Overview

Enjoy a private market tour and Italian cooking class with Laura is a true-blue Venetian. She was born and raised in Venice and lives in a beautiful apartment in the city center (only a 20-minute walk from the city center). The neighborhood is very local with not many tourists so you will get to experience a real Italian suburb. Laura loves to travel, watch movies, go to the market and of course, cook! She learned to cook traditional dishes from her mother and she likes to serve local dishes from Veneto. She only uses fresh and organic ingredients from the local farmers. Laura is also an expert in vegetarian food, as she was a vegetarian for 10 years (but not anymore!).

An afternoon of magic

Traveling alone one doesn’t expect much in the way of connection. My first time in Venice in November is an experience of cool temperatures and confusion. Confirming the location of the pick up was conducted via email. Laura went one step further. Offering to meet me outside of my hotel entrance. Walking together through Venice, highlighting interesting locations. We progressed our way to the vegetable boat, the wine shop, the sausage butcher and back to her apartment. Her class brought a flavor of connection and personality.
Laura is the consummate hostess, her kindness, friendship and connection made this a day I will remember. Starting with Tiramisu and progressing to Risotto. The meal was magic. . Thank you Laura. Cannot wait to return in the future
Fabulous!

Laura is generous with her knowledge and an engaging teacher. We began class at an extraordinary produce market on a boat and purchased local wine from a knowledgeable shopkeeper. In her kitchen she offered expert and precise instructions while explaining her technique and how we could adapt her recipes for more guests in the future. We finished with a festive and delicious lunch of lemon rosemary risotto and tiramisu with sparkling rose.
Grazie Mille Laura

Oh my gosh. Such a treat for my daughter and I to shop and then cook risotto and tiramisu with Laura in her home. When I travel I like to experience the real country as much as I can and Laura provided this. Not only is she a great cook but she opened her house to us like we were long, lost friends.
Great experience for the whole family
