Amazing class!

This is truly a masterclass for people who love different kinds of pasta. We made different kinds of pasta, my favorites being squid ink pasta with salmon in a lemon sauce and the potato gnocchi and finished with a really tasty dessert semifreddo al croccantino but this might sometimes rotate and be replaced by another dessert. Amazing class!

Perfect class

Our Cozymeal chef was awesome. We had the best time and the food was great and plentiful. Hands on cooking with some great tips. We loved the Fettuccine and the seafood sauce we made and the semifreddo al croccantino (hopefully I spelled it right) was perfect! Thank you Chef!

Best cooking class ever. Thank you chef!

We had the most brilliant time with chef Lucio. He was so warm and funny that I felt right at home from the start. We rolled fresh ravioli stuffed with ricotta and spinach, made silky squid ink pasta with salmon, shaped soft gnocchi and tagliatelle, and paired them with delicious sauces. I left absolutely stuffed and grinning like a fool. If you are in Lucca you really must give this a go.

This class was hands down one of the highlights of our trip to Lucca. Our chef was warm, reassuring and genuinely skilled at gently guiding everyone. We shaped colorful fresh pasta by hand and learnt great techniques rooted in the region’s tradition. The experience felt intimate and grounded, not rushed despite the pace. By the end we sat down to enjoy a three-course meal where each pasta tasted like a little piece of Tuscan heritage. We walked away full, fulfilled and excited to bring that tast...read more
