Overview

Live an authentic food and wine experience in Venice. Rosa and Angela will open the door of their house in Venice. The apartment is located in the Giudecca district. You will cook, eat and learn about the wines of Veneto Region in an authentic Italian atmosphere with music and of course only Venetian cuisine!

A family meal!

Mother and daughter, chef and sommelier, welcome you to their Venetian house.

Immerse yourself in the enchanted atmosphere of Giudecca Island, one of the few places still unknown in Venice, just 8 minutes by waterbus from St. Mark’s Square.

You will be welcomed with a glass of prosecco and Angela, the sommelier, will explain everything about this wine so unique.

Thanks to Chef Rosa’s skills, you will learn how to cook traditional dishes of Italian cuisine with a few and simple ingredients. We will prepare ravioli, gnocchi and fresh pasta, cooked with three different sauces, made by you for you.

In paring, wines from the Veneto region. You will learn about the autoctone grapes, the characteristics of these wines and the classic smells of stone fruit and flowers of Soave wine or the delicious cherry and licorice of Valpolicella wine.

Welcomed as in your family, you will conclude the meal with a very tasty tiramisu and the classic amaro. Traditional italian end-of-meal liquor prepared with herbs and spices that help digestion.

I feel like I got scammed. We received a email stating that the host got Covid-19 and will not be able to host, but still charged us with no notice. I reached out to the company but no one answered.

The chef, Lorenzo, was wonderful and an interesting and fabulous human being. We also enjoyed our conversations with him and the other guest. We had a rocky start in finding our host and delayed the meal almost two hours. If we had had better directions including a physical address we could have fixed that. Also we might have avoided any problems if we had been asked where we were coming from. This was not Lorenzo’s fault and he could not have been more gracious and kind!

We were met by the chef (Lorenzo) at the water taxi station and walked with him to his (nearby) home. Upon arrival we were greeted by another group of visitors that were in the process of making the evening meal (they had signed up for the chef's cooking class). The food was great and it made it especially memorable sharing the evening with Lorenzo and his other visitors.

If you're looking for an authentic Italian meal, Lorenzo is your man! He met us at the specified location on the confirmation and walked us over to his home. Upon arrival, he had appetizers and wine ready to be served. We chatted the entire time and ate so much amazing food. He creates all sorts of variations to suit each of his guests. Come to find out, he makes something different every day and even teaches cooking classes. This is a MUST for any foodie lover! Thank you again Lorenzo!
