Cristina

Cristina welcomes her guests in a villa surrounded by greenery with large outdoor spaces and large windows, where you can admire the garden and the centuries-old olive trees. A little corner of paradise not far from the center of the Eternal City. "Since my tender age I have always looked with admiration the love with which my grandmother, of Apulian origins, worked for hours in the kitchen. I still remember her hands and her aprons, often soiled with flour and the aroma of 'good things and genuine' that spread throughout the house and enveloped me in a pleasant feeling of well-being."

Cristina was most welcoming and informational when teaching my husband and I during our cooking class. It ended up just being the 2 of us and couldn’t have been more perfect! She explained everything patiently. Her home and environment were beautiful! We learned so much and had a blast learning three new pasta recipes!! We could not recommend this class with Cristina more. This is an experience we will talk about forever!

I had a great time! I was lucky to be alone during this course, we had a good discussion despite the language barrier and I learned a lot thanks to these lessons. Thank you again! I’m leaving with a very good memory.

Our family had a fabulous time making three kinds of pasta and then eating our delicious creations. Christina was warm, welcoming and a fantastic teacher. We are all experienced cooks but learned so much. It was an experience we will never forget!
