Using local seasonal products, we’ll prepare an entire meal together to be enjoyed in the relaxed surroundings of A Tavola’s architect-designed workspace, or outdoors in the charming courtyard/garden when the weather allows!


Each season has its ingredients and each Italian festivity has its dishes and together we’ll create the most iconic examples of Venetian cuisine in line with long-held family traditions passed down through generations.


We’ll talk about the history of Venetian cookery and the abundance of ingredients sourced from the Venetian Lagoon and, through sharing and cooking together, you’ll discover the secrets of preparing a selection of exquisite local dishes that you’ll be able to recreate at home on your return.

What You’ll Experience

Whether you’re a cooking enthusiast, just like to dabble, or don’t know your Cannellini from your Cannelloni, together we’ll create and enjoy the dishes we Venetians love to serve at home! You’ll be led on your Italian food-fest by one of our expert local chefs, specially chosen for their energy and intuitive approach to teaching (no slavish reliance on boring recipe books here!), they’ll share their intimate knowledge of Venice and its culinary history while you perfect your skills at the worktop and the stove. Following and feasting on a menu of simple cucina casalinga (home-cooking) made with the freshest seasonal ingredients, dishes may include specialties such as Fondi di Carciofo from Sant’Erasmo, perhaps Prawns in Saor. Maybe a Risotto with Bruscandoli or Asparagus, Homemade Pasta alla Busara and a tempting Tiramisu Cooking classes take place at our dedicated space, located in a quiet relaxed fondamenta by the canal.
