Welcome to the heart of Perugia, in the charming Corso Cavour, in the undergrounds of Palazzo Baldeschi Oddi, where I created my cooking school. I will guide you in preparing Umbrian dishes and traditional Italian recipes: torta al testo with cured meats and cheeses, lemon ravioli with cherry tomato and basil sauce, and the classic tiramisu.
Amid stoves, aromas, and stories of Etruscan Perugia, we will uncover the secrets of these dishes, learn authentic techniques, and transform simple ingredients into unique culinary experiences, following the seasonality and philosophy of traditional recipes.

- My family had a magical time at Laura's cooking class, and we adored the unique stunning locale, fun and helpful lessons, delicious food we created together, and the warm time sharing our meal with Laura and her partner. Truly the highlight of our Christmas holiday in Perugia. Thank you so much Laura for making this such a memorable day for our family! Grazie Mille!
- Highly recommended. Our guide was great, knowledgeable, and very understanding in guiding us through our cooking lesson. The day entailed picking things up at the market, bringing them back to their home, blending the flours and making the pasta, preparing the tiramisu, and finally sitting down to a glorious lunch co-prepared by Laura and her husband. They shared their home and food with us and we had a memorable experience. Grazie!
- Laura and her husband Luca were so warm, and welcoming I had a wonderful time. We made spaghetti using the pasta machine, then on a mandolin and ravioli with Laura's grandmother’s traditional roller. We also made Tiramisu in dainty china cups (a family heirloom). We had a fabulous lunch of the pasta we made, roast pork, vegetables and our tiramisu and wine with liqueur and coffee. It was such a memorable experience! Thank you Laura I wish you and your lovely family and friends the very best.
- Laura and her husband were very friendly and welcoming. We made pasta and tiramisu. She explained tehe differences in dough. Too bad she only gets a small amount paid for her work, most of the payment goes to the network.
- We had a fantastic evening with Laura and her husband Luca. They are both great cooks. It was wonderful to be invited into their cosy home. They showed us Italian cuisine, taught us how to make spaghetti, ravioli, tortellini and tiramisu while explaining Italian history and traditions. Definitely highly recommended and a highlight of our holiday!

Laura’s Cooking School
Cesarina from 2020Location: Perugia (PG) Languages: English, French, ItalianWelcome to the heart of Perugia, in the charming Corso Cavour, known by locals as Borgo Bello. In the undergrounds of Palazzo Baldeschi Oddi, dating back to 1500, I have created my cooking school—a place where you can discover the secrets of traditional Umbrian recipes and hear anecdotes and historical curiosities about our city and Etruscan Perugia. In my classes, I will guide you in preparing typical Umbrian menus, respecting the seasonality of ingredients, and I will also introduce recipes inspired by the famous book by Pellegrino Artusi, “Science in the Kitchen and the Art of Eating Well”. Come cook with me: amid stoves, aromas, and the stories of a millenary city, we will transform simple ingredients into dishes full of tradition and flavor.
