Florence Market Tour, Pasta Making Class & Traditional Tuscan Lunch with a Local

Patrizia is a cookbook author and wine and food journalist who is an expert on traditional Italian food products. She writes for three National Magazines and has traveled all around Italy and Europe to discover the highest quality food products. Patrizia’s mother was from Emilia-Romagna, Italy’s most important region for traditional home made pasta, and she learned to hand-make pastas such as tagliatelle as a young child.

Married with an 18-year old daughter, Patrizia’s passion for food and cooking led her to start teaching cooking lessons in her home. She loves to teach cooking classes and meet new people from all around the world, and is curious about other cultures.

Please note: This experience includes 2 glasses of local wine.

Please also note: There will be a small amount of walking, about 15 minutes, back to Patrizia’s home, so you should wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for some light exercise. Patrizia lives on the second floor of an apartment building so you will need to climb some stairs to enter her home.
