Program, details and prices
Who are the chefs?
Our chefs are familiar with the traditional dishes prepared in Tuscan families. They would be happy to pass on these recipes with useful tips to you.
What dishes are cooked?
At lunchtime and in the evening you will prepare two starters and two main courses (“Primo” and “Secondo”), as well as side dishes and a dessert. It goes without saying that a good meal also includes a fine wine and every course is rounded off with a regional red or white wine.
When and in what time frame does the course take place?
From 10:00 a.m. or 15:00 p.m. in the afternoon. The courses last between two and three hours, depending on your personal wishes. The entire cooking group then sits together at the table and enjoys the prepared delicacies in a convivial atmosphere.
Where does the course take place?
The communal cooking experience takes place in a typical Tuscan country house kitchen in the Valdera area (e.g. Terricciola, Peccioli, Palaia or Lajatico) in the province of Pisa.
The exact location will be announced in good time before the appointment.
In which language are the courses held?
An assistant (who speaks German, Spanish, French, Italian or Russian upon request) will be at your side during the cooking courses; he will explain the individual cooking steps to you or translate the information and instructions from the cook. He will also be happy to answer your questions.
