Five Star Experience

Me and my fiance had a wonderful time at this cooking class. Our host was kind, knowledgeable, and patient with teaching us how to make tortellini from scratch. This was the time we have ever done a cooking class, and won’t be our last. Doing this at a locals house made the experience more authentic. The food was amazing and our host even provided us with wine and dessert. This is the perfect experience for a couple for a few friends who want to immerse themselves in Italian culture.

FANTASTIC PASTA CLASS!!

Valeria and Valentina were outstanding. We began our afternoon seated in a beautiful living room where we munched on light snacks, had a drink, and got to know one another. Then they set up a folding table and brought out all of the ingredients we would be using for our meal. We began with an easy and delicious cherry ricotta tart. Then we moved on to making our own fresh pasta dough and rolled into long strands. While the pasta rested, we made a yummy bruschetta of tomato, basil, and olives. An...read more

Memorable evening with a lovely host

Silvia created such a lovely experience with us in her charming and spacious home. Her kitchen is well-appointed and perfectly suited to demonstrating how she prepares the various recipes. She was very thorough in her explanations and had sourced beautiful, fresh produce and other local ingredients for the evening's meal. The gnocchi were pillow-soft and melted in my mouth, and the meat sauce was superb. There were only two of us attending (sisters-in-law), so the three of us had a really in...read more

Memorable, fun and informative!

We had a great time making pici in a tomato and vegetable sauce, gnocchi in a cacio e pepe sauce and tiramisù. Our host, Barbara was very hospitable and showed us how to make delicious Tuscan dishes in her well-equipped home. She had recommendations for restaurants in the towns/cities we were visited and even sent us her recipes so we could make them at home. Our friends and family have enjoyed trying our best efforts at Tuscan cuisine! This was one of the best memories from our trip, we highly ...read more
