Market tour and Vegetarian Cooking Class in Padua

Padua’s food market is a true testament of time. It’s been going for over 800 years!

The colourful and vivid stalls are always bursting of the best fresh produce and ingredients and of the popular street food. Here, you’ll find carefully arranged crates, brought from the fields of the surrounding area by dedicated producers. Local people weave through the stalls, chatting and laughing as they fill their shopping bags with wonderful ingredients.

You’ll enter into the heart of this foodie paradise with your Cesarina, and you’ll shop together for the finest food; stalls stacked with cheeses, crates of vibrant radicchio leaves and countless jars of sauces and preserves... You’ll be spoilt for choice! If you fancy a bite to eat,try the local “cicchetti”, the Veneto’s version of the Spanish tapas. Are you ready for a culinary adventure?

Enjoy the market tour, with the Cesarina learn how to select the best vegetables and ingredients of the season and immerse yourself in a private cooking class at the Cesarina's home. Learn the secrets of the most famous vegetarian dishes of local cuisine and taste the fruit of your labour accompanied by local wines.

During the cooking class the Cesarina will teach you some tricks of the trade of three authentic recipes (starter, pasta and dessert).

Have fun putting your cooking skills to the test. Each participant will have a workstation equipped with utensils and all the ingredients to make the dishes.
