ECCELLENTE In base a 47 recensioni Pubblicato su Google Josefina RuizTrustindex verifica che la fonte originale della recensione sia Google. Una experiencia buenisima!!! Éramos ocho personas y cada uno con su estación de trabajo y sus ingredientes. El servicio que dan de preparar todo y después cenar lo que cocinamos fue increíble y nos permitió relajarnos y desinfectar de la experiencia. La clase estuvo muy divertida y aprendimos muchísimo, Simone muy paciente y explicaba muy bien. Para coronar la cena nos trajeron unos vinos riquísimos, un pan exquisito y una entrada de Burrata y postre de tiramisú increíble. Al final dejaron todo impecable. Una experiencia muy recomendable!!Pubblicato su Google Harrison McNaughtanTrustindex verifica che la fonte originale della recensione sia Google. We had Simone come to our rental house to do a pasta cooking class with my family of 10, ranging from 5years old to 67years old. Everyone had an amazing time! Simone was very kind and charming, informative, helpful, and great with the children. We had such a blast. We appreciated his focus on recipes and techniques that we could recreate at home without tons of fancy ingredients or tools. He brought every single thing we needed, set it all up, cooked the pasta, and served it on his own provided dishware. He cleaned up everything and left the kitchen spotless. Would highly recommend! 10/10Pubblicato su Google Christoph HojaTrustindex verifica che la fonte originale della recensione sia Google. Altamente raccomandato! Ho festeggiato la vita in Toscana con 22 ospiti provenienti da Germania, Inghilterra e Italia. Simone e la sua meravigliosa collega Stefania hanno cucinato per noi e hanno fatto veri e propri miracoli. Tutti i piatti sono stati preparati con passione e grande abilità. Ottimi antipasti tradizionali toscani, con un tocco moderno. La carne alla griglia (manzo, pollo, costolette) era straordinaria. I deliziosi dessert sono stati il fiore all'occhiello. Grazie mille per l'ottimo servizio e la buona preparazione. I vostri auguri speciali per me mi sono arrivati dritti al cuore. Highly recommended! I celebrated life in Tuscany with 22 guests from Germany, England and Italy. Simone and his wonderful colleague Stefania cooked for us and worked wonders. All the dishes were prepared with passion and great skill. Great traditional appetisers from Tuscany - with a modern twist. The grilled meat (beef, chicken, ribs) was amazing.

Hiring Simone to cater our wedding in Tuscany was the best decision I ever made! Simone was extremely responsive during the planning process and made sure every detail was perfect. He did it all - planned menus, provided wait staff and table settings, and cleaned everything after the meals. The food was absolutely incredible and provided a true taste of Tuscany. It was clear that Simone used high quality ingredients and put a lot of passion into his dishes. The table settings were beautiful and the wait staff were professional and attentive. Simone also provided a fun and informative pasta making class for the entire group. Overall I highly recommend using Simone’s catering services.

My family had the most wonderful, authentic cookery experience in Florence this week. Simone, assisted by his lovely wife Sefania, hosted us in their own home where we were expertly guided through the process of making gnocchi and ravioli. Simone is a fabulous chef and great teacher. He explains things really well and shares some useful tips and tricks of the kitchen. After our hard work, we were treated to a 4 course meal (2 made by us and cooked to perfection by Simone and a delicious tiramisu prepared by Stefania). There was also wine for those who wanted it. Fabulous day. Lovely people. Thank you Simone and Stefanie. You really are the perfect hosts. This was such an authentic experience. I would thoroughly recommend Simone’s cookery/dining experience to any food lover visiting the area.Pubblicato su Google Ruth LynchTrustindex verifica che la fonte originale della recensione sia Google.
