Hi from Cristina!

Cristina welcomes us to her home in a lemon house, surrounded by greenery, in the old village of Pian dei Giullari, near the ancient home of Galileo Galilei. Our Cesarina, with passion and dedication, takes care of the vegetable garden, respecting the biological cycles of nature and using to cook her dishes only seasonal fruit and vegetables. Since she was young she has always valued the mise en place, following her mother's advice: "you can eat with your eyes too!" Over time she has learned to know and respect the ingredients and raw materials, the real protagonists of her dishes, which she cooks with passion and imagination.

Our experience was Amazing!

Cristina and Paolo were amazing hosts, so warm and friendly. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them at their beautiful home and learning to make some delicious dishes. The views were AMAZING! We decided to walk back down the hill from their home which was a great way to burn off the meal and led to some additional site-seeing. Highly recommend this experience.

Cristina and Paolo were truly the greatest! This was one of the most wonderful experiences I’ve ever had! Not only getting to make my favorite dishes from scratch, but also using a lot of their home-grown ingredients, was incredible. My friend and I’s evening with them has been the highlight of our trip and they could not have been more kind and welcoming. Hoping to bring back my family to do this again soon!

We travelled to Florence to celebrate our 10th anniversary. Cooking at Cristinas place was one of the absolute highlights during our stay. The location is magnificient with a beautifull view over Florence. Cristinas and Paolos home is welcoming and decorated with exquisite touch. Harmony and beauty. Cristina and Paolo guided us through the cooking with ease and made us feel truly "at home". We loved the food and the company. We give our highets recommendations.

Beautiful setting to learn how to make a few classic Italian dishes. Cristina was a very warm and fun host. We were able to take a few moments during the class to enjoy the first course with a glass of wine while sitting in the sun and enjoying the stunning view. It was a very laid back and fun day, plus a great way to get the Tuscan experience right outside of Florence.
