    I came for the pasta. Left with something deeper. As a psychologist, I spend my days listening. Today, for once, I was the one being nourished, with food, with stories, and with something that felt almost therapeutic. Francesca doesn’t just cook: she connects. Her kitchen isn’t just a place for recipes… it’s a place where people soften. And yes, the scialatielli were divine. But the real gift? Feeling completely seen, even while covered in flour.

    More than a dinner. It was a gift. We celebrated our anniversary with Francesca and left with full hearts (and stomachs!). The house is peaceful and romantic, the dishes are rooted in tradition, and her hospitality is unmatched. She made everything personal and meaningful with just the right amount of fun. A night we’ll talk about for years.

    We came for the pasta… stayed for Francesca! What a joy. Francesca turned our family cooking class into a real event. The food was incredible, the setting beautiful, and the energy? Just wow. Our kids were shouting “SI CHEF!” by the end. She made us feel like we belonged and that’s rare. Book this. You won’t regret it. – Basia & co.

    It felt like stepping onto a cooking show set… but with heart. Francesca’s home is stunning, warm, stylish, and full of character. But the real magic is her. She made us feel welcome from the first second. We laughed, we cooked, we shared stories. It wasn’t just a class, it was an experience we’ll never forget. If you want the real taste of Italy, start here.

    Together with some friends, we had a delightful dinner at Francesca's home in Civitavecchia on May 19th. From beginning to end, it was a wonderful evening. We made pizzas and, together with the pre-dinner reception, dinner and dessert, the evening was a great start to our trip to Italy, France, Spain, and Portugal. Francesca's son, Gabriel, together with his girlfriend, made us extremely welcome. It's not often you go to dinner where the chef has made not only dinner but her own olive oil and limoncello. The evening brought back many happy memories of family dinners at my in-laws, who moved from Italy in 1950 to Canada.

    Hi, I'm Francesca! Originally from Naples but now living in Rome, I welcome my guests to a villa nestled among olive and fruit trees in the countryside of Civitavecchia. "Those who cook with love nourish more than just the body" – this philosophy guides every dish I prepare. Together, we’ll share the joy of picking vegetables from the garden, while discovering stories and traditions dating back to the early 1900s, offering a unique and authentic experience.
