The experience was everything I hoped for in an intimate cooking class. Carlotta welcomed us into her home, shared her passion, and taught us how to do things the Italian way. She went the extra mile for us, and helped me celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday, really helping to make the day special. I couldn’t recommend this enough for those who want to escape this city, cook awesome food, and spend some time swapping stories with local Florentines

  I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Carlotta! Honestly, you can stop your search now, and book this. Whatever you are looking for, this is that and so much more. My best friend and I took a trip to Italy, and as Italian-Americans, wanted to really connect to our culture and family traditions. We stayed in Florence and didn't have a car, so it was rather difficult to find an experience that took us out of the immediate city, AND provided transportation for us to get there. Carlotta and her husband picked us up a few minutes away from where we were staying, and drove us to their beautiful home in the hills of Tuscany. When we arrived, we were greeted with immediate warmth, and felt so welcome and comfortable. Carlotta is a very skilled cook, and understands how to teach you regardless of your skill level. She gave us options for our menu, asked about any dietary restrictions, and really individualized an experience for us. We spent the evening cooking in her kitchen before sitting down to share the beautiful meal we had prepared together. She is a wealth of knowledge not just about food, but about history and culture. It's hard to even articulate how special this experience was, and how delightful and incredible Carlotta is. Do yourself a favor and book this experience the first chance you get. This was one of the most memorable experiences we have ever had.

  This was an amazing experience. Carlotta and her husband picked us up in Florence and took us to their beautiful home in the hills around Florence. She taught us how to make a really amazing gnocchi and red sauce with burrata and a chicken secondi. Dessert was pana cotta and that was just perfect. I highly recommend this experience!
