Fabulous Experience! - Barbara is a fabulous instructor! She shares stories, a sense of humor and cooking tips and encourages you to roll up your sleeves and try her cooking techniques yourself! A cooking class with Barbara feels like you just stepped into her home kitchen full of wonderful Italian hospitality!

One of the best ever - Our family has traveled all over the world and we love to take cooking classes in each area to really experience the local culture and cuisine. Our time with Chef Barbara was truly amazing and one of our fondest memories of Italy. We were fortunate to have only a short walk to her beautiful Michelin rated restaurant named La Filanda in Manciano. The design and architecture are stunning but I shall describe that more in a separate review of our subsequent dinner a couple of nights later. We were greeted with smiles and such a welcome atmosphere. We started promptly in the morning and we all worked diligently. Barbara and her assistant were fantastic at educating us and assisting us at every opportunity. We all really enjoyed the entire cooking experience but that was easily surpassed by the culinary arts that our taste buds were able to experience. The dining was excellent and we were all amazed at the flavors of Italy we enjoyed so much. I highly recommend this class while in this area of Italy and everyone in our group enthusiastically agrees.
