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.

- Carlo hosted my family for a wonderful evening. He instructed us on cooking homemade pasta and tiramisu! We learned a lot about Italian cuisine throughout the evening and enjoyed every moment. I’d highly recommend Carlo for a class - great food, great host!
- We learned how to cook two types of pasta and tiramisu during the class. Carlo was very patient answering all those questions out of our curiosity. It was an interesting and unforgettable experience, especially for us since we had no experience making pasta ourselves. Making authentic handmade pasta may take more efforts than you thought :P Also had great casual talk with Carlo from cuisines to local lifestyle. Have to say the food we made together tasted very well. My wife and I would strongly recommend everyone to join Carlo's class during your Florence stay!
- Our cooking class with Carlo was terrific. Carlo is a terrific host and teacher and the food was spectacular. a real highlight of our time in Firenze
- Could not recommend this class more! We had the best time. Carlo is so knowledgeable and kind. We loved everything that we made.
- Carlo gave us an amazing cooking class experience! We made authentic homemade pasta and tiramisu for dessert paired with wine. Carlo gave us helpful cooking tips in a warm and friendly environment. The conversation and cooking & eating experience added to this special visit to Florence even better! I highly recommend cooking classes with 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!
