Hi from Silvia!
"I love to host and take care of the table, I always try to create a mise en place with some ingredient that recalls the menu or seasonality. I prefer to cook dishes of land, typical of the Tuscan tradition, I do not try too much in desserts... but only not to eat too many!"

- Silvia was fabulous! We loved the food shopping, the tips only a true Italian would impart, her beautiful home, her lovely hospitality and of course, the food and its preparation. The experience was everything we had hoped it would be and more!
- Silvia is great. She showed me how to make brushetta, gnudi and zabione. The market tour and cooking at her home was excellent.
- Excellent event
- My husband and I spent a wonderful evening in Silvia's kitchen and had a personalized cooking class. We wanted to learn to make pasta and I had said 'no' to learning about gnocchi. Silvia asked why and said we always found gnocchi very tough. She taught us to make gnocchi that was so light, delicate, and flavorful we could hardly believe it. The pasta was also wonderful. This cooking class was the highlight of our two-week trip to Italy.
- Wonderful experience and good food. Interesting opportunity to see a genuine Italian kitchen and the mrs cook in action 😊.
