A great local experience

We spent over 3 wonderful hours on this tour. Our host Daniela gave us a lovely insight into her La Spezia and Italian cooking at home. We left fully content having experienced the making and eating of several dishes with wine. Gnocchi Daniela style will certainly be on our menu in the future.

10/10 pasta making course with authentic chef

We meet Paola at the market as provided. She was amazing with helping guide how to pick the freshest ingredients based on the seasons and personal preferences. The second part of the tour was a walking tour to see the city center and rich historical culture. The third part of the tour in her home was charming and delicious as she showed us how to make authentic Italian pasta (with the ingredients we bought at the market). The host was more than accommodating and welcoming!

Amazing cooking class with Daniella!

Amazing cooking class with a La Spezia local. Daniella's cooking knowledge was displayed throughout our time together and her personality made the day very special. We learned to make gnocchi, vegetable sauce and she prepared an amazing ragu. We had a wonderful meal, incredible dessert and terrific conversation with Daniella and her husband Giani. Thank you for an wonderful experience! We highly recommend!

Daniela was an excellent and welcoming hostess and great teacher. We had a terrific time creating gnocchi and then enjoying a lovely meal with local wines and dessert in her beautiful home with both her and her husband Gianni.

Gemeinsam lecker kochen, italienische Gastfreundschaft

Es war eine tolle Erfahrung mit unseren Gastgebern zuerst auf den Markt in La Spezia zu gehen und die Zutaten dann bei ihnen zu Hause zu kochen. Wir durften ihre italienische Gastfreundschaft geniesen, konnten einiges über die italienische Küche lernen und das gemeinsam zubereitete Essen war dann äusserst lecker! Vielen Dank!
