Honestly, the best GF meal we had in Rome!
What an amazing experience learning to make GF foccacia, GF pumpkin ravioli and GF fettuccine with fresh tomatoes, basil, garlic, and more! Chef Vary's recipe ideas were so creative, and the fresh vegetables and flavors came together beautifully. Every GF dish had such a wonderful flavor profile. She has a real gift for teaching and she made everything fun, welcoming, and easy to follow while sharing so many delicious ideas. I left inspired and excited to try these recipes at home. Highly recomm...read more

Thank you so much for your wonderful words! ❤️
It was an absolute pleasure cooking with you and sharing our passion for gluten-free Tuscan cuisine! I'm especially happy that you enjoyed not only the recipes, but also the little secrets, techniques, and creativity behind them. That's exactly what we love to share!
And just one tiny geographical detail... we're in **Florence, not Rome!** 😂
Thank you again for your kindness and enthusiasm. I hope these recipes bring a little taste of Florence into your kitchen back home!
With warmest wishes, Chef Vary® by Varinia Cappelletti

Incredible experience! You can’t miss it
This was hands down our favorite thing we have done so far in Italy. The experience had me smiling the entire time and genuinely we feel like we learned a lot about gluten free cooking that we can use when we go home. The food was fantastic but what was even better was the chef and her husband as the atmosphere they create. I would recommend this to anyone, worth every penny. The focaccia, the pastas, and the dessert were the best I’ve had here, and maybe ever. Thank you so much to the lovely pe...read more

This was so much fun!...
This was so much fun! Being able to make and gluten free pasta was a treat. The family chefs kept everything light and fun. It was a great evening.

Excellent gluten free cooking class
Excellent class and there were only 3 of us. Facility was very clean and our instructor was great with a good sense of humor. We made a leek sauce with homemade ravioli, pasta sauce with homemade spaghetti and focaccia bread with caramelized onions. Few, simple and tasty ingredients.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! We are delighted that you enjoyed the class, the recipes, and the relaxed atmosphere created by your personal chef!
We especially appreciate your comment about being only three participants. For us, a small class is never a problem—quite the opposite. We are genuinely happy to welcome even just a few guests, as this allows us to offer an even more personal, hands-on, and enjoyable experience.
We are also very pleased that you noticed how clean the facility was. In a gluten-free cooking class, cleanliness is not simply about appearance: safety is essential. Our gluten-free classes take place in a dedicated, completely separate kitchen, with its own equipment and utensils. This means that our guests can actively prepare every recipe themselves in a safe environment, rather than simply watching or cooking in a shared traditional kitchen.
It was a pleasure making ravioli with leek sauce, homemade spaghetti, and focaccia with caramelized onions together. A few fresh, simple ingredients and good company are often the secret to the best Italian food!

A must do while in Florence.
This was the highlight of our trip. Chef Julio was amazing and the class was so much fun. We learned a lot. With 2 kids having celiac - this was the perfect outing . Our family will remember this night for a long time.

Thank you so much for your kind words.
We are truly grateful that your evening with us became such a special memory for your family. I will be sure to pass your compliments on to Chef Giulio—he will be delighted to hear them.
It was especially rewarding to see your children enjoy the experience without having to worry about gluten. At our school, we take great care in preparing everything from scratch, and having separate kitchens allows us to welcome families with different dietary needs comfortably and safely.
Thank you again for choosing to spend part of your Florence trip with us. We wish your family many more wonderful culinary adventures together!
