How we differ from other classes:
Rather than large, crowded classes, this experience is designed for small groups, allowing for personal attention, hands on learning, and a relaxed pace guided by our chefs.
This is not just about making pasta dough. You will actively cook like an Italian, preparing fresh pasta, traditional sauces, and classic recipes together with the chefs at the table.
Forget tourist style classes. You will learn authentic pasta dishes and real cooking techniques from Italian chefs with professional restaurant backgrounds, rooted in traditions passed down from nonna to chef.
Take the flavors of Florence home with you. After the class, you will receive exclusive recipes from our cookbook straight to your inbox and enjoy our apron as a keepsake of the experience.
If you want to continue cooking at home, you can also purchase locally made pasta tools selected by our chefs, with shipping available directly to your door.
Who it's for
Perfect for couples, solo travelers, families, and small groups with a passion for food, wine, and Italian culture, whether you are a beginner or a passionate home cook.
