Learn to make fresh pasta at a Tuscan farmhouse near Lucca, with local wine, garden ingredients, a family meal, and round-trip pickup.
“We had a delightful evening at Giacomo & Helena’s home. To start with we were treated to delicious foods and wine from the region. Helena’s pesto was the best we have ever had! She instructed us on how to make both traditional pasta and pasta with a machine. She shared great tips and personal stories. We finished with a delicious meal. It was an unforgettable experience in Lucca and would highly recommend this experience.”
Make fresh pasta, ricotta ravioli, and seasonal gelato in Lucca with local ingredients, friendly teaching, and a shared Tuscan meal.
“We did the pasta course with Ariela and had a wonderful day! You can feel her love for food, cooking and the region. We learnt so much. The course is something for everyone who wants to learn about Italian cuisine, Tuscany and attention to detail. Without a lot of frills, you learn hands-on what is important when making pasta and there was also wonderful gelato. If we were ever in the region again, we would definitely book a tour with Ariela! alla prossima :)”
Make fresh lasagna in a Lucca home kitchen, learn a family recipe, taste your dish with regional wine, and meet a welcoming Italian family.
“This was a true and unique class with wonderful chef in her home. The home, food, demonstration and company were absolutely wonderful! So accommodating, conscientious, and wonderful people to get to know. Very welcoming and learned a lot not just about lasagne and Italian cooking but also about regional culture as well!”
Cook pasta and tiramisu in a Lucca home with local Cesarine hosts. See what you make, what it costs, and if this private class is worth it.
“Save your money and book with a real cooking company directly. We spent $420 for 2 people. I highly do not recommend. The hosts were not who was displayed on Viator. They were nice girls but for the same price or less you can book with a legit company or chef. We “cooked” for 45 min for a 3 hour booking. One item is tiramisu. You make it first by mixing some eggs in a bowl. The allotted time does not allow for tiramisu to chill, so when we ate it at the end it was soupy. It just wasn’t good at all. We ate it to not seem rude.…”
Make fresh pasta in a Tuscan home, cook three local dishes, share wine, and learn family recipes in a small group near Lucca.
