Cooking with Cecilia was an absolute pleasure! Our meal was one of our most delicious in Florence, not because we made it, but because of the wonderful recipes Cecilia shared with us! It was a most enjoyable experience! I highly recommend it!

We enjoyed a really amazing evening with cesarina Cecilia. Great local dishes and a ‘wow’ tiramisu.

Cecilia was absolutely wonderful! We had an amazing time with her in her home. She was very kind and got to laugh a lot. We really enjoyed this experience and would love to recommend her to others. We will always remember this experience.

We booked this because we read all about it and loved how authentic and different it sounded. It was even better than expected. We went on our honeymoon and we didn’t want to leave without learning to cook and make pasta! We showed up and got a beautiful tour of her home, learned to make all types of pasta and even tiramisu. She was funny, and so kind. Taught us some Italian and spoke to us in amazing English as well. Showed us some techniques and tricks and even decorated and set the dinner room so lovely for us. We had so much fun then got to sit down and enjoy some wine, food and dessert we all just made together. After 2 weeks in Italy-this was our top 3 favorite experiences. You want authentic and an amazing cook-book Cecilia!!

Cecilia was a wonderful host! She made us feel right at home and quickly shared with us her special recipes which were so tasty and fun to make. The walking tour of the ingredients was informative and I learned alot when Cecilia described the ingredients and how you can seek out fresh ingredients. I would definitely recommend Cecilia to anyone who has a passion for cooking in Italy!

Cecilia was AWESOME! She made us feel like her friends coming over for lunch. As cooks who are not novices, we learned many new techniques that we will bring home with us. AND, she picked up our reservation when our first Cesarine was canceled unexpectedly the night before. So greatful! Cecilia, after we left, we realized, we forgot to leave you a tip! We are mortified! We have put a little something for you in the mail :)

What a fantastic experience! Seeing the market and getting fresh ingredients, taking them ‘home,’ learning to prepare a meal, and finally eating! All of this while being entertained in a beautiful home by a friendly and experienced chef? A resounding success!

Cecilia was very knowledgeable.

Cecilia is very sweet and welcoming. My husband and I had a wonderful experience, Cecilia is a great teacher. We are very excited to try making pasta and tiramisu at home. Thank you for everything!

Oh my goodness. This far surpassed the expectations we had. It was my 19 year old son, my husband and I. Cecilia was exactly where she said to meet. She was witty, and had an ease with the locals at the market that was apparent. She drove us in her car to her house, where we fixed several different regional dishes. She was patient, and made cooking fun for all of us. It was just a magical day, and I would highly recommend to anyone to do this tour to enhance your trip to Florence.
