Tasting of traditional dishes

Private Experience
Your experience

    I will welcome you to my country home near Spoleto for an authentic culinary experience, deeply rooted in my family and the flavours of the Umbrian countryside. We will start with a selection of fresh and mature cheeses, local cured meats and vegetables from the garden, accompanied by extra virgin olive oil, jams and homemade preserves.

    We’ll continue with Strengozzi alla Spoletina, a fresh pasta that’s a symbol of local tradition, followed by free-range chicken alla cacciatora served with seasonal side dishes. To finish on a sweet note, we’ll enjoy Crescionda Spoletina, a traditional dessert. A journey through genuine flavours, local produce and authentic Umbrian hospitality.

    My wife and I attended an Umbrian cooking class with Claudia at her lovely home. Her charming husband Francesco was also present. It was a wonderful day in the company of two very kind and engaging people. They opened up their home and kitchen to us and treated us like family. Claudia talked us through the ingredients and technique behind making strangozzi, an archetypal Umbrian pasta. We had some cold cuts and cheese to start which we bought at a local market in the morning, and some delicious montefalco wine. It was an exceptional experience from start to finish and we would wholeheartedly recommend. Thanks Claudia and Francesco - we will be back!

    We had the most amazing experience with Claudia and Francesco. They opened their home and their love of all things Italian and food to us. We felt honored by their sharing of so many things The experience of strolling in Spoleto shopping for the ingredients was wonderful and thoughtful. We need a cafe and nothing was a a problem. The cooking experience followed by dining was amazing. Claudia made everything seem so simple - and everything was delicious. Would we come back - in a minute - will we recommend - absolutely. Thank you Claudia and Francesco - we loved every minute of it.

    The gnocchi cooking class with Claudia was absolutely wonderful. Claudia and her husband Francesco were very gracious and welcoming in their home. I had booked the class for my husband’s 74th birthday. He does not have a lot of cooking experience but has fond memories of his grandmother making gnocchi and was excited to learn. Claudia was patient, helpful and accommodating in her instruction. We prepared both the sauce and the gnocchi as well as bruschetta appetizers. The food was amazing! Her table setting was lovely and we had very relaxed conversations with her, her husband and daughter. Claudia prepared a traditional Umbrian dessert complete with candles to celebrate. Francesco took many photos to commemorate the occasion. This was truly a memorable evening. Thank you Claudia and Francesco - Grazie Mille!

    It was a very special experience. We met Claudia in the city and she showed us some places and the cathedral while shopping. Her special connection to Spoleto was immediately noticeable. At her home the atmosphere was very authentic and also very warm-hearted. She always emphasised the regional origin of the ingredients and took a lot of time for us. Again and again, her love for Umbria and Spoleto was particularly noticeable. In the end there was a local special feature as dessert. Her husband Francesco took a lot of pictures of us, which made the experience unforgettable. It was a meal with friends and not “just a cooking class”. Dear Claudia, we will be back.

    The experience that Claudia provided was exceptional. After an informative walk through Spoleto purchasing some produce, we were welcomed into her home to prepare the meal. Wonderful appetizers of different types of bruschetta, salami and sausage, and ricotta with homemade fig marmalade. Then we made fresh Strengozzi pasta with a homemade tomato sauce. Claudia and Francesco are wonderful hosts and we highly recommend this experience!

From the moment I got married, I continued the family tradition re-proposing the typical dishes that my father used to prepare for us and my guests are always happy when they are invited for lunch or dinner."
