COOKING CLASSES FOR LOVERS OF ITALIAN FOOD
Do you like authentic Italian cooking? What better way to approach this experience with an authentic Italian cook who has learned her cooking secrets passed down from generation to generation.  You can have an informal lesson about Italian cuisine, nutrition, language, history and culture. The course will be held in English, using both metric and imperial measurements. The idea of the lesson is to give you the flavor of true Italian life style and culture through food, an experience for all senses. The lesson will be held in a cozy family and homy environment, so you can truly understand our culture and passion for food. It will include two-three recipes (it depends on the recipe) using fresh seasonal ingredients bought at the local market and will last for 2 ½ hrs-3 hrs. You will start with a welcome appetizer and a glass of prosecco just to set the atmosphere. Above all expect plenty of good food and many stories to tell. In Italy you live and eat well!

Your experience will be personalised, authentic, and upscale.
Travel with me for a journey enriched by culture, history, authentic food & wine adventures and active experiences off the beaten path!
