Giovanna

The city of Trieste is well known for its history, its port, the Bora wind, its historical cafes filled with the scent of roasted coffee beans and a gastronomic melting pot that must be discovered and rediscovered... We can explore and experience classic Mitteleuropean Trieste cuisine at the home of our Cesarina, Giovanna. Giovanna loves simple traditional cooking made with fresh ingredients and seasonal fruits and vegetables. She seasons her dishes using excellent olive oil, aromatic herbs and spices, with small forays into the kitchens of the world. In Giovanna’s kitchen, you will discover a pantry laden with sauces, preserves, pasta, spirits and sweets, all strictly homemade.

The most amazing experience! It was such a pleasure to learn from a master, from a warm welcome to a delicious dinner accompanied by wine and homemade liqueurs, this is easily a highlight of our trip. Learning to make pasta and tiramisu (with cherries for an amazing twist on a classic) will be a memory that last forever. Thank you endlessly Giovanna !

Wow! Homemade pasta, sea bass and asparagus. Fresh made tiramisu but with fruit not coffee. A great spring meal. Giovanna was great with a tour ofa typical shopping excursion. Absolutely recommend!!

We experienced a wonderful traditional Italian cooking class today. Visited several markets in the morning before spending an hour preparing homemade pasta with see bass and asparagus. And then strawberry tiramisu. All delicious!

Giovanna was very sweet and knowledgeable. We really enjoyed our time. The different pasta and ravioli was amazing! She even served a delicious sorbet for dessert. Would really recommend!
