- Oh my goodness! What can I say? I’ve never had this much fun cooking. We sang, we danced, we laughed and oh yeah, we cooked! Bina and Massimo made our evening so much fun and we felt very welcome in their kitchen. The food was creative, authentic and most importantly delicious! I do have one recommendation though if you’re going to book with Bina (and you should). Don’t eat two days before the class, you will not walk away hungry 😋
- We had an amazing time with Bina and Massimo, they are such fun people and make sure you have a good time. The food was amazing, we made pizza, tiramisu, donuts and a lot of different types of pasta. It was an unforgettable experience and I would recommend it to anyone! We went home with a full stomach and a happy feeling :)
- We had the most wonderful experience being welcomed into Bina’s home for an unforgettable cooking class. Bina creates such a lovely experience, with her husband, Massimo, by teaching many different recipes and encouraging your involvement and memory of the recipes. Expect to have fun, sing, dance, cook, learn and eat a lot of amazing food!
- L’esperienza con Bina è semplicemente fantastica! Non solo si cucina, ma si balla, si canta e ci si conosce a fondo. Si imparano tante ricette e trucchi per preparare pizza, ficattole, vari tipi di pasta e tiramisù! È impossibile finire tutto quello che si prepara! Bina e suo marito Massimo sono persone davvero straordinarie: con loro il divertimento è garantito e la scoperta della cucina toscana diventa un viaggio indimenticabile.
- Que inolvidable experiencia! Fantástico!. Conducimos 1 hora entre montañas hasta que llegamos a una pequeña casa muy acogedora en lo que parecía la cima de la montaña. Allí nos esperaban Bina y su esposo Massimo. Ellos hablando un poco inglés y nosotros un poco de italiano. pero así nos comunicamos durante 4 horas como si nos conociéramos de toda la vida. Bailamos, cantamos y por supuesto preparamos pasta. Nos ensañaron a hacer varios tipos de pasta: focaccia, tagliatele, spaghetti guitarra, raviolo (sombrero de cura), gnocchi y tiramisu. Todo absolutamente delicioso. Probamos la salsa picante de Bina y su limonchelo. Simplemente inolvidable. Cuando regresamos a Toscana iremos a visitar a nuestros nuevos amigos. Che esperienza indimenticabile! Fantastico!. Abbiamo guidato per 1 ora attraverso le montagne finché non siamo arrivati a una casetta molto accogliente su quella che sembrava la cima della montagna. Lì ci aspettavano Bina e suo marito Massimo. Loro parlano un po' di inglese e noi parliamo un po' di italiano. ma è così che abbiamo comunicato per 4 ore come se ci conoscessimo da tutta la vita. Balliamo, cantiamo e ovviamente prepariamo la pasta. Ci hanno insegnato a fare diversi tipi di pasta: focaccia, tagliatele, spaghetti alla chitarra, raviolo (cappello da prete), gnocchi e tiramisù. Tutto assolutamente delizioso. Abbiamo provato la salsa piccante di Bina e il suo limoncello. Semplicemente indimenticabile. Quando torneremo in Toscana andremo a trovare i nostri nuovi amici.
