Hi from Francesca!

Hi, I'm Francesca! Originally from Naples but now living in Rome, I welcome my guests to a villa nestled among olive and fruit trees in the countryside of Civitavecchia. "Those who cook with love nourish more than just the body" – this philosophy guides every dish I prepare. Together, we’ll share the joy of picking vegetables from the garden, while discovering stories and traditions dating back to the early 1900s, offering a unique and authentic experience.

We had a great time with Francesca! We were super well welcomed to their place, the cooking class was fun, instructive and probably one of the best I've ever had. Will happily come back on a future opportunity

Francesca was wonderfully friendly and her translator, Greta and her son Gabrielle were equally able to keep us engaged. Her individual pizzas were very good. The deep fried dough was crisp and tender at the same time. I would highly recommend this dinner.

Un’esperienza autentica, fatta di gesti semplici e grande attenzione. Francesca ci ha accompagnati con passione e competenza, lasciando spazio all’ascolto e alla scoperta. Un momento raro, che resta nel nostro cuore a lungo. Torneremo!

We had a truly wonderful experience, full of authentic flavors, thoughtful care, and genuine warmth. The all things was delicious, prepared with passion and precision, but it was the human connection that made it unforgettable. We felt sincerely welcomed, in a way that’s rare and deeply meaningful. Thank you, truly.

From the moment we arrived at Francesca’s home, we were in love. The garden, the olive trees, the flowers, the peace… I turned to Kevin and said, “Get me a bottle of wine, I’m staying here!” Everything about the experience was wonderful: the food, the atmosphere, the way Francesca welcomed us like old friends. You could feel the love she puts into everything she does. We had an amazing time cooking, eating, laughing, and just being in the moment. We left feeling full, happy, and deeply grateful. Thank you, Francesca, for sharing your home and your heart with us. We’ll remember this day forever.
