We had fantastic pasta evening with Lara, her nice family and Australian couple! After that evening we have courage to buy own pasta machine, when we go back to Finland! Mille grazie Lara! ❤️

My husband and I, and a longtime friend spent a delightful evening , cooking with Lara at her beautiful home. The outstanding view of the Tuscan landscape was stunning. Truly a slice of heaven on earth. Her entire family was both charming and welcoming, making this an authentic Italian experience. Do yourself a favor, and spend an enchanting evening in Lara’s kitchen. You will not be disappointed, and have a fond memory that will stay with you for years to come. Grazie Mille Lara, and your entire family, for sharing your home, culinarily skills, and hospitality. We were all feeling grateful to have this experience.

What a highlight of our three week honeymoon in Italy! Lara, Daniel, Sofia (and Black) were the most incredible hosts. They welcomed us to their beautiful home which feels like visiting a living painting in the Tuscan hills. We listened to good music, learned to make classic regional pasta dishes, shared in great conversation and finished with the most delish lunch. I can not recommend this experience highly enough. Thanks again for the hospitality and wonderful memories!

Our family enjoyed a lovely evening at Lara's home. We were welcomed into her home and enjoyed cooking a delicious meal with her and her family. Wonderful experience in a beautiful setting.

We had the most amazing cooking class at Lara’s home in Tuscany! She welcomed us with such warmth, and learning how to make pizza in her kitchen was an unforgettable experience. Her whole family is incredibly kind and hospitable — they made us feel right at home. The class was fun, hands-on, and full of laughter. My kids absolutely loved it! It was one of the highlights of our trip. If you haven’t cooked at Lara’s house, you haven’t truly been to Tuscany. Grazie mille, Lara and family!
