A Christmas present they will actually use
Most presents get unwrapped, admired and put away in a cupboard by New Year. A class goes the other way: nothing to store, just time with their hands in the flour, on a day they choose for themselves, at our table in Florence or live online from their own kitchen.
The voucher comes by email, ready to print for under the tree or to forward on the day. Nothing is booked when you buy, so they open it at Christmas and pick a slot once they know their plans. Vouchers start from €68 and work for any class: a hands-on class in our Florence kitchen from €95, or the live online class with an ingredient kit shipped to their door.
What are you actually giving?
Three hours in a small Oltrarno kitchen with two Tuscan agriturismo head chefs, hands in the flour from the first minute, fettuccine and ravioli made by hand, their own tiramisù, and a sit-down meal of everything they made with a glass of Chianti. Never more than eight people at the table.
If they are not coming to Florence any time soon, the live online class works just as well as a gift: same chefs, same kitchen, with an ingredient kit shipped to their door. It is the one we send most often to people abroad.
How it works
Email us with who it is for, which class you have in mind and any message you would like on it. We will confirm the amount, take payment, and send you a voucher you can print or forward, usually the same day. No date is locked in when you buy; your recipient contacts us and picks a slot that suits them.
Not sure which class? Say roughly what they are like and what you want to spend, and we will suggest one. We would rather they got the right class than the expensive one.
Good to know
- Any class can be gifted: the Chef's Table (€95), Mercato & Mani (€145), the private kitchen (from €680) or the online class (from €68).
- Gifting to a couple? The class for two is the one people buy for anniversaries and weddings.
- Gluten-free or other allergies are handled at no extra charge, so you do not need to know their diet when you buy.
- Leaving it late? Email us and say so; a voucher can be with you within the hour during working hours.
