Short but absolutely complete, this is a full-immersion course in Tuscan gastronomy with our Chef Attilio Di Fabrizio. If you are in Florence for a few days or just passing through, take advantage of this opportunity: all you need do is book one day before.
In response to great demand, this year we have chosen three particular days to ensure you get the best out of your stay:
Monday, a perfect way to pass the time on the day when shops and museums are closed
Thursday and Saturday, start your holiday weekend with a lesson on Florentine cuisine.
The cooking course is held from 10.00 to 12.30 and is followed by lunch together with the Chef.
The main themes: the preparation of pastas, risottos and soups, with a particular emphasis on the Tuscan culinary tradition.
