With this experience you will immerse yourself 100% in Tuscan life: first we will go together to a typical market of the Tuscan countryside and we will buy fresh and genuine products just like a Tuscan would. Once back in the kitchen, according to the products found at the market, we will prepare a typical Tuscan lunch. Once back home you can amaze friends and family by recreating a complete Tuscan meal with ease.

Upon your arrival we will immediately go to a typical Tuscan market which takes place every Thursday morning. We will teach you to recognise the best raw materials and the best the market offers on the same day, favouring 0 Km and typically Tuscan products ; once the products have been chosen, we will return to the kitchen ready to become a chef!
