LUCCAでパスタとジェラートの料理教室

We had a fantastic time making pasta and gelato! The class was really hands-on, engaging and so much fun from start to finish. There was plenty of space to work, and everything was explained really well, so it never felt too difficult or rushed. The pasta and gelato were both delicious, but what we especially loved was how the class showed us just how easy it can actually be to make them ourselves. We left feeling like these are things we could realistically make at home and incorporate into everyday life without it feeling like a huge effort or chore. Such a fun experience and easily one of the best cooking classes I’ve ever done. Would definitely recommend if you’re visiting Lucca!

My husband, friends, and i thoroughly enjoyed this cooking class led by Ariela! She was so friendly and gave us a bit of a lesson on Italian food culture and its history while we cooked and enjoyed the fruit of our efforts! She did a wonderful job explaining the process to us and giving us directives while keeping it fun. She even took pictures for us and promptly sent them to us the same day. I’d definitely recommend this class!

Ariela was excellent at providing an engaging and fun experience. We all had such an incredible time, learnt new things and even said it was one of the highlights of our whole Italy experience so far. Would highly recommend.

We had a great time with Ariela, who took us through the inns and outs of cooking pasta (2 different ones) and making gelato. Ariela explained everything very clear and taking her time (the italian way) with a good portion of fun. Explaining everything whilst adjusting her glasses continously (one of the legs of her glasses broke loose just before we arrived) added a little 'funny' hand-cap for her but she stood here ground! Finally we had a magnificent Tagliatelli with cherry tomato, onion and oregano, and a lovely Ricotta and Pecorino Ravioli with Butter and Sage. The Gelato with apricots afterwards was stunningly delicious. It was a lovely session to cook with Ariela and we enjoyed every minute of it. An experience not to forget and we can recommend this warmly to all who like to know everything about cooking pasta but were, up until now, afraid to ask. Next, when we are around, we will make sure to book some advanced classes with Ariela. many thnx Ariela for a lovely time. Warm regards Froukje, Marjolein and Rob

It was amazing! Ariela made a nice mix of knowledge and practicality. Time flew and we made delicious pasta and gelato.

Great pasta and gelato cooking class, kind and mindful teacher and a special memory that my kids will cherish.

We visited several countries and experienced several tours as a family of four. This was our favorite! Ariela was wonderful with our young children. She was patient, helpful, and fun. The food was amazing. We loved every bit of it!

Our family with 3 boys loved learning to make pasta and gelato from basic local ingredients! Ariela is a kind and patient teacher. She speaks excellent English and clearly loves teaching others. She makes the steps simple, and by the end even the boys felt like they knew what they were doing. The texture of the pasta and taste is so delicious! Everyone was so happy with what we made.

We had a truly fantastic day with Ariela! She is incredibly sweet, welcoming, and so easy to talk to. Not only did we learn how to make delicious fresh pasta and gelato from scratch, but she also taught us so much about Tuscan food culture and its history. It was wonderful to see how passionate she is about using local, high-quality ingredients. We had so much fun and highly recommend this class to everyone. We are definitely joining her Tiramisu and gelato class the next time we visit Lucca! Thank you, Ariela!

Our three-generation family absolutely loved our cooking class with Ariela! From our 7- and 10-year-old kids to the adults, everyone had an amazing time. In fact, our kids said it was one of their favorite activities during our three-week trip to Italy. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, the pasta & gelato were delicious, and Ariela was so warm, patient, and wonderful at explaining each step in a way that everyone could follow. We highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a fun, authentic, and memorable Italian cooking class!
