    My wife and I had a wonderful time with Giovanna in her home. It was really fun to help make different types of pasta and then the Tiramisu. It was even more enjoyable yet to then try your works with her own twist of flavors added. A truly fantastic meal and a very pleasant host who has travelled many sections of the globe! Would highly recommend.

    We had a lovely experience with Giovanna. We made delicious pasta and it was very authentic Italian experience (+ beautiful paintings in the house). In the end we got delicious homemade Limocello. Surely recommended! :)

    Giovanna welcomed us into our home, kindly incorporated our children into the cooking lesson, and served us a lovely meal of the homemade pasta and tiramisu that we created. We really enjoyed our time and highly recommend this cooking class!! Even our picky eater ate a lot of new food and was writing down instructions so that she can recreate the recipes at home!

    Cesarina from 2018Location: Trieste    Languages: Italian, English, French
    The city of Trieste is well known for its history, its port, the Bora wind, its historical cafes filled with the scent of roasted coffee beans and a gastronomic melting pot that must be discovered and rediscovered...  We can explore and experience classic Mitteleuropean Trieste cuisine at the home of our Cesarina, Giovanna.  Giovanna loves simple traditional cooking made with fresh ingredients and seasonal fruits and vegetables. She seasons her dishes using excellent olive oil, aromatic herbs and spices, with small forays into the kitchens of the world. In Giovanna’s kitchen, you will discover a pantry laden with sauces, preserves, pasta, spirits and sweets, all strictly homemade.
