Gigliola
I love cooking traditional Tuscan dishes, with a particular preference for appetizers and first courses. My specialties include fresh pasta, gnocchi, crostini, and bruschette, all made with fresh, local ingredients. Additionally, I am very skilled in preparing game and rotisserie dishes, which enhance my cuisine with authentic and robust flavors. My passion for Tuscan cooking drives me to continuously experiment while always maintaining a strong connection to tradition.

- We had a wonderful experience! Gigliola is a super friendly host who really made us feel at home. We had a great time and learned how to make a delicious Torta Dal Nonna which we will certainly try to make at home.
- We had a wonderful cooking class with Gigliola and Sarah. We were welcomed into their beautiful home with open arms, tasty appetisers and a glass of prosecco. We were given excellent tuition and they kept all of us interested and entertained. Our 14 and 11 year old children were transfixed, and are amazingly looking forward to trying to recreate when we get home. Thank you so much for your tuition, incredibly tasty food, and most importantly, your friendship and warm welcome. A real highlight of our holiday.
- A wonderful experience! Gigliola is a special person: she teaches you how to make fresh pasta with patience, passion, and great care, but above all, she makes you feel at home. She left me with a wealth of emotions that goes far beyond a simple recipe. Five stars... only because you can't give more! Highly recommended.
- Gigliola and her daughter were lovely hosts and we not only enjoyed the amazing class, but also just spending time with them. They made us feel welcome as if we were family! The location was be easy to get to and the food was incredible. We would HIGHLY recommend!!!
- We really enjoyed our cooking class with Gigliola and her daughter. They were welcoming and made the experience fun, relaxed and very tastefull. Learning to make fresh pasta was great, and the ravioli with spinach and ricotta turned out delicious. A lovely way to spend a few hours and learn new cooking skills. Grazie!
