From Market to Table: Florence's Secret Pasta Masterclass

What Awaits You

Discover the soul of Tuscany through its most celebrated tradition—its cuisine. This immersive culinary journey begins with a sensory exploration of Florence’s vibrant food markets where centuries-old traditions come alive among colorful stalls and passionate vendors.

With your private chef as guide, weave through market pathways where relationships between producers and chefs have flourished for generations. Learn to select the perfect tomato, identify the freshest seasonal greens, and choose complementary ingredients while engaging with local vendors who share their ancestral knowledge and culinary secrets.

The adventure continues in an intimate Florentine kitchen where marble countertops become your canvas for pasta artistry. Under expert guidance, transform simple flour and eggs into silken ribbons of tagliatelle, plump pillows of ravioli, or perfectly formed orecchiette—skills that have been passed through Italian families for centuries.

As aromas fill the kitchen, complete your handcrafted meal with a traditional sauce that showcases market-fresh ingredients and a classic Tuscan dessert. Then gather around the table like true Florentines to savor your creations paired with regional wines while absorbing the convivial spirit that makes Italian dining an affair of both sustenance and soul.
