Your experience

Osmiza means eight in Slovenian and indicates the days that Empress Maria Theresa of Austria had allowed farms in the province of Trieste to open their houses to sell the surplus of what they produced. Its institution dates back to the time of Charlemagne, the custom took root with the decree of Joseph II of Habsburg in 1784.Everything is home-grown, and they consume directly on the farmers' farms, wine, eggs, ham, salami, cheese, pickles, sometimes home-made sweets. You will be welcomed in rustic settings, set up with simple wooden benches and tables surrounded by green vineyards. Entering an osmiza is a unique experience, a plunge into the past, where you can taste in company and in a festive air the products of the territory.

: My thought as I rated 4 stars was that I had hoped for a bit more hands on. We did get a chance to try Giovanni’s tasks, however, briefly. Also, I had requested English and it worked out with some technology but the language barrier did play a role in the end. We did learn pasta but we’re not privy to the filling recipe or the sauce recipes. I suppose that is a technicality. All in all we are very happy that we did this experience.
: What a wonderful fun experience! Highly recommend this! Giovanni was the best teacher and host. He invites you into his home and treats you like family!
: Giovanni was a sensational host, welcomed us warmly into his home. I loved that we had to communicate across the English & Italian language. We have been travelling across Europe for 6 weeks & the spaghetti, ravioli & tiramisu he taught us to make was the best meal we have had, delivered on all promises, a must, Cheers Giovanni
: My husband and I really enjoyed our cooking class. We learned how to make pasta and tiramisu. It was amazing and Giovanni was very gracious and a good teacher .
: Giovanni and his wife welcomed us into their home and it was one of our best experiences of our trip! The food was divine with wine to pair. Unforgettable experience to say the least! Incredible!

Of his passion for cooking he is keen to emphasize that initially cooking for him was a necessity but slowly the flame of a real passion arose in him that has fueled, over the years, following various cooking courses, including prestigious ones, in around Italy. Today Giovanni opens the doors of his home to share the flavors of his city with gourmets, with the awareness of those who love the local gastronomic tradition and have the tricks of the trade.
