Food & Wine Masterclass in Florence

Meet your dedicated chef and follow him on a wondrous 'Food Quest' through the charming streets of the historic Florence city center.

Talented and entertaining, he will lead you to the most picturesque traditional grocery shops, the ancient Florentine bottegas where the local gourmands and chefs do their shopping! Browse through the shops, losing yourself in the delectable aromas and sensational flavors.

Taste scrumptious specialties, enjoy the exclusive guidance offered by your professional chef, and choose the ingredients to use for your cooking class. With groceries in hand, you will take a short walk to our cooking class facility, a delightful location in the city center.

Follow your chef's skilled know-how and learn how to concoct the most exquisite traditional dishes: your menu will generally include home-made hand-rolled pasta, a tasty pasta sauce, a traditional main dish such as Eggplant Parmigiana and a typical dessert, too, like almond Tuscan cantuccini (typical Tuscan dry biscuits) to dip into sweet Vinsanto wine.

Master the art of kneading dough into fragrant homemade pasta, or roll out perfect potato Gnocchi, and get the hang of using a pestle to crush fresh basil and pine nuts into creamy flavorful extra-virgin olive oil Pesto! Measure, mince, mix and stir (and taste, of course, to get the seasonings right!), and finally sit down with a glass of excellent Tuscan wine to relish the best Tuscan meal ever: the one you made yourself, in the heart of historic Florence.
