“We spent the most lovely day with Simonetta & Paola. We met Simonetta at 9 and were taken to the local food market. We were talked through the different ingredients for Tuscan cooking, we particularly enjoyed tasting 25 year old Balsamic vinegar. We then went to the flat where we met Paola and that’s where the work started! We learnt how to make the perfect pasta, and were given lots of tips in a fun and relaxed atmosphere. It was very enjoyable to sit down and chat to the sisters while enjoying the food we had prepared. I am going to talk my wife into going for the 5 day course in the country next time!!” from Trip Advisor
