Cooking Course in Italy


Cooking Course in Italy
Cooking Course in Italy offers two specialized all-inclusive hands-on cookery courses with a spectacular excursion: A Cooking Course in Italy and an Italian Mediterranean cookery course covering the flavors of not only Italy but also the French, Spanish and Moroccan kitchen. The Cooking Course in Italy is given in a "Cantina" which is a professional kitchen specially designed to ensure that everyone has enough space to roll up their sleeves and get to work.

All our chefs believe that the only way to learn to cook is to do it yourself. While they will demonstrate the techniques, be prepared to roll up your sleeves and put what you have seen into practice. The lessons of Cooking Course in Italy are informal and the chefs are flexible and willing to add those special dishes you always wanted to learn.

Rated by The Observer newspaper as one of the "Top 10 Cookery Schools in Europe", our cookery course in Italy continue to be the most comprehensive hands on cooking experience available anywhere. The Observer describes our Italian culinary school as "the inspiring 7 day cookery course".

Our cookery course in Italy offers a unique opportunity to experience at first hand authentic regional cooking techniques and recipes that have been developed and handed down over generations. Our culinary school in Italy is located at the splendid Casa Ombuto or the magnificent Torre del Tartufo, both recently restored large Tuscan villas set in a beautiful and tranquil location in the hills of the Casentino valley some 50km south of Florence, Italy. Both truly wonderful settings for any cookery course in Italy.
