Spend the evening in a real Italian kitchen instead of another restaurant. We pick you up at 6.30pm, this is home cooking. You learn to make fresh pasta and then make your own, and you eat it at the family’s table. You get driven back at the end.
Most food experiences in Tuscany happen in a place built for visitors. This one happens in a house. The door opens, someone puts a glass in your hand, and the kitchen is already working.
Aperitivo first, home cooking, then your pasta, then dessert. Nobody comes to clear your plate so they can turn the table.
At the end the same van takes you back. That is the whole evening, and there is nothing in it for you to organise.
Wherever you are staying. Tell us the address when you ask for a date and we will confirm the pickup with your booking.
The price is per person and it drops as the group grows. One evening, one family, one kitchen: the cost of putting it on is the same whether there are two of you or six, so the more of you there are, the less each of you pays.
| Your group | Per person | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 2 guests | 160 euro | 320 euro |
| 3 guests | 145 euro | 435 euro |
| 4 guests | 125 euro | 500 euro |
| 5 guests | 110 euro | 550 euro |
| 6 guests | 100 euro | 600 euro |
Six is the maximum. There is no separate child price: children count as guests and pay the same.
ONE HOUSE, ONE TABLE, SIX SEATS
This is a family home, not a venue with two sittings a night. There is one table, it stops at six people, and the date has to work for the family as well as for you.
Ask as soon as you know which night you are in Pisa. The sooner you ask, the more likely the answer is yes.
You are a guest in a family house, at their table, eating off their plates. That is the difference between eating Italian food and eating in an Italian home.
Pickup at 6.30pm from where you are staying, and a ride back at the end of the night. No rental car, no parking, no hunting for a taxi at 10.30pm.
They show you how it is done first, close up in a working kitchen. Then you make your own pasta with your own hands, and that is the plate that arrives in front of you at dinner.
Aperitivo to start, the pasta you made, dessert to finish. You leave having actually had dinner, so the evening is done and there is nothing left to plan.
It runs from two guests and stops at six. One table, one family, nobody else’s group to share the kitchen with.
The evening costs the same whether there are two of you or six, so the price per person comes down as the group grows. Two guests pay 160 euro each. Six pay 100 each. If you are travelling with friends or family, bring them.
This evening is not on a fixed calendar. You tell us when you are in Pisa, we check with the family, and we build it around you.
Discovery Pisa takes care of the request, the confirmation and every question you have before the evening. The evening itself belongs to the hosts, which is the point.
Choose this if you want to spend an evening in someone’s home, cook, eat properly, and let somebody else handle the driving.
If you would rather do something shorter in the middle of the day, look at Make Your Own Mozzarella. If you want to eat your way around Pisa on foot with a guide, that is Tastes of Pisa.
The van comes to where you are staying. No address to find, no map, no car.
You are welcomed at the door with a drink and you meet the family. From here on it is their home and you are guests in it, which is a different feeling from walking into a class.
Flour, eggs, a board and a rolling pin. You watch fresh pasta being made in front of you, close enough to see exactly what the hands are doing, while the aperitivo comes together alongside it.
Your turn. Your flour, your eggs, your board. It is messier than theirs and it tastes better for it.
You sit down and eat what you made. Aperitivo, your pasta, then dessert. This is the long part of the evening and it is meant to be.
The same van takes you back around 10.30pm.
Discovery Pisa is a local Pisa operator. We are not a marketplace selling experiences in forty Italian cities. We know the family who hosts this evening, and we only put our name on things we would send our own friends to.
