View on Google MapsChef Dedalo and Chef Otilia host an amazing Tuscan culinary experience. Their cooking class was our most favorite, lasting family memory from our trip to Cortona and I cannot recommend it enough. They welcome you into their beautiful country home to share an evening with their family, providing delicious wine straight from their vineyards and a tasty, authentic, and approachable menu which they will teach you to cook. Prepare to roll up your sleeves. If you want to get a sense of how a real Italian family lives, then this is for you. We were in Cortona visiting our daughter who is studying there, and decided to book this experience as a family. Each of us agree that cooking with Chef Dandy and Otilia and their family was the best night of our trip, and I wouldn’t have changed a thing. It feels like a special honor to be a guest in their hospitable home and kitchen, and you’ll feel like you’re among friends that you’ve know for ages. I hope to return someday, thank you again Dedalo and Otilia.
My husband and I took a cooking class (just the two of us) taught by Dèdalo and his wife Otilia in their home. My Italian is so-so but my husband only speaks English but communication wasn’t a problem; Dèdalo and Otilia speak English well. We were made to feel very welcome. The class (lasting about four hours) consisted of two kinds of bruschetta that Dèdalo had made (he shared the recipes with us), a ragù that he made with us, fresh pasta that Otilia made with us, and ended with tiramisù that we made with her. Water, caffè, and wine were freely offered. My husband and I then ate our meal on their terrace that had a beautiful view. The family was just lovely. Dèdalo’s parents were there pitching in, as were their young daughter and her cousin. It was a peek into Italian family life capped off with a delicious meal. We thoroughly enjoyed their generous hospitality and would highly recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys cooking.

I booked this cookery course for myself and my daughter and her friend. it was amazing. I can't say how much fun it was and getting to meet a lovely family at the same time was even more special. the course was organised so well and each dish was well thought out and we learnt so much. I've made fresh pasta since I got back.
This experience was so much fun! Our host was such a character - amazing stories and great food with an Italian family. Chef Dandy was so welcoming, and we loved that his mother was part of the class as well, showing us exactly how to make the dough. If you're looking for a relaxing day where you learn to make some delicious dishes - this is a great experience for you. And, compared to some other cooking classes available, it was very reasonably priced for what you get. We even had a certification ceremony and Chef Dandy sent us tons of cute pics he took during the class and all our recipes.
What a fantastic experience! Dedalo and his mom and dad opened up their home to us and shared with us their love of cooking. While learning the recipes and correct way of making the food, we shared stories of travel and glasses of wine. Hope that we can replicate the deliciousness upon our return home. Thank you again! I highly recommend this experience.
Our cooking class was a highlight of our time in Italy. It was well organized, fun and gave us pasta making techniques to bring back home. Our charming teachers welcomed us into their home and at the end of the class we shared a delicious meal with them.
Our experience took us back in time. A family cooking together, sharing stories, laughing and a warm feeling of much love! This experience changed us! Enjoy the small things. Cooking together, eating together and making the sweetest memories! I met such beautiful people. This experience is unforgettable!!
