Eleonora was spectacular. She was very thorough in her presentation and very encouraging but not afraid to correct our mistakes. Highly recommend

Eleanora was so nice and patient and she is so professional. We actually learned how to make pasta! We had a lovely time!

Eleanora was so fantastic. What a lovely lady. We enjoyed her lessons so much. She spent extra time with us. We enjoyed the cheese and wine tasting beforehand as well. I did so much we even purchased wine and olive oil to have sent home. Her grandson’s run the wine, cheese and olive oil store and they are absolutely adorable and knowledgeable.

Eleonora was amazing so welcoming and a great teacher . It was a dream of mine to come to Italy and make authentic Italy sauce. My mother was Italy born in Sicily and this trip was in honor of her and celebrating my 70th birthday. I am starting my own Italian cook book with some of these recipes This class was everything I expected and more.

I am Eleonora, a true cooking enthusiast living in a charming farmhouse nestled in the Umbrian countryside. My greatest passion is preparing homemade pasta, using exclusively locally-sourced ingredients to ensure authentic and genuine flavors. I live surrounded by nature and its fresh produce, provided by the seasons and the surrounding area. I love sharing the Umbrian culinary tradition with my guests, highlighting local flavors through the use of raw materials cultivated in the fields near my farmhouse.
