6 h

This is not a standard cooking class, but a shared moment inside a real 18th-century villa still lived in, in the Tuscan countryside of Lastra a Signa.

The experience is shaped by what is available: aromatic herbs from the garden are used in the dishes, and the menu changes with the season, guided by the chef rather than a fixed program. There is no rigid structure or production-style format... the rhythm follows the natural flow of preparing, tasting, and sharing. What makes it different is the authenticity of the setting, the direct connection to ingredients, and the feeling of being hosted rather than attending a class.
