Your experience
You will be welcomed into the farmhouse with garden, inside one of the oldest plant nurseries si Pistoia.
The menu will celebrate the richness of traditional Romagna country dishes while having some Tuscan contaminations present in some ingredients but especially in the wines. If the weather permits you can also eat in the garden. You will enjoy piadine, stuffed cassoni, and freshly made fried pizzas with a selection of Tuscan cold cuts, pecorino cheese, and fresh cheese. You'll continue with garganelli, a homemade egg pasta shaped like penne, topped with peas, prosciutto, and shallots. Then arista pig meat with milk and sage accompanied by pan-fried tomatoes au gratin. To finish, zuppa inglese, a dessert of two-tone cream, ladyfingers and red liqueur.

- From the moment we entered Luisa’s beautiful kitchen we felt like old friends. She started with sharing stories of her family and then her love of cooking. It was so easy to just start cooking. The pastas were perfect. She unlocked for us the mystery of making delicious and traditionally shaped pasta. Then we sat down and enjoyed a amazing meal and many more stories. Luisa gave us precious memories of our time in Pistoia and the gift of pasta making that’swe will be sharing with our grandchildren when we return home. We look forward to coming back to Pistoia and having another evening with our new friend.
- Everything about the experience was first class. Luisa was very friendly and shared many of her family traditions and experiences in cooking. We learned so me neat tricks of the trade that will be used in our cooking. Definitely worth doing.
- Wat een leuke ochtend. Samen met Luisa 3 soorten pasta gemaakt. Wat het zo bijzonder maakt om bij Luisa de workshop te volgen, is dat je volledig meegenomen wordt in de familietraditie en ook nog de geschiedenis hoort van het familiebedrijf, de kwekerij. Erg interessant en boeiend. Dank je wel Luisa.
- Luisa was wonderful. The lunch she prepared for us was thoughtful and delicious. She recounted so many wonderful facts, stories and history. We will forever remember this meal, thank you.
- The cooking class with Luisa has been so much fun. She welcomed us into her home and made us feel like home as well. We made several shapes of egg pasta with the machine as well as by hand and then had a lovely meal with her sauce and the freshly made pasta. She then made us an espresso which we really enjoyed. Luisa's enthousiasm and warmth made the lesson so much fun, thank you so much Luisa! Would really recommend this class if you are in the neighbourhood of Pistoia (we drove 30 min from Lucca).

Luisa
Cesarina from 2022Location: Pistoia Languages: Italian and English"I was born in Romagna, but now after more than 35 years in Pistoia my home is Tuscany. In the green, but a few kilometers from the station and the Piazza del Duomo. I have a creative and curious soul and in the kitchen, through the dishes of the Romagna and Tuscan tradition, I express at best my spirit of welcome. I love to make homemade pasta, bake bread, cook the classic desserts of the tradition."
