We had a wonderful time with Antonietta and Piero at their incredible home. The class was informative and hands on- and under Antonietta’s expert guidance, the food we made was delicious! Our two hosts, plus their family friend, Francesca, who translated for us, were so friendly and welcoming. Nearly everything we used was grown organically in their garden- I don’t think I’ll ever look at a tomato in the same way again! Highly recommend if you’re in the Lucca area. Grazie mille!

Everything was excellently organized, both the course and the English translation by the translator. Everything in an attractive setting and concluded with a delicious dinner. The participants in the course are often American and that was also the case in this case.

Was a lot of fun! We were received very hospitably by a beautiful Italian couple. The cooking workshop itself was interesting and fun, but eating together was also a beautiful authentic experience. The entire evening was translated by an excellent English-speaking friend of the family. Recommended.
