Shared Experience
Your experience
- Tagliatelle homemade
- Fresh stuffed egg pasta
- Tiramisù
You can't possibly leave Italy without trying at least one pasta dish... so I will teach you how to make two! We'll start with an authentic Italian Aperitivo with prosecco and appetizers, then we will learn how to make both homemade 'sfoglia' (fresh pasta) and two pasta shapes from scratch. As icing on the cake, we will discover the secrets of the famous Italian dessert: the Tiramisù! After this hands-on cooking class, you will enjoy what you have prepared for lunch or dinner with local wines and share your passion for Italian cuisine by making new friends. There is no better way to truly experience Italian culture than by participating in a cooking workshop in the home of a local chef!

- My husband was in disbelief that we would be in Italy and especially Florence without having booked a Cooking Lesson! I hesitated to since he doesn't cook and thought he'd be bored on our planned Italy trip for our anniversary celebration. Nonsense, he said. You really like cooking, and it will be fun to do together. So, off I went to find a cooking school - but, I didn't think he would be interested in a large group instruction in a formal school. Then I came across Cesarine! And, boy, did I read review after review about this wonderful program bringing students into the real homes and learning time-tested traditions from gracious home chefs passionate about sharing their love of their culture and food. What we didn't know and were overwhelmed by was the abundant personality and patient instruction by Cecilia. We loved every minute in her presence in her amazingly comfortable home and kitchen. She made us feel so welcome and was so patient in her instructions, never rushing or talking over us. It was such a lovely way to see Florence and share the traditions and love of creating delicious food, which we will share and continue in our home and family. The views were amazing from her home and we enjoyed our walk from the center of the city where our hotel was (about 35 minutes). It was perfect and truly memorable, and most assuredly a special highlight of our Italy trip! Thank you for this amazing program, and special thanks to Cecilia to share her love and recipes with us!
- While we had high expectations and excitement for this event, the experience Cecilia provided far exceeded those expectations. First, she’s warm and inviting to her home, but her passion and enthusiasm in sharing her family recipes and techniques made us feel like life-long friends. Thank you Cecilia for embracing us and your patient guidance. We couldn’t have asked for more.
- Cecilia breaths passion for Italian food; I really enjoyed this workshop and I have learned lot's of things about Italian food (brusschetta, fresh pasta pomodoro and tiramisu). Thanks Cecilia!
- My friends and I had the best time cooking with Cecilia! We learned many things about making pasta and tiramisu. Cecilia was a wonderful host, teacher and chef! I highly recommended this lovely experience!
- Amazing food! Cecelia was a most delightful hostess. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her in her lovely home.

Cesarina from 2018Location: Florence Languages: Italian and EnglishAt the top end of a road just outside the historic center of Florence, across from the park of the Stibbert Museum, our Cesarina opens the doors to her home from with a splendid view of the city.
“Cooking amuses me and always puts me in a good mood. I’m constantly on the lookout for the perfect recipe, and when I find it I guard it as though it was a treasure chest!”. Cecilia’s is a simple, but unquestionably tasty cuisine: “I like inviting friends home, without any formalities, offering them the best I can”.
