What to expect

You'll arrive at Patrizia's home and move straight into the kitchen. Expect to roll up your sleeves and work through each dish with guidance—nothing is performed for you while you watch. The class flows at a comfortable pace; no prior cooking experience needed. Between courses, you'll taste local products and wines, understanding why they matter to Tuscan cooking. Once everything's ready, you'll move to the table and eat together. The whole experience takes three and a half hours, mixing active cooking time with tasting and meal time.
