Hi from Carlo!

"I love good food and I have been cooking for a lifetime! For years, I have also been dedicated to the search for cuisine that is not only delicious but also health-conscious: low-cholesterol and low-sugar desserts, and homemade pasta made with stone-ground flours from small mills... In many cases, it is possible to cook great dishes with local ingredients, without compromising on health." However, this should not be an excuse for creating mediocre dishes: if they are not good, it's pointless for them to be healthy!

This was such a wonderful class. My family and I had the best time. Carlo is an excellent teacher and has a true talent for making delicious food. Such a wonderful and fun way to experience Florence and the cuisine. Carlo is fantastic. Highly recommend.

This was an awesome experience! It doesn’t get more authentic than sharing a kitchen with a Florence native. Carlo is a very friendly and kind man but he is also a good teacher. I look forward to recreating these recipes at home. Highly recommend giving this a try. If you can, try to book in the morning when the market is less busy. The market you go to is an amazing spot and you can tell it is filled with locals. I would like to go back on my own to explore it more and would recommend you do the same.

Carlo was great!!! He opened up his home to us and taught us so much about making pasta. Our families are expecting a meal when we get home! Thanks Carlo!!
