Loved it! - My daughters and I very much enjoyed our cooking class with Fulvio. He was informative, funny, and charming. We made pasta with both a tomato sauce and a cannellini bean sauce, Bruschetta with the freshest tomatoes ever! And finally a thin cutlet with prosciutto, garlic, and sage, lightly fried with a dessert wine. Delicious! Highly recommended.

Excellent experience and highly recommended. - We had an excellent afternoon with Fulvio! We've learnt a lot about Tuscan food which we will definitely be using at home. Our teenage daughters loved the authentic experience and was one of their highlights of our two weeks in Italy.

10 out of 10! A great experience for our family - Our family of 5 came to this class and we had a blast! To our surprise, our teenage son really leaned into this class and enjoyed it the most out of all of us! Chef Fulvio was exceptional! He was so patient and kind with us. He also taught us a lot about Italian culture and their local history. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. We hope to be back there one day!

Fine cooking workshop in casual atmosphere - We took the advanced cooking class at Katia in August 2024. We learned to make fine Tuscan dishes and Katia is very knowledgeable and can explain the process well. The ambiance is cozy and casual. When you consider that you also have an extensive 4-course dinner including wine, the price of the workshop is justified. Definitely recommended if you want to learn more about Italian cuisine!

Please do yourself a favor and just book this cooking class right now. - Please do yourself a favor and just book this cooking class right now. This was an absolutely highlight of our trip. My husband and I have taken many cooking classes in a variety of different cities/countries and this was our favorite. Fulvio and Katia were amazing. Great hosts, so welcoming and made the class so much fun. We had a small group that allowed us to have more of a personal experience and they really took the time to explain everything and answer any questions. Such a great experience and the food was amazing!

Outstanding Tuscan experience - We wound our way through the small roads and arrived at the Villa. Our chef/teacher/host was a wonderful character out of a feature film. The class was marvelous as we made pasta and sauce and bruschetta and Saltimbucca..and had a blast doing it. He was patient with our 5 and 8 year old grandchildren and they enjoyed it as well. If you want a special cooking class in Tuscany….this fits the bill.

Fantastic cooking experience with Fulvio - After looking into a cooking class for the family we decided to go with this one. We enjoy cooking and the flexibility of an advanced class made this ideal. Fulvio was excellent - he showed us clearly each step in the preparation then let us do the cooking. It was a perfect balance of information and practical food preparation then we ate what we made together as a family.
