If you’re looking for a personalize, true Italian home cooking experience, this is 100% it. One of the best experiences we've had in Florence. Wonderful family and a fun, casual experience to Italian home pasta cooking/making. Loved it!
We had such a fun time with Camilla and her family. They were so welcoming it was like having dinner with friends. We enjoyed learning about their lives and customs of the area. Cant say enough good things about our evening.
Thank you Jennifer! We spent good time with you!
It was such a lovely experience! They were incredibly welcoming, we made DELICIOUS food, and had lots of laughs.
Thank you guys!!
We had a great fun evening at Camilla and Samuel's house. We were welcomed very hospitably with a drink and a tour of the house and garden. Nice to see how you can live so quietly in such a busy city. We made delicious fresh pastas (ravioli and tagliatelle) and tiramisu. During the workshop we all used fresh local products and you could definitely taste that! Nice to experience the traditional cuisine of Italy in a small group and chat with each other. It was also very nice to meet the family in person and experience the family feeling in Italy , and then enjoy the carefully prepared evening meal together. We would recommend this to anyone.
Thanks for this lovely review! We are so glad! Thank you so much!

Thanks Celene! thank you so much!
To spend the evening with a welcoming local host was a totally amazing experience for my family and I. We not only cooked and ate a wonderful meal together, but enjoyed rich conversation throughout. Camilla was an accomodating host who tailored the experience to suit our family. She was amazing. It was the absolute highlight of our stay in Florence!
Thanks for your presence!!!
Prepare yourselves for a fun event. Camilla and Samuel were top-notch cooking instructors. Making two kinds of pasta, a red sauce, and tiramisu was a time filled with laughter and learning. Our group of six comprised of three generations shared the meal with Camilla and Samuel. Our evening was one to be savored.
Thanks a lot Ron! Great to spending nice night together!
Amazing experience! We learned about culture, pasta, making sauce, different traditions and drank wine. It felt easy. Like we were visiting with family. Highly recommend
Thanks for your review, that's exactly what we like to hear!
We were warmly welcomed into the home and felt so comfortable for the 3 hours we spent making the most amazing pomodoro. So much better than those typical large corporate cooking classes. Couldn’t recommend more highly.
Thank you Nav! It has been a plasure to meet you and your family!
We had such a wonderful experience at this family-led cooking class in a warm and welcoming Italian home. From the moment we arrived, it felt less like a class and more like being invited in as guests. The conversation flowed easily throughout the evening, full of stories, laughter, and little cultural insights that made the experience feel truly special. The cooking itself was hands-on and enjoyable, with clear guidance that made everything approachable and fun. Our two kids participated as well, and they absolutely loved it—they were engaged the whole time and proud to help create the meal. It was such a joy to see them included and excited about the process. The evening ended with a lovely dinner that we all shared together, enjoying the dish we had prepared. Everything was delicious, and the atmosphere made it even more memorable. Overall, it was a perfect blend of great conversation, a delightful cooking experience, and an unforgettable meal. Highly recommended for families and anyone looking for an authentic, personal experience.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback!
