What To Expect

A full day hands-on Cooking Class in a stunning setting in the Tuscan countryside, including a

market visit topped off with a 4-course lunch.

Search for fresh ingredients at Florence’s historic central food market before traveling to our

beautiful Tuscan farmhouse in the countryside. On arrival be prepared to roll up your sleeves,

you will start creating a complete menu, from appetizer to dessert.

Master the secrets of traditional dishes that you will easily re-create at home for your friends and

family. The cooking lesson is suitable for beginners and for those who can already cook.

Then finally we will all sit together on a terrace hosting incredible views over the Tuscan hills and just like a big Italian family, we will take time to enjoy the food we have prepared together,

complemented with Chianti wine. Buon appetito!

Sample Menu:
- Tomatoes bruschetta
- Tagliatelle with beef tomato sauce
