Experience a true taste of Tuscany in a cosy local home just outside Pisa. Join Letizia and Matteo, a friendly local couple, for a hands-on homemade Tuscan dinner where you cook, share, and savour traditional family recipes. This isn’t just a meal — it’s an immersive culinary experience that brings you closer to Italian culture, warmth, and conviviality. Perfect for travellers, food lovers, or anyone curious about authentic Tuscan home cooking.
Begin your evening with a traditional Italian aperitivo in the garden, where you’ll explore fresh seasonal ingredients and learn how to use them in your menu. Guided by Letizia and Matteo, move to the kitchen, roll up your sleeves and cook each dish step by step, discovering the stories and traditions behind every recipe. Taste as you go, take notes if you like, or simply enjoy the process. Each recipe showcases the authentic flavours of Tuscany, from classic pasta dishes to time-honored family secrets.
Once your meal is ready, gather around the convivial table to enjoy the dishes you’ve prepared together. Share stories, laughter, and conversation with your hosts and fellow guests in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. By the end of the evening, you’ll leave with a gift from your hosts and lasting memories of a truly unique food experience.
Meet your hosts: Letizia brings a multicultural perspective given by living for many years in London, while Matteo, a native of Pisa, knows the city and the Tuscan region inside out. Together they create a warm, friendly environment where locals and travellers can connect over food, stories, and shared experiences. Experience Tuscany like a local, far from tourist restaurants, in a personal and intimate setting.
Small groups ensure every guest receives personal attention, making it suitable for couples, friends, solo travellers, or families. Whether you want to actively participate in the cooking or simply enjoy the meal and company, the experience can be tailored to your preference.
The venue is conveniently located just outside the city centre. Private parking is available for guests arriving by car, a bus stop is right outside, and a shuttle from Pisa Central Station can be arranged on request at no extra charge. Letizia and Matteo are dedicated to making your evening seamless, enjoyable, and unforgettable — all you need to do is show up, taste, cook, and connect.
