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.

This was very fun and entertaining. We know how to make pasta but still learned a bunch of information and will use it when returning home. The meal was fantastic. The instructor was great. I highly recommend.

We had a wonderful afternoon with Giovanna. Giovanna showed us how to prepare pasta dough and make linguine and ravioli from it; it tasted excellent afterwards. The homemade tiramisu was also wonderful. Thank you for your hospitality, it was a special experience.

We had a wonderful time making fresh pasta with Giovanna. She is a fantastic teacher and a wonderful host. The class was very informative, and we learned how to make delicious fresh pasta and an amazing tiramisu. Everything was prepared with great care and kindness, and the table was beautifully set. We enjoyed a lovely lunch with wine and coffee. It was an authentic and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
