Shared Experience
Your experience
- Welcome appetizer
- Fresh pasta
- Local traditional dessert
The Saturday morning farmer's market represents the reality of our area, respects local traditions, and is worth visiting.
We will then move to the garden of my home to prepare together an appetizer, fresh pasta with flour chosen from the different types that my family uses, a seasonal sauce, and a typical local dessert that we will choose together from several recipes. We will end the experience by learning how to set my family's typical table.

- Es war wunderbar ! Wir sind so beschenkt worden mit einer wunderbaren Kochlehrerin Monika ! Haben viel gelernt und freuen uns jetzt auch schon, die Rezepte zuhause selbst auszuprobieren ! Es war einfach nur genial ! Und wir empfehlen es allen, die jetzt noch zögern ! Geht zu Monica, Ihr werdet begeistert sein ! Kochen in einer echten italienischen Atmosphäre ! Einfach klasse !
- Monica was a last minute switch for us as our original chef became sick the day before our class. We couldn’t have asked for a better teacher and guide to Italian cuisine. We took this class while on our honeymoon, and it was one of our favorite experiences during our three weeks in Italy. She and her husband were both incredibly warm and inviting, and made us feel like part of their family. We felt that we got much more than just a cooking class, but also an introduction and welcome into Italian culture. We will absolutely be returning when we come back to Italy.
- I am the travel advisor who booked Gayle and her sisters’ cooking class. I have just heard from Gayle, and she raved about the wonderful experience you provided for them. Thank you so much for all of your efforts!
- Monica and her husband welcomed us in her home and had a lovely family dinner with us. We made two fresh pastas that were delicious. Besides the pasta, they had prepared different food for us to taste. Unfortunately we did not make tiramisu but overall it was a great experience!
- Monica and her husband Paulo were superb hosts. We had a very enjoyable, entertaining and authentic Tuscan culinary experience. Monica was an excellent teacher both in describing verbally and demonstrating what we were required to do. Our engagement in choosing the produce and dishes we cooked plus trying the fruit and herbs from Monica’s garden also added to the experience. We would have no hesitation in recommending to our friends
