While it ws originally billed as cooking class on the Tuscan hills, there was a last minute change and the class was in a B and B in Florence. While we did not get to experience the Tuscan Hills Farmhouse or select produce, we did have a nice cooking class with only one other couple. We made tiramisu, pasta and eggplant parmesan all from scratch...then got to eat it for dinner. Our instructor Cynzia was very experienced and made sure we did everything to her high standards which we appreciated when we finally got to enjoy!
