One
of the most interesting and
fascinating experiences in Tuscany
is taking part in a cooking class.
Tuscan cuisine is based on simple
but tasty recipes belonging to
rooted traditions and coming
from wise farming. Arianna
& Friends gives you the opportunity
to discover all the secrets of
Tuscan food in our interesting
cooking classes. Our cooks are local
people preparing the same meals
that Tuscans eat at home, using
the same fresh and genuine ingredients
with the help of very useful tricks.
The duration of the classes ranges
from 2 to 3 hours according
to your needs before you sit at a
table and enjoy all the delicacies
you have prepared.
Our motto is: "The importance
of cooking earnest".
The
preparation of your dinner or lunch
includes a couple of starters, two
main courses (primo and secondo according
to the Italian tradition) with side
dishes and a dessert. During your
meal fitting local red or white
wines will be served as well.
There will be a friendly and helpful
assistant speaking English (on
request also German, Spanish, French,
Italian or Russian) ready to answer
any question of yours. Remember
that you can combine our cooking classes
with any other activity
of
Arianna & Friends.
