- Genny and her husband were so warm and friendly that it genuinely felt like we were being hosted by an Italian family, which was exactly the experience we were hoping for. It was just my partner and me that day, so it ended up feeling like a private cooking class. Genny showed us how to make tiramisu and walked us through the different kinds of ragù, explaining how and why each one is made the way it is. As much as we loved the cooking, the conversation over lunch afterwards was just as special. Sitting at the table talking with Genny and her husband is the part we’ll remember most. Thank you both for having us. We’d recommend this to anyone who wants a real taste of Tuscan home cooking and hospitality.
- Our cooking class with Genny was truly enjoyable. The family gave us a warm welcome in a functional and refined environment, where modern style harmoniously meets Tuscan tradition. Genny imparts ancient and valuable skills with naturalness and contagious enthusiasm. We returned home eager to immediately try to replicate what we learned to cook, especially the unparalleled tiramisu.
- Absolutely one of the best experiences that our family has ever had! I would absolutely book this again! Genny was amazing as was her husband and son. We learned so much and we were treated like family/royalty!
- Our cooking class with Genny was one of the highlights of our trip! This was an authentic (and delicious) way to learn how to cook regional dishes— but also a truly enjoyable way to spend an evening. We had a blast visiting with Genny’s family and talking with the other couple in our class. Would 100% recommend this to anyone staying in the area!!!
- Genny B. was the most gracious host to teach us how to make pasta in her home. We felt like part of her family learning her recipes, talking, eating, drinking, eating some more. It was absolutely magical and the best part of visiting Italy! I will never forget the experience and was proud of what we made. Genny and her family are the best teachers and ambassadors of Italy. I can’t wait to meet them again.
