토스카나 시골 가정식 요리 강습 (키안티 지역) - 와인과 함께

100% recommend! The ladies warmly welcomed us into their home, were so beautiful and friendly, and the recipes we prepared, cooked and ate were amazing. The red wine we accompanied out food with was local and divine! Do yourself a favour and book this class with these ladies.

It was like a friend invited us to a luncheon at home and we cooked together! It was a wonderful experience where we learned how to make pasta, picked up great tips, laughed a lot, and ate very nicely.

We had a fantastic cooking experience with Valentina, Anna Maria and guests. Our cooking teachers were not only skill ful but also so welcoming, warm and full of energy. Sharing thoughts, ideas and laughs with a little assistance of google translate in Valentina and Francesco's nice kitchen when a brief thunder weather past by was amazing. You all made this day life memorable. Thank you so much!

This cooking class was one of the best experiences of our life. Not only were the two hosts extremely welcoming, but they taught us incredible knowledge. I am so thankful for this experience and recommend it highly to anyone visiting the Florence area.

If you're looking to feel at home in middle of beautiful Tuscany while hand-kneading pasta, this is the class to take. Annamaria and Valentina are the kindest teachers you could ever ask for. They invited us into their home and let us meet their dog Muzo and cat Mia. Even though we didn't speak much Italian and they didn't speak much English, we still understood each other on a level that felt like family. Like our Italian aunts were teaching us the ways of our people (mind you, we're South Asian!). We learned how to hand knead pasta made out of semolina flour, we learned how to make fusilli by hand, and how to use a pasta machine to make tagliatelle. Once we finished that, they set up a lovely lunch for us including appetizers (or a first course) that they cooked themselves before we arrived. We begged them for the recipes because we can't live the rest of us without being able to make such deliciousness ourselves, even if it isn't as yummy as what they made. Then, Annamaria cooked our two pastas and we got to dine on what we made ourselves, with love. I'm not exaggerating, it was my favorite pasta during the whole trip! We traveled through Roma, Firenze, and Venezia, experiencing so much in such little time, and yet this class was my favorite by a long shot. It's something my friends and I will remember forever. We'll be 80 years old sitting beside each other in rocking chairs and asking, "Remember that pasta making class we took in Chianti? Remember Annamaria and Valentina? Remember Muzo?!" Thank you, Annamaria and Valentina, for one of the best experiences in our lifetime. We will always remember this, and Muzo, and Mia. But most especially, your kindness. If you're reading this, don't hesitate to take this class. You will never regret it.
