- We had a truly wonderful evening with Lara and her family. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed into their home, which created such a genuine and authentic Italian atmosphere. It felt less like a cooking class and more like spending time with friends and family. Lara guided us patiently through every step of the process of making pici and ravioli from scratch. What we especially appreciated was that we were involved in each stage of the preparation, which made the experience both educational and very enjoyable. It was fascinating to learn traditional techniques and small details that make homemade pasta so special. Lara’s husband, Daniele, also added a wonderful touch to the evening by sharing interesting stories about local wines and recommending beautiful places to visit in the area. His insights made the experience even richer and more personal. The food we prepared together tasted absolutely delicious. After learning how much care and passion goes into making fresh pasta, we can truly say that nothing compares to homemade dishes prepared in such a warm environment. This was not just a cooking class but a memorable cultural experience that we will remember for a long time. Thank you for such a special evening — we would love to come back again in the future.

- We had fantastic pasta evening with Lara, her nice family and Australian couple! After that evening we have courage to buy own pasta machine, when we go back to Finland! Mille grazie Lara! ❤️
- My husband and I, and a longtime friend spent a delightful evening , cooking with Lara at her beautiful home. The outstanding view of the Tuscan landscape was stunning. Truly a slice of heaven on earth. Her entire family was both charming and welcoming, making this an authentic Italian experience. Do yourself a favor, and spend an enchanting evening in Lara’s kitchen. You will not be disappointed, and have a fond memory that will stay with you for years to come. Grazie Mille Lara, and your entire family, for sharing your home, culinarily skills, and hospitality. We were all feeling grateful to have this experience.
- What a highlight of our three week honeymoon in Italy! Lara, Daniel, Sofia (and Black) were the most incredible hosts. They welcomed us to their beautiful home which feels like visiting a living painting in the Tuscan hills. We listened to good music, learned to make classic regional pasta dishes, shared in great conversation and finished with the most delish lunch. I can not recommend this experience highly enough. Thanks again for the hospitality and wonderful memories!
