Is there a better way to experience the Italian summer than by cooking, eating and having fun together?
We look forward to welcoming you to our villa, nestled amongst a large garden, an olive grove and a vegetable patch, to spend a few hours enjoying flavours, the good life and good company. We’ll start by making a caprese salad, then get our hands dirty making spaghetti, served with a fragrant basil pesto. To round off on a sweet note, we’ll prepare a delicious limoncello tiramisu – a fresh and irresistible twist on the classic Italian dessert. During the preparation, we’ll use our own olive oil, aromatic herbs and ingredients picked straight from our vegetable garden. You’ll take home not only new recipes, but also the memory of a true Italian summer.

- Rossana and Alberto were wonderful hosts. We enjoyed their company that we stay longer than the 3 hours. Felt like we have been friends forever. We learned a lot and loved the hands on experience. The pesto for our pasta was delicious. The apps were yummy as well, the bruschetta with creamy pesto grilled peaches and walnuts was fantastic. The tomatoes and basil from the family garden were delicious and well as the family made olive oil. The limoncello Tiramisu was unbelievable! Their home was beautiful as well as the yard where we ate all of the food that was prepared. Rossana’s home limoncello was the beat we ever had. Our family has two new friends!! Highly recommend
- We werden hartelijk ontvangen door Rossana en haar man Alberto in perfect Engels. We apprecieerden het erg dat Rossana haar menu en de workshop vooraf met ons had afgesproken. Hierdoor heeft onze kleindochter Hailey de beste spaghetti ooit gegeten met de beste saus “ever”. De maaltijd was heerlijk en zeer persoonlijk wat we erg waardeerden. Als we nog eens in de buurt van Lucca komen zijn we uitgenodigd voor de heerlijke cappuchino van het huis. Achteraf werden de familierecepten netjes doorgestuurd. Prachtige ervaring geweest. Bedankt, Ludovicus
- We had an absolutely wonderful cooking workshop with Rosanna and her husband. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel incredibly welcome. Everything was spotlessly clean and hygienic, and Rosanna explained every step of the cooking process with great knowledge, patience, and enthusiasm. She shared many useful tips and techniques, and there was plenty of variety throughout the workshop. We learned so much while having a great time. The atmosphere was warm, relaxed, and friendly. Rosanna and her husband are such kind and welcoming people, and their lovely dog made the experience even more special. While our lasagna was baking in the oven, we enjoyed a tour of their beautiful garden filled with olive trees. It was a wonderful addition to the experience and gave us a glimpse of the beautiful surroundings. At the end of the workshop, we received all the recipes to take home, along with many extra cooking tips so we can recreate the dishes ourselves. The best part was sitting down together in the garden to enjoy everything we had prepared. The food was absolutely delicious, and sharing the meal together made the experience even more memorable. We would highly recommend this cooking class to anyone visiting the area. It is an authentic, fun, educational, and delicious experience that you shouldn’t miss. Thank you, Rosanna and your husband, for your warm hospitality and for creating such a special day. We will cherish the memories!
- We had a fantastic time at Rossana and Alberto's home. We felt very welcome, learned a lot about the art of pasta, and will always remember this experience with joy.
- Really nice people! They teached us a lot about Italian cooking and some nice facts about the country and region! The food was amazing and the vibe was really good!! I would recommend this cooking class to everybody!

Rossana
Cesarina from 2024Location: Lucca (LU) Languages: Italian and EnglishI prefer simple dishes made with just a few wholesome, seasonal ingredients, often harvested directly from my own vegetable garden and orchard. I love to enhance the authentic flavors of the land using extra virgin olive oil that we produce ourselves. My cooking is rooted in traditional Tuscan cuisine, but I also enjoy experimenting: I create original recipes that I carefully jot down in my personal recipe book, built over time with love and passion.
