Florence cooking class - Wow our cooking class was nothing short of amazing !! Cecilia our host, welcomed us into her home so warmly. We had a small group which was perfect as we could all engage in the experience. Learning to make pasta and desert Cecilia explained everything as we went and was so knowledgeable, her recipe was unique , with freshest of ingredients. We had fun as we learned and chatted. Sitting down to indulge in ravioli , tiramisu and local wine all with the most stunning view over the City of Florence . Getting there was also easy with a short walk from the train. We left with beautiful memories a wonderful experience and hands down the best pasta we had in all our travels of Italy . Thankyou so much 🙌🥰

Best Experience During our Florence Visit - We had an utterly wonderful evening with our fantastic host & cook, Cristina. She picked us up in Florence (by Santa Croce) and drove us to her home in northern Florence. The home was gorgeous and she took the time to teach us how to make two excellent pasta dishes and tiramisu. She was friendly and a wonderful teacher. This was truly a treasured memory for the rest of our lives. I recommend her to anyone who wants to learn how to cook & make a great memory!

What a wonderful experience! - Our host was Donatella. She was welcoming and wonderful. Myself and my daughters enjoyed the lesson and absolutely enjoyed the food! The home cooking lesson not only provided a lesson on making homemade past and tiramisu but also having dinner with a family in Florence.

True Memory Maker - The whole experience was wonderful. We learned how to make Pasta from scratch and ate the results of our work at a beautiful home in the countryside. She made us feel so comfortable as we learned. The trip to Italy was great, but this will always be a very treasured memory.

Absolutely wonderful!! - I wish I could give this experience 10 stars! Cristina was warm and welcoming. We made all the dishes in her kitchen and it was some of the best Italian food I have ever had!! I had never made pasta before, wouldn’t even have attempted it. She was a wonderful teacher. I cannot recommend this experience enough. Thank you Cristina for a fun day and a lovely dinner!

Gorgeous home and incredible host - Cristina (hostess) is incredible and sweet. She opened her beautiful home to our family- we had so much fun cooking together as she taught us decades old recipes passed down generations. We can’t wait to make pasta from scratch when we return home.

Best experience you could book - It’s going to be the highlight of our trip to Italy when we tell everyone back home about cooking with Cristina! What an amazing experience with a truly terrific woman for our family of 5. Her Tuscan country home is breathtaking, the dinner we made together and enjoyed al fresco on her terrace patio overlooking the hills as the sun set was magnificent. If you are in Florence and have the opportunity to request this lovely chef, I guarantee it will exceed even your highest expectations.
