THE COOKING SCHOOL IN FLORENCE

Learn about Italian Cuisine in Florence: your private cooking lessons will be in a modern Cooking School, walking distance from the historic centre.

The chef, who is also a cookbook author, was formerly the owner of a well know restaurant in a seaside resort in Tuscany, then she taught at the Professional Institute in Florence, then she opened her own cooking school in Florence. So, you will learn from an Italian Master Chef and Cooking School Instructor with 25 years experience in the authentic Italian cuisine of Tuscany! As the chef is also a great teacher, will deeply involve you in putting your hands on the food and creating your own dishes.

These are more than “standard” cooking lessons where you prepare a typical three courses Tuscan Menu, of course you will learn all about Tuscan cuisine, but if you want you can choose among hundreds recipes the dishes you will learn (pasta, fish, meat, vegetables, desserts). As soon as you’ll book your cooking program you’ll receive the list of the recipes, you’ll be in touch with the chef who will be happy to help you choosing the dishes you will prepare. You can put together a truly tailored cooking program!
