Food Tour: discover the best places where to taste the finest local food & wine

Shared Experience
Your experience

    Join me as we delve into the beating heart of the city by visiting its bustling market – one of the most beautiful in Europe – a riot of aromas and colours, the perfect place to carefully select the finest fresh seasonal produce, including Livorno’s famous fresh eggs and high-quality flours, the stars of our signature dish: homemade ravioli.

    We’ll then head to a spectacular penthouse just a stone’s throw from the harbour, overlooking the Livorno lighthouse – the perfect setting for an interactive and dynamic cookery class. Here, we’ll reveal traditional secrets and techniques as we prepare the pasta dough and ravioli filling, alongside other typical recipes, making the most of the comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces.

    This experience was the highlight of our trip! Luciana and Francesco welcomed us into their home and we immediately felt like family. Not only did we learn how to make ravioli from start to finish, but we also enjoyed a delicious meal of antipasto, the ravioli we just made, tiramisu, wine, and digestifs. Luciana and Francesco were wonderful hosts and we feel so fortunate to have spent several hours with them. We will cherish this memory forever!

    I will say this experience has been the highlight of my vacation. The booking was easy. The location was only 2 blocks from where the cruise ship shuttle let us off downtown. The intimate setting of just my wife and i learning how to make homemade pasta "ravioli " which we made together was a wonderful experience. Luciana and her husband were easy to understand. They made us so welcome in their home. Besides the class, we were treated to a true Itallian eating experience. They made it like we have been friends forever. If you are thinking of this as part of your next trip, I would pit this on the top of your list. It's a must do while in Livorno!

    This was the highlight of our entire cruise! It was so easy to find the location. It was just a 2 block walk from where the cruiseship shuttle drops you off in Livorno. Luciana was a great teacher. Easy to understand her and her husband. We made ravioli! There was so much more beautiful food that we had before making the ravioli and then we also got to enjoy the ravioli we made. The homemade tiaramasu was the best I ever had. The wine and after dinner drinks, coffee were all top notch! I can't say enough about how wonderful our hosts were! The conversation flowed easily. It seemed like we were friends forever. Don't miss this experience. It was so worth it! I would attach photos, but this site doesnt seem to allow it.

    My vocation as a Naturopath is reflected in a healthy cuisine, based on artisanal and locally sourced ingredients, carefully selected from small farms. Born in Rome, I have blended the flavors of the Tuscan and Roman traditions, creating authentic, seasonal dishes rich in color and research. A special role is given to doughs, especially shortcrust pastry, which I reinterpret in both sweet and savory versions, bringing to life unique creations that are also at the heart of my cooking classes. Desserts and tarts are, for me, a true field of creative freedom: from the crust to the filling and the decorations, every detail becomes a personal expression and a source of satisfaction.
