Hi from Claudia!
"I have always loved my territory and its products. My father cultivated the land and raised animals, so in my family we have always been used to eating excellent quality products and km 0. From the moment I got married, I continued the family tradition re-proposing the typical dishes that my father used to prepare for us and my guests are always happy when they are invited for lunch or dinner."

- What an amazing day with Claudia and her husband Francesco!! My wife, 9-year-old daughter, and I adored our time with them at their home and family farm. We learned how to make homemade strengozzi pasta w/ truffles, bruschetta, tiramisu, and the best lentils I’ve ever had. (SERIOUSLY.) In fact, I’ve made the lentil recipe three times in one week since being home. Their home is filled with love, warmth, generosity, and care…and with only the freshest ingredients, most of which are grown just steps away on their family farm. Claudia walked us step by step so clearly and patiently through each recipe, and was so kind and engaging with our daughter. And the FOOD!!! And table setting!! One of the best meals we had on our trip. It included multiple courses: gorgeous figs freshly plucked from trees on the farm with fresh cheeses and cured meats, three types of bruschetta, those incredible lentils, our freshly made strengozzi with truffles, tiramisu for dessert…all accompanied by a fantastic family-made white wine. Claudia even whipped up a quick pomodoro for our daughter, who isn’t a fan of truffles (more for us! ORO! ;) Claudia and Francesco even gave us a little tour of their family farm at the end of our time together. Claudio and Francesco, we cannot thank you enough!! You made our trip incredibly special.
- What a wonderful day we got to spend with Claudia and Francesco. I learned many things about Italian food preparation and then to have lunch at their kitchen table was so perfect. Their hospitality, kindness and love for good healthy food is unsurpassed! I highly recommend this experience.
- We hebben een geweldige avond gehad bij Claudia en haar man Francesco. We voelden ons heel welkom. We hebben heerlijke lokale gerechten gemaakt. We kregen duidelijke uitleg en ook veel informatie eromheen. Na het koken stond de gezellig gedekte tafel al klaar en hadden we met elkaar een voortreffelijk diner. Tijdens de maaltijd werd er gezellig gekletst en we kregen ook nog tips voor restaurants in de buurt. Het was een hele leuke avond waar we met plezier op terugkijken!
- We had a wonderful cooking class with Claudia. She was a great instructor and we successfully made some great pastas and tiramisu! It was perfectly hands on. We really enjoyed talking to the family and eating the food we had prepared! We would highly recommend this to anyone wanting an authentic cooking experience!
- My wife (Peggy) and I took a cooking class at Claudia home which is located in one of the farm houses. The setting was beautiful as we were invited into Claudia and Francisco's home for dinner. Claudia showed us how to make the pasta with truffle and tiramisu. We had a wonderful experience making those two dishes with Claudia while Claudia's husband taking pictures for us during the entire class. Claudia and Francisco are super friendly. I highly recommend Claudia's cooking class since we had such a positive experience. We can see ourselves taking another class from her in the near future (within this year). Sam
