- Tiramisù
The Sant'Ambrogio market is the oldest food market in Florence and the one where locals continue to shop.
It is an authentic and interesting market where King Charles spent an entire morning when he was still a prince. Filled with local vegetables, meat and fish, it is a great place to start our class by buying some fresh ingredients and exploring the most interesting stalls.
After the market, we will walk to my house and start our cooking class. We will prepare, depending on the season, fried flowers or a bruschetta with seasonal ingredients, homemade ravioli and a dessert.

- Phenomenal class with Carlo. Great opportunity to see the local market to see all the ingredients and then bring everything to life in Carlo’s kitchen. Carlo was very patient and an excellent teacher. We know we can replicate the amazing meal we made for ourselves. I highly recommend a cooking class with Carlo!
- We loved our experience cooking with Carlo! We plan on using his tips and recipes for years to come!
- Carlo was a fantastic host. Our goal in taking his class was to experience the real Italy, to get a sense of what it would be like to live there and enjoy delicious, home cooked meals. Carlo delivered on all fronts. His pasta is truly outstanding, and conversation is equally as enjoyable. We really appreciated how at home he made us feel, and how precise he was about his cooking. We are experienced home cooks and still learned so much. Thank you again, Carlo, for a wonderful evening of good wine, good food, and good conversation.
- We had an amazing time cooking with Carlo. It was great to experience an authentic meal in his beautiful home. He taught us how to make the best tiramisu we’ve ever had. Carlo was so knowledgeable and you can tell puts a lot of love into his cooking. Book the class, it will be a memory we will never forget. Thank you Carlo!

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!
