Great cooking class at a... - Great cooking class at a private home outside of the city of Florence. So much fun meeting new people. Louisa and Gaia were great! Learned some new techniques and made and ate some great pasta. Had lots of prosecco and laughs! Gaia’s fruit tart for dessert was amazing! Highly recommend this class. Home is from approximately the 1600’s and views are amazing!

An absolute MUST do cooking class with a beautiful view. - OMG! This was a fantastic cooking experience! Louise was an excellent host and was very lovely overall. The view was absolutely amazing which helped make this experience even more special. The bottomless Rose’ was also a very nice touch :-) You make MORE than enough food so don’t worry about not having enough to eat.

Fun, hands on - Just do this fun cooking class! It’s a MUST!!! Learning to make 3 styles of pasta- gnocchi, tortellini and spaghetti was very hands on and fun. Making 3 different sauces from pomodoro basil, sage butter and parsley butter garlic. Prosecco and red wine, espresso, tarts and cookies… everything you want and didn’t know you needed. Do it because cooking is love.

Magic evening in Florence - What a magnificent night! We learned how to make gnocchi, spaghetti, and a stuffed pasta. Francey and Luicia were fun, informative, and so welcoming to the home. Bring an empty stomach, and a camera, the views from the home were stunning. An unforgettable evening in Florence. I would absolutely do this again!
