Immersed in nature, in an ancient monastery, we will prepare together all the steps needed to make a good lasagna with a good ragout preparation and béchamel sauce. Next we will make one of the best-known and oldest recipes in Italian cuisine: tiramisu, a spoon dessert consisting of layers of ladyfinger cookies soaked in coffee and filled with a mascarpone-based cream.

- My daughter and I loved making homemade pasta with Antonella. We made tagliatelle with ragu using her fresh herbs from her garden. Since I had made pasta previously, Antonella decided that we would also make ravioli with burrata, lemon zest, parmigiano and thyme. We then proceeded to make tiramisu. She totally changed my opinion about tiramisu - it was delicious!! We enjoyed the meal with fresh oil olive and wine. Antonella and her husband, Cosimo, were delightful. If going to Florence, you should definitely make the visit to their beautiful home and experience cooking with her.
- What an amazing time we had with Antonella & her husband. They are such welcoming delightful people. We cooked and ate together and the time we spent together was so memorable. The Lasagna & Tiramisu were the BEST. We will be back to cook with them again. Fabulous food and such kind people to cook with. What more could we ask for. Thank you Antonella for all the memories. Best part of our trip. Dave & Debbie
- My fiancee and I had an amazing time learning to cook yummy Italian dishes with Antonella in her lovely home! She guided us through each step to make pasta with white meat sauce, bruschetta, and tiramisu – all using fresh ingredients. After cooking we enjoyed the meal outside with some wine and gorgeous views! Antonella is an amazing teacher and we had a great time talking with her. She made us feel right at home, and we'll miss her! This experience was a highlight of our trip and we'd definitely do it again.
- Incredible, to say the very least my friends. Antonella led us on a magical tour of making our own homemade pasta (2 types) and marvelous Tiramiso. In a beautiful country kitchen she gently instructed us as we made the dough and prepared the desert filling. It was all hands on for Connie and I. Don't fret, she is so kind and generous. There are no mistakes in her kitchen it's all in fun and feast. She also made bruschetta and focaccia all with fresh ingredients many pulled directly from her garden, 'a la fois'. As all the ingredients began to emerge together we moved to a charming outside table covered with views of the raw country side. Some wine and we began our gourmet feast. We were very fortunate to enjoy the meal with both Antonella and her husband both wonderful hosts. We shared stories and laughed heartly. But in the end we teared up as we didn't want the evening to end. Remarkable, a must do experience. Many thanks Chef Antonella!
- Move over Uffizi, Florence has a new top attraction, and her name is Antonella! My 2 children, my wife and I travelled to Florence to visit our daughter who was studying abroad there for the semester. After a week of touring and sightseeing, we did a private cooking class with Antonella. Her hospitality, professionalism, kindness and skill set were beyond expectation! We made a 4 course meal, and all participated fully in the prep. The menu was basic-focaccia and bruschetta, home made pasta (we each made a batch from scratch) with a white meat ragu, and tiramisu. Most ingredients came from her garden. Everything was fresh and DELICIOUS. Antonella served a complimentary wine with each course. All 5 of us decided that our time with Antonella was a highlight of the trip. We would all do this again in a heartbeat! This class would be suitable for younger kids as well.

Where
Antonella
Cesarina from 2018Location: Florence Languages: Italian and EnglishAntonella is a Florentine born and bred who (professionally and for fun) loves cooking, using only seasonal ingredients which she usually buys from local farmers. Antonella loves traditional, ethnic and fusion cuisines; she likes sharing experiences and getting to know new people whom she hosts in a stunning location, on the Florentine hills. Here, only a couple miles from the historic center of Florence, in the tranquility of the Tuscan hills, this Cesarina welcomes us. Her house is an ex-monastery from 1200 a.c. which throughout the years was turned into a barn, then a painter’s studio, and now an artist’s home, where we can savor the flavors of Tuscan cuisine.
