- Lara’s Easter dinner was excellent. The food, property and whole experience was exceptional. Her family was full of joy and we loved meeting them!
- We had the pleasure of being Lara’s first class of 2025. The food and hospitality offered by Lara and here entire family was beyond expectations. Can’t wait to book another class during our next trip to Tuscany.
- We had a wonderful experience with Lara, Daniel and her family. We started off with some bread and fresh olive oil- amazing the quality of the oil- it had just been pressed yesterday. The tiramisu we made was so easy but wonderful. They taught us how to make ravioli and pici. It was an unbelievable meal! The ravioli were stuffed with local porcini mushrooms and ricotta. She cooked them in a zucchini sauce that was great! The pici was cooked with a ham and salami tomato sauce - it was delicious. We had local white and red wine with the meal - a great treat! This was a great first day in Tuscany! Would highly recommend it and the next time we are in Tuscany we will get with Lara and Daniel again- it was just a special evening with wonderful hospitality in a gorgeous setting.
- Excellent! We had a lot of fun and enjoyed our experience cooking with Lara and her family. In addition to what we made together, Lara prepared a delicious meal. All local ingredients. We had a delightful time in Lara’s beautiful and warm home.
- We enjoyed a beautiful meal with in a lovely home with Lara and her family. They prepared Tiramisu, Gnudi, and porcini mushroom risotto. The porcini season was in full swing and they were picked from the woods near to Lara's home. She also prepared a beautiful charcuterie board for our aperitivo. We highly recommend spending time with Lara!
