Your experience
I invite you to reach the terrace of my home and admire the magnificent panorama of the Crete Senesi. On clear evenings, you may even catch a glimpse of the beautiful city of Siena and recognize the silhouette of the Torre del Mangia. During this experience, you will delight in an appetizer consisting of three bruschetta, prepared with fresh produce straight from our garden, accompanied by samples of local pecorino cheese and handmade jams. We will continue with a first course of strictly handmade tagliatelle, seasoned with a delicious sauce all'aglione, typical of the Tuscan tradition. This will be followed by a taste of our gnudi, prepared with local ingredients, and we will conclude with an irresistible tiramisu. All will be accompanied by excellent local wine.

- Absolutely one of the best experiences that our family has ever had! I would absolutely book this again! Genny was amazing as was her husband and son. We learned so much and we were treated like family/royalty!
- Genny B. was the most gracious host to teach us how to make pasta in her home. We felt like part of her family learning her recipes, talking, eating, drinking, eating some more. It was absolutely magical and the best part of visiting Italy! I will never forget the experience and was proud of what we made. Genny and her family are the best teachers and ambassadors of Italy. I can’t wait to meet them again.
- Cesarina Genny was amazing! She and her family were so welcoming and kind. They really wanted us to feel comfortable and to feel at home. We made pasta by hand, using the same base for both ravioli and fettucini. We also made a phenomenal tiramisu. Genny explained each step in detail and helped us when we needed it. She kindly took over when we had difficulties — it made us smile! She shared how they make these dishes for Christmas and Easter, which inspired my wife and me to carry on this tradition in our own home. We plan to use the recipes she gave us to surprise our friends with a meal made from scratch. This experience was special, and we are so grateful for the time we spent with Genny and her family.
- The cooking demo Genny provided for us was amazing! She was gracious and I learned a lot about making pasta from scratch. She was such a wonderful hostess and teacher and her home was lovely. I would recommend the Cesarine experience with Genny to anyone! We has so much fun.
- A wonderful experience with Genny and her family. We made fresh ravioli and tagliatelle and cake in her home. I loved exchanging stories, learning the techniques, visiting the garden and connecting with local life. Such a special experience!
