Hi from Flora!

When one thinks of the city of Pisa, the iconic monument, the Leaning Tower, immediately comes to mind, as well as the thousands of tourists intent on being photographed in bizarre poses at the foot of the famous monument. In the shadow of the famous tower, there are other treasures to be discovered, including the delicacies prepared by Cesarina Flora, who lives in the heart of this Tuscan city. Starting from an early age, Flora carefully followed her family’s culinary preparations and since then has always found in cooking an oasis of serenity, research, knowledge and, above all, a great passion in keeping the local traditions alive. Today she cooks for her numerous friends, creating dishes with new and renewed flavors. She chooses her ingredients with extreme care, insisting that they come from small, highly reputable local businesses. Her table setting is classic and elegant, using treasured dinnerware and hand-embroidered tablecloths. She has an eye for detail, combining colors based on the food she is serving, as well as the floral compositions and small potted plants.

What a great session. 3 dishes I'd never heard of, how to make them and the pleasure I of eating them in the company Flora and Claudio

We found Flora and Claudio’s home just steps away from the leaning tower, which made a really fun, full day. It was honor to be welcomed into their home and laugh our way through making beautiful fresh rolled pasta. We enjoyed dinner with their company and was given specific instructions on where to shop for the freshest ingredients in Pisa. Even the shop keepers we met loved Flora and her vibrance for cooking beautiful food. It was an experience that extended beyond the few hours we had together.

Flora and her husband Claudio welcomed us into their home and immediately made us feel welcome. Flora was an excellent teacher and showed us step by step how to prepare the appetizer, the main meal -we tried the Tripe, and the wonderful and unusual dessert. We participated with enthusiasm and enjoyed the flavors and experiences of every bite. Never before had we eaten these dishes and we very much enjoyed the experience. It will be a memory of our trip that will never fade away.
