Federico’s class was excellent! - First, the location was out of a movie - ancient vineyards, olive groves, Tuscan farmhouse, rolling hills just 5 minutes from San Gimignano. So beautiful and authentic. Second, our chef Federico was wonderful - we loved his menu and the simple purity of all the dishes (4!) we prepared. He had appetizers ready when we arrived, so we got right to work making the ragu sauce with Chianina beef (the best!), sauce for the chicken cacciatore, lightly-breaded and fried zucchini blossoms, fresh pasta for both ravioli and tagliatelle, chocolate cake, along with a side for every course. Of course, we had generous glasses of Vernaccia and Chianti, both produced by the estate, to help us along. The most impressive part was Federico’s obvious love for Tuscany and the bounty of the region. He made it look simple but the presentation was so elegant. Thanks for teaching us so much more than just the recipes - we’ll be back some day!

Cooking Class - Took my daughter and her friend for the cooking class in June 2024. Wow!!! What a wonderful experience with Chef Beppe! We had a wonderful time, we learned a lot, and created some amazing dishes! After learning and cooking, we ate! The food we made was delicious. We also sampled two of the wines from the Guardastelle winery and they were wonderful! I highly recommend this experience!
