Best cooking class in Siena - We had an incredible experience with a fantastic family. Learning to cook pasta and other dishes in their home was truly fascinating. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, and we cherished every moment spent with them. One of our guests had to leave early, and the host’s husband kindly offered her a ride back to the hotel. This activity is a must-do when visiting Siena. It was the perfect way for our group to kick off our family trip to Italy.

The best cooking class ever! - This was an amazing experience! Enza was wonderful! We could not have asked for a better cooking class! Not only was it fun and engaging, the food was perfect. This was the highlight of our stay in Siena. We can’t wait to make pasta and tiramisu when we get home!

My wife and I loved this... - My wife and I loved this experience! Our host was a wonderful cook. She made five different pastas and Taramisu. It was great fun, instructive, and a great lunch. We just wish our daughters had been with us. I guess we’ll have to come back.

Amazing and True Local Flavors! We felt like family - Enza was amazing and made our experience so special. She took her time teaching us everything about her recipes and how true Locals in Siena cook. We’d recommend her class a million times over. She treated us like family, including my 2 year old daughter, and accommodated wonderfully for Both gluten & nut allergies making sure everyone could eat everything we prepared.

Lovely evening cooking with Patrizia! - My husband and I had a lovely and fun evening cooking dinner with Patrizia! She was so kind and patient, and we learned a lot about authentic Italian cooking! We made our own pasta, which we have never even attempted (we are now going to try it at home!). It was simple ingredients, but everything was so delicious :)
