- Amy S2 contributionsBest Cooking Experience in FlorenceI highly recommend this class with Jacopo. It is well worth the price! His expertise was apparent, the food was incredible, and he is just a lovely person with whom to sit and share a meal. I can't wait to try out the recipes at home.Visited March 2023Written 29 March 2023
- friendlyfilmsToronto, Canada4 contributionsFantastic Italian Cooking ExperienceOur family had the best cooking and cuisine with Jacopo and Anna. We were welcomed into their home and felt like part of their family as we learned about and then diced, mashed, sautéed, and cooked our sumptuous 6 course meal in his ample kitchen. It was fantastic! Jacopo was a tremendous instructor and we created fresh pasta from scratch, delicious asparagus risotto, tiramisu and the best chicken cacciatore we have ever had. The wine was good too! As we savored our meal together with Jacopo and his wife at their kitchen table, our family knew that we had just had a one of a kind evening. We recommend this cooking experience for all families.Visited May 2023Written 23 May 2023
- Maura D5 contributionsA must-do experienceIf you get the slightest enjoyment from food and cooking, don’t hesitate for a moment to book a cooking class with Jacopo. I went with my family, including my 5 and 7 year old. We started the class with a walk to the market in Florence, where we bought vegetables, cheese, and meat. We headed to the apartment that Jacopo grew up in to make pizza, tiramisu, ravioli, tagliatelle, and gnocchi. Jacopo is a great teacher and included all of us in making everything. And each dish was so delicious. We are at the beginning of our trip, but this will likely the highlight and certainly will be an experience I recommend to friends, family, and even some of my enemies!Visited June 2023Travelled with familyWritten 7 June 2023

- Laura M3 contributionsNot to Be Missed When You’re in Tuscany!If you love to eat Italian food, can a day in Tuscany get any better than this: spending it in an Italian chef’s kitchen, preparing dishes under his gentle guidance, then sitting together in his backyard (with his lovely wife) to share the meal you helped prepare? Jacopo Tendi is a master of food, Italian regional dishes, and the stile di vita Toscano. He seems to thoroughly enjoy teaching the art of cooking simply, seasonally, while emphasizing the use of locally-sourced ingredients. Over two days, our group learned the finer points of making a dozen regional dishes. Although I’m an experienced home cook, Jacopo enlightened me with his techniques, basic equipment, and the most flavorful ingredients. We made gnocchi, gnudi, panzanella, risotto, pasta, herb-stuffed pork loin, tiramisu, and more…and everything we made was favoloso! Jacopo’s cooking class is an experience not to be missed when you’re in beautiful Tuscany.Visited July 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 14 July 2023

- Explore22751612 contributionsAn amazing cooking class in Tuscany!A cooking class in Tuscany with Jacopo was just an amazing and delicious experience. He is a very experienced chef that is very used to teaching. He was patient and explained everything thoroughly. He also communicated the history and science behind the recipes. The whole experience was even more wonderful that our lesson was held in the beautiful apartment in Florence where Jacopo was raised and his mother still lives. It made the experience even more authentic. While we enjoyed making the food, we enjoyed eating it even more. Everything was absolutely delicious! I can’t wait to go home and make this good again.

tl;dr: IF YOU HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO BOOK THIS, DO IT!
We were fortunate enough to book Jacopo & Anna for a family session in-house. The care, attention, humor, and knowledge blended together to make this one of most powerful & fulfilling family experiences. Saying goodbye at the end of the evening was sad, but the loss was mitigated by the memories & excellent tiramisu.
We now have an entire family of aspiring Tuscan chefs, and our hearts (and bellies) couldn’t be more full. Bravo, and grazie Jacopo & Anna!

Cooking with Jacopo & Anna was our family's favorite activity in Tuscany. Jacopo is super organized and planned our time well. Each of us (5 ranging from ages 17-57) was always learning and preparing something new. Jacopo is an outstanding teacher who knows how to balance telling v. showing v. letting us do the work. Our meal included panzanella, spinach & ricotta ravioli w/sage & butter, potato gnocchi w/tomato sauce, tagliatelle w/pesto, asparagus risotto, roast pork with milk, and tiramisu. Sitting outside to enjoy the delicious meal and chatting together capped the perfect morning/afternoon. They are a lovely family, and I cannot imagine a better or more personal cooking class than this.

Do you love the art of cooking? Then this is for you!
We can't say enough! We have bragged about this experience for weeks now! It was a highlight during our month stay in Italy!
We chose to cook with Chef at his apartment so that we could go and experience the market with him.
Absolutely Fantastic! He explained why he was choosing each ingredient and what to look for as well as what not to choose and why.
We cooked in his beautiful apartment for hours and ate for hours too! We made spinach ravioli, pesto, pork loin stuffed with herbs, fresh gnocchi with scratch red sauce, more pasta, and an artichoke salad that blew my mind then to top it off we made a decadent tiramisu!
The wine was amazing as was the conversation we shared.
We truly enjoyed our time with him and we hope to cook with him again!

Wondering re availability for one of your classes May 20 -23 while my friend and I are in Florence. One reviewer mentioned the trip to the market included in the day.
Can you let me know cost and if any availability during this time for 2 people
Thank you in advance
