Market Tour & Authentic Cooking Class in Piacenza

Begin your experience in the morning with a visit to a local market or supermarket, where you’ll learn how to choose fresh ingredients and understand the differences between similar products. This first step sets the context for the dishes you’ll prepare, offering insight into everyday Italian food culture. Once back home, it’s time to put on an apron and get hands-on in the kitchen. Together, you’ll cook a complete menu featuring an appetizer, a first course, and a dessert, with the possibility of vegan-themed variations based on your preferences. The class is relaxed and unhurried, allowing you to enjoy each step while learning practical tips and techniques you can repeat at home. The highlight is sitting down together to enjoy the meal you’ve prepared—a moment of conviviality, relaxation, and shared pleasure before saying goodbye. You’ll leave with all the recipes, personal advice, and renewed inspiration and confidence to keep cooking long after the experience ends.

Hosted by Cesarine, Italy’s oldest network of passionate home cooks, this class offers an authentic perspective no restaurant can provide. Join us to cook, taste, and experience Piacenza like a local!
