Step into the heart of Florence’s charming Oltrarno district and discover Italian food from the inside at a dedicated Florentine cooking school. Here, traditional recipes and techniques meet a fresh, contemporary approach, creating a hands-on experience where you’ll cook, learn and discover what makes Italian food so special.
What You’ll Experience 👨🍳
First up: pizza.
You’ll work through the process from the beginning, preparing your own dough and sauce and learning the techniques you need to recreate a proper homemade pizza long after your trip to Italy is over.
Then comes dessert.
Together with the chef, you’ll discover how Italian gelato is made and prepare two different flavours using fresh, locally sourced ingredients.
And after all that cooking? You’ve earned the best part.
Take a seat around the table, pour yourself a glass of wine and enjoy the pizza and gelato you’ve just made with the rest of the group
Come hungry and ready to get your hands dirty. This is not a cooking demonstration – you’ll mix, knead, cook, taste and learn, discovering what goes into two of Italy’s most loved creations.
We welcome vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free with open arms – just let us know in advance, and we’ll happily accommodate you!
