We had such a fantastic time!

We highly recommend booking a cooking class with Paola. We had such a fantastic time! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Paola, Massimo, and their lovely dog Toby. Paola taught us how to make fresh pasta and classic tiramisu, which was not only delicious but also a lot of fun.

Wonderful cooking class - our favorite part of italy!

If you’re staying near Forte dei Marmi, do yourself a favor and book this cooking class. It was the highlight of our whole trip to Italy! It was amazing for us to escape the more touristy areas of Florence and Rome we were in earlier in our trip and enter into a real Italian household. Paola, Roberta, and Massimo made us feel at home and we were so happy to get to spend time with them while learning to cool. We started by preparing fresh ravioli filled with ricotta and spinach, followed by a ...read more
