What To Expect
Welcome to an exclusive cooking class in Florence! Learn to prepare the legendary Bistecca alla Fiorentina with a professional chef. Meet in the historic center and, if you choose the morning tour (apart from Sundays and Bank Holidays), explore the Sant’Ambrogio Market, a local gem filled with fresh ingredients, Tuscan flavors, and passionate vendors. Back in the kitchen, start with a classic Tuscan appetizer: bruschetta. Enjoy a quick aperitivo before diving into the highlight of the day: Her Majesty, the Florentine steak. This premium Chianina beef cut is grilled to perfection with just salt and extra virgin olive oil. Learn the chef’s expert techniques to achieve a tender, juicy, and flavorful result, just like a real Florentine. As the steak rests, prepare the perfect side dishes: a fresh salad and grilled seasonal vegetables. No meal is complete without dessert, so bake cantuccini, Tuscany’s famous almond cookies, and pair them with vinsanto wine. Finally, sit down and enjoy your perfectly cooked steak with a glass of red wine. Raise your glass and toast to an unforgettable experience: you're now a true MasterSteak!

5.00The course far exceeded our expectations! Alain, our cook, was awesome! After a visit to a local market, we stocked up on vegetables and a large T-bone 🥩 Steak (La Fiorentina) and went to the kitchen...

5.00Chef Gui is AMAZING! Loved him so much from our pasta lovers class, we requested him again for the master steak class. We had an absolute blast with him and Linda as we shopped and grilled. He taught us so many great tricks for cooking steak and veggies. Thank you so much for the laughs and delicious food!
A moveable feast to recreate at home

5.00What an amazing experience! There were just three of us, so we had ample opportunity to engage with each other and the cooking. Our chef was kind and instructive, teaching us not only about steak - all about controlling the heat - but about Italian yeast, biscotti, bruschetta, a flat bread, grilled vegetables, rosemary-roasted potatoes and even 5-minute mayonnaise. We feasted on our labors with decent wine. Highly, highly recommended.
