Overview

If you don't want to find yourself at a crowded table with 20 people, fighting for a rolling pin or some flour, you've come to the right place. We offer private lessons or for small groups: for us making pasta is a memory of those Sundays together with family and friends, sharing laughter and special moments.
You will learn in the intimate and welcoming atmosphere of an authentic 1900s workshop. You will receive hands-on training from a local professional chef who will guide you in creating your own fresh pasta, discovering techniques that are easy to replicate at home by transforming your kitchen into a flavor laboratory.
We will explore Tuscan culinary traditions, with stories about recipes that have stood the test of time. We will choose fresh and seasonal ingredients, for dishes rich in authentic Tuscan flavors. We have vegetarian options and ask you to notify us of any food restrictions in advance. All tools and ingredients are provided for a stress-free experience!

What's included

All materials, tools and ingredients needed for the courses will be provided by the laboratory and are included in the cost.
