Step into Florence’s authentic Oltrarno district and discover Italian cuisine where it truly comes to life — in the kitchen. At a dedicated Florentine cooking school, you’ll get hands-on with fresh ingredients, traditional recipes and the techniques behind some of Italy’s most loved dishes.
What You’ll Experience 👨🍳
It all starts with fresh pasta.
With the help of your chef, you’ll learn how to prepare pasta dough from scratch, working it by hand and discovering the techniques behind one of Italy’s most iconic culinary traditions.
Then it’s time to roll, shape and cook. You’ll prepare two different types of pasta, each paired with its own sauce, learning simple techniques and recipes that you can recreate once you’re back home
But an Italian meal wouldn’t be complete without something sweet. Together with the chef, you’ll also prepare a traditional Italian dessert to finish your menu.
And after all that cooking? You’ve earned the best part.
Take a seat and enjoy the pasta and dessert you’ve prepared, accompanied by unlimited wine. Because in Italy, cooking is only half the experience: sharing the meal is just as important.
You’ll leave with new recipes, new skills, and a little taste of Italy to recreate back home.
We welcome vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free with open arms – just let us know in advance, and we’ll happily accommodate you!
