market visit topped off with a 4-course lunch.

beautiful Tuscan farmhouse in the countryside. On arrival be prepared to roll up your sleeves,
you will start creating a complete menu, from appetizer to dessert.

family. The cooking lesson is suitable for beginners and for those who can already cook.

complemented with Chianti wine. Buon appetito!
