Eleonora’s Cooking School

My name is Eleonora and I run a cooking school in the heart of Assisi, where I share my greatest passion every day: Umbrian cuisine. It is a welcoming place where you learn by doing, through recipes, techniques, and traditions, in a friendly and convivial atmosphere.The experiences end with a short tasting of the dishes prepared together, because the main goal of the cooking school is to pass on techniques and tips so that each guest can easily recreate the recipes at home.I live and work surrounded by the beauty of Umbria and its produce, which follows the rhythm of the seasons. In my cooking school, I like to share Umbrian culinary traditions with my guests, enhancing local flavors and using fresh ingredients grown in nearby fields.

Eleanora and Francesco were absolutely fantastic. Their hospitality and expertise with attention to detail made the experience once in a lifetime. Def going to do a wine/cheese tasting party with Francesco when he goes to the States in Nov. 2026.

Eleonora was amazing! She taught me so many techniques and little tricks to best prepare my Christmas lunch. The online cooking class was truly excellent: clear, engaging, and fun. Besides learning a lot, I really enjoyed every moment!

Eleonora was spectacular. She was very thorough in her presentation and very encouraging but not afraid to correct our mistakes. Highly recommend

Theresa - 

Eleanora was so nice and patient and she is so professional. We actually learned how to make pasta! We had a lovely time!

Iris - 

Eleanora was so fantastic. What a lovely lady. We enjoyed her lessons so much. She spent extra time with us. We enjoyed the cheese and wine tasting beforehand as well. I did so much we even purchased wine and olive oil to have sent home. Her grandson’s run the wine, cheese and olive oil store and they are absolutely adorable and knowledgeable.
