FANTASTIC PASTA CLASS!! - Valeria and Valentina were outstanding. We began our afternoon seated in a beautiful living room where we munched on light snacks, had a drink, and got to know one another. Then they set up a folding table and brought out all of the ingredients we would be using for our meal. We began with an easy and delicious cherry ricotta tart. Then we moved on to making our own fresh pasta dough and rolled into long strands. While the pasta rested, we made a yummy bruschetta of tomato, basil, and olives. And we finished the whole thing off by learning to make a traditional cacio e pepe sauce. Valeria and Valentina were so fun and patient. They spoke flawless English. My husband who NEVER cooks, was completely engaged, and under our teachers' wonderful guidance, was able to make the whole meal and love it! We even bought all of the equipment and supplies once we returned home and have had pasta making parties with friends and family. It's such a great and social experience. Don't miss this class with Valentina and Valeria. They are THE BEST!

Memorable evening with a lovely host - Silvia created such a lovely experience with us in her charming and spacious home. Her kitchen is well-appointed and perfectly suited to demonstrating how she prepares the various recipes. She was very thorough in her explanations and had sourced beautiful, fresh produce and other local ingredients for the evening's meal. The gnocchi were pillow-soft and melted in my mouth, and the meat sauce was superb. There were only two of us attending (sisters-in-law), so the three of us had a really intimate evening and of course invited Silvia to join us in enjoying the delicious meal she'd just prepared. I highly recommend this experience for those looking to meet and learn from a local who lives right in the heart of the medieval center of Lucca.

Pasta! - A great experience; learning some ways to make better sauces than we had attempted before taking the class. Just the 2 of us working in the kitchen with a wonderful teacher

Memorable, fun and informative! - We had a great time making pici in a tomato and vegetable sauce, gnocchi in a cacio e pepe sauce and tiramisù. Our host, Barbara was very hospitable and showed us how to make delicious Tuscan dishes in her well-equipped home. She had recommendations for restaurants in the towns/cities we were visited and even sent us her recipes so we could make them at home. Our friends and family have enjoyed trying our best efforts at Tuscan cuisine! This was one of the best memories from our trip, we highly recommend this experience!

Amazing experience! - Donatella was the most wonderful and gracious host. We had so much fun and my wife was laughing the entire time. The food was wonderful and the instruction on how to make the pasta was fantastic. We highly recommend this class. It was so memorable to dine with locals and get a real feel for Florence and Italy. Can't say enough about how great this experience was for us.

Florence + Barbara = Wonderful pasta and meal - Our host, Barbara, was wonderful! Our family had the best time learning her tricks for making pasta and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal with her after cooking our pastas. We will definitely look for more Cesarine experiences in the future!

Pasta with love - This experience surpassed my expectations. The host provided detailed and caring pasta making instructions in her private kitchen. The views from her estate enhanced the experience. This is a must do for couples or families with teenage and adult children.

Disappointing! - Travelled from Riomaggiore by train. Could not get a taxi. Called to let them know. No-one answered - went to voice mail which was in Italian (and I don't speak Italian). Myself and my family tried for 1 and 1/2 hrs to get a taxi but no luck. When i contacted the provider via email for a partial or full refund (as it cost me over $1000 Australian dollars) the answer was no as I didn't call/speak to anyone on the day. Very frustrating and expensive for no experience. Advice to anyone wanting to do this activity - make sure you can get there!
