Shared Experience
Your experience

    Let’s explore the heart of Lucca together through its authentic flavors!

    We'll stroll through the charming local shops of the historic center – from colorful fruit and vegetable stands to traditional butcheries and grocery stores – selecting fresh ingredients like fragrant tomatoes, zucchini flowers ready for frying, guanciale for the perfect carbonara, and sweet, juicy strawberries.

    But the experience doesn’t end there! After our food tour, we’ll head to a Cesarina's home for a special cooking demonstration. You’ll watch how fresh tagliatelle are made by hand, following traditional Italian techniques.

    A perfect mix of local life, great food, and authentic tradition – I can't wait to share it with you!

    Silvia was fabulous! We loved the food shopping, the tips only a true Italian would impart, her beautiful home, her lovely hospitality and of course, the food and its preparation. The experience was everything we had hoped it would be and more!

    My husband and I spent a wonderful evening in Silvia's kitchen and had a personalized cooking class. We wanted to learn to make pasta and I had said 'no' to learning about gnocchi. Silvia asked why and said we always found gnocchi very tough. She taught us to make gnocchi that was so light, delicate, and flavorful we could hardly believe it. The pasta was also wonderful. This cooking class was the highlight of our two-week trip to Italy.

    Wonderful experience and good food. Interesting opportunity to see a genuine Italian kitchen and the mrs cook in action 😊.

    This cooking experience was top notch. Silvia shared her home and kitchen with us, making tiramisu and two pasta dishes. There were only 5 of us in the class so it was quite intimate and memorable. We made our pasta and dessert and consumed it with a choice of local wines. Thank you Silvia

    "I love to host and take care of the table, I always try to create a mise en place with some ingredient that recalls the menu or seasonality. I prefer to cook dishes of land, typical of the Tuscan tradition, I do not try too much in desserts... but only not to eat too many!"
