Your experience
Pisa pasta with three seasonal condiments and a glass of wine.
Pisa is famous for the richness of its countryside, forests, and sea. From these places come diverse and highly refined products: mushrooms, vegetables, fruits, fish, meats, cold cuts, cheeses, all rooted on a solid tradition of rich and varied home cooking. With a plate of pasta, fresh or dry, one can indulge in sauces, condiments, depending on the season: winter with a rich variety of meats and cheeses, in spring with vegetables, in summer with fish and vegetables, primarily tomatoes, in autumn with mushrooms and cured meats in endless variations and tastes. Wine in Tuscany, there is no shortage and we will pair it wisely with the proposed pasta dishes. At my home, an ancient Pisan residence next to the Leaning Tower.

- Lovely cooking and dining experience.
- We found Flora and Claudio’s home just steps away from the leaning tower, which made a really fun, full day. It was honor to be welcomed into their home and laugh our way through making beautiful fresh rolled pasta. We enjoyed dinner with their company and was given specific instructions on where to shop for the freshest ingredients in Pisa. Even the shop keepers we met loved Flora and her vibrance for cooking beautiful food. It was an experience that extended beyond the few hours we had together.
- Ho avuto il piacere di vivere un'esperienza culinaria insieme alla Cesarina Flora, letteralmente a due passi dalla torre di Pisa. Flora è stata fantastica, mi ha accolto a casa sua e mi ha fatto sentire subito a mio agio, trasmettendomi un senso di accoglienza e calore inimmaginabile. Mi ha raccontato la sua storie, le sue esperienze, i suoi viaggi e mi sono fatto trasportare dai suoi racconti. Raccomando assolutamente di vivere un'esperienza da lei, non ve ne pentirete! Non vedo l'ora di tornare. Un abbraccio grande!
- Thank you so much for welcoming us into your home. We were both deeply touched by you, your charming husband and his amazing Brother. Flora, you are special and we will never forget your kindness towards us. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and your family. Be safe Regards, Steve and Melody

Cesarina from 2018Location: Pisa Languages: Italian and EnglishWhen one thinks of the city of Pisa, the iconic monument, the Leaning Tower, immediately comes to mind, as well as the thousands of tourists intent on being photographed in bizarre poses at the foot of the famous monument. In the shadow of the famous tower, there are other treasures to be discovered, including the delicacies prepared by Cesarina Flora, who lives in the heart of this Tuscan city.
Starting from an early age, Flora carefully followed her family’s culinary preparations and since then has always found in cooking an oasis of serenity, research, knowledge and, above all, a great passion in keeping the local traditions alive. Today she cooks for her numerous friends, creating dishes with new and renewed flavors. She chooses her ingredients with extreme care, insisting that they come from small, highly reputable local businesses.
Her table setting is classic and elegant, using treasured dinnerware and hand-embroidered tablecloths. She has an eye for detail, combining colors based on the food she is serving, as well as the floral compositions and small potted plants.
