"I was born in Romagna, but now after more than 35 years in Pistoia my home is Tuscany. In the green, but a few kilometers from the station and the Piazza del Duomo. I have a creative and curious soul and in the kitchen, through the dishes of the Romagna and Tuscan tradition, I express at best my spirit of welcome. I love to make homemade pasta, bake bread, cook the classic desserts of the tradition."

- Luisa made us feel at home in her place. She took the time to explain everything in detail. Also the rich history wasn’t left behind. The pasta course was easy to follow and great to do. After making the pasta, Luisa looked it with mascarpone and sausage while we enjoyed a great tasteful cold white wine. The pasta lunch was great, and next to the flavor you could taste the difference between the 3 kinds of pasta we made. Luisa is highly recommended, the place is easy to reach and the atmosphere in her home made the whole experience feel authentic. Thank you Luisa

Everything you showed us was so interesting, and we honestly can't stop thinking about it. We're definitely going to try making your pasta ourselves now, we're already looking forward to it! Thank you as well for all your recommendations, they meant a lot and we really appreciate you taking the time to share them with us. It's clear how much passion and knowledge you have, and it really made the whole experience unforgettable. Thanks again for everything, it was a truly wonderful afternoon/evening and we're so grateful we got to spend it with you! Thank you so much for such an amazing experience!

- It was so joyful, we loved every minutes.
- We had a lit of fun coocking with Louisa. She makes everybody feel at ease and lets everybody have their own style when making pasta. We left with a wish to make more and with great recipes and a lot of good stories about the region and Italy as a whole.
- We took a fantastic cooking workshop with Luisa! From the moment we walked in, we immediately felt welcome in her authentic Italian kitchen. Luisa is an incredibly friendly and hospitable woman who speaks with great passion about Italian cuisine and her family. Throughout the session, she shared fun stories and facts from the past, which made the workshop extra special. Everything was prepared to perfection, allowing us to make delicious fresh pasta ourselves in a relaxed atmosphere. It was not only educational but, above all, incredibly cozy. We had a wonderful evening and wholeheartedly recommend this cooking workshop to anyone in the area. A unique and atmospheric experience that truly completes your holiday!
