  There was some confusion about where to meet. Just wait at the door even though it doesn't look like a cooking class.

  Our cooking experience with Chef Elena was phenomenal! She picked us up in Cortona and drove us to her home a short distance away. She had the fresh ingredients sitting out when we arrived, and she walked us through the meal preparation step by step. We used her grandmother’s pasta machine, and we picked the fresh herbs from her garden. Our meal included bruschetta with fresh sausage and burrata, focaccia, hand-made pasta with tomato sauce, and tiramisu. Chef Elena picked a menu that we could duplicate at home and, while she provided directions, we actually did the preparation. All during the process, we enjoyed wine, some from her family’s vineyard. It was a wonderful, educational, and memorable experience!

  Cristina was a lovely host and a great teacher! Her home was warm and inviting with an AMAZING view. We made pasta and tiramisu. I made new friends and had the best day. Cristina is the best.

  This was probably our favorite event while in Tuscany. We were staying in Cortona, which made this even better for us, but we we would recommend it to anyone with a passion for food, fun and stunning views. We chose the lunch lesson and made our own pasta, cooked the sauce, the main course and the dessert! We ate so much great food in Italy, but there's something special about a meal you cooked yourself. Christina is amazing! She's a great chef as well as a wonderful person. We cooked in her lovely home and spent the afternoon sitting on the porch, eating the lunch we had made and enjoying each other as well as the view... and some good wine! We plan to come back and cook a dinner with Christina the next time we are back in Tuscany and would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone. No advanced cooking skills or additional supplies needed. Christina took care of everything and was a wonderful host and teacher! Thank you for making the last day of our honeymoon one of the most memorable!
