Florence: Wanna Be Italiano - The Original Cooking Class with Local Market Tour
About this experience
Experience Florence through a food tour and cooking class. Start your day with a professional chef at the Central Market, where you will walk through the stalls, discover seasonal produce, cheeses, and cured meats, and try regional foods.
After the market visit, go to the Towns of Italy Cooking School to master two of Italy’s most iconic dishes from scratch. You will learn to make Nonna’s lasagna, including rolling fresh pasta and layering it with slow-cooked Bolognese sauce and béchamel. You will also make tiramisu.
At the end, you will eat the dishes you prepared in a convivial sit-down meal, paired with Tuscan wines and dessert wine. The chef will also share information about local wine.
You will receive a digital recipe booklet and cooking tips after the class.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
