Step into the heart of Florence’s charming Oltrarno district, where tradition and authenticity come together in a welcoming, family-style atmosphere. Our hands-on cooking class takes place in a cosy, locally loved wine restaurant, offering an immersive experience where you’ll cook, laugh, and share stories—just like in an Italian home.
What You’ll Experience
Under the guidance of our passionate local chef Gabriele, you’ll create four classic Italian dishes from scratch, using fresh, high-quality ingredients. You’ll master the art of pasta-making with techniques passed down for generations, and you’ll learn how to prepare each dish with ease and confidence.
Together, we’ll make:
🍝 Tortelli with butter and sage sauce – a rich, delicate dish bursting with flavour
🍅 Basil Gnocchi with fresh tomato sauce – soft, pillowy bites of perfection
🌿 Tagliatelle Pasta with a delicious seasonal sauce – inspired by what’s fresh and local
🍰 Tiramisù – the ultimate Italian dessert, creamy and indulgent
More Than Just Cooking – A Full Italian Experience
After the hands-on cooking session, you’ll sit down and enjoy the fruits of your labour in a relaxed, friendly setting. The experience will be paired with two carefully selected wines from our wine cellar, chosen to complement the flavours of your homemade dishes.
We welcome vegetarians with open arms – just let us know in advance, and we’ll happily accommodate you!
