Make pizza or pasta and gelato at a Tuscan farm, with wine, countryside views, transport from Florence, and recipes to take home.
“We travel a lot and usually are not ones to opt for organized activities, but I’ll have to say this one was really fun as well as informative. The ride up is scenic, but then you walk down a path that opens up to fields of olive trees and gardens, which in itself is purely magical. In addition the facilities are very welcoming with a well designed country kitchen feel. Everything was immaculately cared for and very clean and tidy. Our 3 chefs, Cris, Tiziano and Lodovik were amazing! Super engaging as they guided the group with their precision skills and even some comedic relief. All the ingredients were fresh…”

We were also lucky enough to have Bruno play his keyboard and sing for us while we cooked. After we cooked we got to sit down and enjoy our amazing meal with the whole family washed down with some of their beautiful homemade wine. And Bruno went out of his way to make sure we got back…”

He made everyone feel right at home from the start. What really set this apart was beginning the day at the local market: grabbing breakfast at the bakery, getting our cut of meat from the butcher, hand-picking vegetables & selecting cheeses. It felt like I was truly living a day in the life of a Roman chef/local. Then there was the kitchen which absolutely is stunning! We cooked a feast: fresh pasta, veal cotoletta, salad and tiramisu with plenty of prosciutto, cheeses, cookies…”
