Sylvia was wonderful. Warm and welcoming into her home. Teaching us her family recipe of gnocchi, tiramisu and explaining the best way to make real ragu. I highly recommend her and this experience in Lucca.

Silvia was wonderful! She was gracious, warm and welcoming. She was so passionate about Italian food and tradition. Her directions were clear and she allowed everyone an opportunity to participate in preparing food. By the time we sat down to eat what we had made, it felt like a family meal! Molto bene! Grazie mille, Silvia!

Silvia was incredible! We made a delicious dinner with our favorite, tiramisu! She was such a good teacher for cooking techniques and so fun to talk to about Lucca and life in general. A beautiful experience!

thankyou Silvia for sharing your passion for cooking and your Mother's recipes with us.  I loved how you shared you amazing knowledge in an easy way to understand, and guided us thru the process. It was great having hands on experience. The food we produced was delicious. I enjoyed sitting with you as we ate what we produced a in your lovely home.I hope to be able to recreate this amazing food when I get home for friends and family. Your cooking class has been a highlight of my trip. I would recommend to anyone interested in your cooking classes. Thanks so much for this amazing experience. Jo Laurenson

Silvia was wonderful. Fun to be with, very knowledgeable, and explained each step along the way. I speak decent Italian, but the rest of my group is English only. She is comfortable sliding between the two languages. Going to the market with her was fun, as was the hands-on cooking. Reccomend without reservation.

"I love to host and take care of the table, I always try to create a mise en place with some ingredient that recalls the menu or seasonality. I prefer to cook dishes of land, typical of the Tuscan tradition, I do not try too much in desserts... but only not to eat too many!"
