We truly enjoyed learning how to make ravioli and tiramisu in such a unique setting! We were a small group of 8 which made it intimate and provided us with great conversation.

This cooking class with Simone was so much fun! We made ricotta and cheese ravioli with fresh pasta made by us. We also made tira misu. Simone prepared tomato brushetta and cooked the raviolis then served us outside of the farmhouse. Delicious chianti available throughout. My daughter and I were part of a group of 8- nice size for a cooking class . Setting was a very old and interesting farmhouse in the very scenic Chianti countryside.

Simone was amazing. Felt like a family get together. Learned how to make so many different pastas. Will never buy store bought dry pasta again. Worst was having to leave. Wanted to spend my entire vacation there.

Fantastic experience - we loved learning how to cook ravioli and tiramisu with Simone. He was very welcoming and entertaining and the highlight was enjoying the food out in the sunlight in his courtyard. Our kids (7, 9 and 11) gave it a 10/10. Thanks Simone!

Simone is wonderful. He made the experience rich with stories of his grandmother who taught him everything about cooking. Great venue in his farmhouse's converted stable to a kitchen. Loved every minute plus chance to purchase local wines.

We had 2 great tours in the Tuscan hills and this was one. Great food and good company. Our cooking teacher was Simone and he was personable and fun. Recommend to anyone.
