4-course Italian menu with cooking demo
Private Experience
Your experience
- Cabbage rolls or vine leaves
- Barley or Risotto with radicchio ,pumpkin,or mushrooms
- Gateau of spinach or escarole
- Seasonal sorbetto or chestnut cream
The variety of fresh vegetables I use in cooking come from suppliers with organic gardens. I cook them simply with Istrian extra-virgin olive oil and aromatic herbs, preferably with quick and healthy cooking methods. The rolls have a reference to Greek and Slavic cuisine, both well-present in the Trieste tradition. The orzotto is a Friulian recipe, while the gateau recipe is my own reworking of Southern Italian recipes, without the use of thickeners and cream, making it lighter. The dishes will be served in an elegant setting, with a classic mise en place, and in an environment where antique furniture and precious paintings make the experience of this dinner/lunch pleasant and appealing.

- Fantastic experience - will definitely make my own pasta and Tiramisu when back in UK. Giovanni was welcoming and we had a wonderful lunch at the end of the experience. Fully recommend
- Giovanna was such a good host. We loved our time with her, the way she showed us how to make the pasta, and was patient as we took the time to try it ourselves! It was an experience we will never forget. She was such a gracious host, making sure we had everything we need. The food was delicious, especially the sauces she prepared ahead of time. You will love this experience if you book it!
