- Very informative and fun. We had a great time learning from Carlo and helping to prepare the dishes. The pasta was amazing and definitely some of the best we have had in Italy.
- This cooking experience with Carlo was the highlight of our trip to Italy!!! We could not recommend it enough. Carlo was so friendly and professional. Thank you Carlo for creating such a magical memory for our family.
- An Unforgettable Culinary Experience with Chef Carlo (and Nila!) 🇮🇹🍝👨🍳🐕🦺 We had the absolute pleasure of being welcomed into Chef Carlo’s home for a private cooking class, and it was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we arrived, Chef Carlo made us feel like family — warm, genuine, and incredibly passionate about his craft. The experience was more than just a cooking class; it was a journey into the heart of Italian cuisine and culture. Chef Carlo’s knowledge and love for food shone through every step, from selecting fresh ingredients to teaching us traditional techniques. It was eye-opening to see how much soul goes into every dish — something you can’t learn from a recipe book. Cooking alongside him in his kitchen was both fun and deeply inspiring. We didn’t just learn how to make delicious pastas and dessert — we learned to feel the food, to understand the rhythm and story behind each meal. And of course, a special shoutout to Nila, the sweetest little sous-chef and host, who made the entire experience even more heartwarming with her adorable presence. This was not just a class, but a memory we’ll cherish forever. Thank you, Chef Carlo (and Nila!), for sharing your home, your knowledge, and your heart with us. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic and unforgettable culinary adventure. We’ll surely be back one day…with more of our loved ones as well! Love all the way from Singapore! 🇸🇬❤️
- Carlo was great - knowledgeable, hospitable & an amazing cook!!
- We had a great cooking class with Carlo! We learned a lot about the pasta making and got some good tips for making the best pasta at home. The pasta we’ve made was very delicious en very tasteful. Thank you for your hospitality Carlo!

Where
Carlo
Cesarina from 2021Location: Florence Languages: English and Italian"I love good food and I have been cooking for a lifetime! For years, I have also been dedicated to the search for cuisine that is not only delicious but also health-conscious: low-cholesterol and low-sugar desserts, and homemade pasta made with stone-ground flours from small mills... In many cases, it is possible to cook great dishes with local ingredients, without compromising on health." However, this should not be an excuse for creating mediocre dishes: if they are not good, it's pointless for them to be healthy!
