A perfect day of home cooking in Lucca - Wow! This was our favorite experience of our whole trip, which means alot. Lunia and family were such gracious hosts. We had so much fun visiting their beautiful home, learning how to make delicious food, and enjoying their company! I have experienced several cooking classes all over the world and this was by far my favorite. The kindness of Lunia and her whole family truly made us feel welcome and the food was amazing. We started by shopping in Lucca at local shops for the freshest ingredients, enjoyed a gorgeous car ride through the countryside, and learned how to make bruschetta, ravioli, and tiramisu, all of which were the best we had ever tasted. We learned so much about the local food and culture and had the best time!

Wonderful! - Silvia was a delight. She arrived with dozens of beautiful roses to celebrate my birthday, she took us to several markets to pick out our ingredients, then took us to her fabulous home! She taught us how to make 2 dishes, very hands on, as much or as little as you like, and the food was delicious! She had a wonderful sense of humor, was warm and very inviting! I recommend this tour 100%, there was 5 of us and we all enjoyed it so very much!

Panzanella and gnudi and Silvia - We loved our market tour and cooking class with Silvia. We learned where to shop and eat in Lucca, ideas for day trips, and made great food! Silvia opened her charming apartment to us, and her warmth made us feel like friends.

Highlight of our stay in Lucca! - Everything was perfect! A highlight of our stay in Lucca! Silvia our hostess and chef took us shopping for ingredients at a wonderful local market. She was charming, friendly, thoughtful, professional and patient. In her well-equipped kitchen we learned traditional hands-on techniques for preparing two tasty Italian recipes following by a well appointed lunch served in her beautiful home in the heart of Lucca. Absolutely perfect day! Thank you Silvia. Hope you will visit us in San Francisco and Napa Valley when you travel to California.

Authentic and Delicious - Silvia was gracious and friendly. She opened her home to us and we both felt very welcome in her kitchen. The dishes we prepared were delicious and simple. And the shopping trip through Lucca was interesting and fun. We would recommend Silvia’s cooking class to other travelers looking for an authentic Italian food experience.

Walking and Munching is a perfect way to experience Lucca - Maria and Marco created a 3 hour tour of yummy food and interesting history of Lucca. Leisurely walking with bites along the way and plenty of time to shop for the foods we tasted.
