Florence: Zucchini Flowers, Pasta & Tiramisu Class + Market Tour

5.00(1)Florence· Renaissance · galleries · walkableEnglish, Italian, Spanish

This experience puts you inside the daily rhythm of Sant'Ambrogio, one of Florence's last neighborhoods where locals still shop, cook, and eat the way they always have. You'll start at Sant'Ambrogio Market with the chef of La Chicca, choosing the day's ingredients yourself, then head back to cook zucchini flowers, a fresh pasta chosen with you, and tiramisù from scratch, learning techniques and market instincts you won't find in a cookbook. It's a hands-on window into how Florentine cooks actually work, not a staged demo. The pasta changes with every group, so no two classes are the same. This is a great fit for curious cooks, food lovers who want more than a recipe, and small groups or couples looking for a memorable, personal way to spend a few hours in Florence.

Where this sits in Florence

Florence is about 8 min by road from Florence Peretola Airport. Compact enough to cross on foot in half an hour, and holding more Renaissance art than most countries. Busy in the middle and calm five minutes out; the Oltrarno side of the river is where people actually live and eat.
