COURSES IN FLORENCE

Taking a course at Scuola di Cucina Lorenzo de’ Medici is a unique experience both for the professionalism of the didactic offering and the prestigious venue in which courses take place: in the Central Market in Florence, putting course participants in direct contact with the market’s top-quality culinary ingredients and food producers, true “artisans of taste” and an endless source of culinary inspiration.

All courses at Scuola di Cucina are taught by professional chefs in state-of-the-art, air conditioned kitchens designed by Arclinea.

Eight workstations (for two people each) are equipped with innovative appliances by Franke, including magnetic induction cooktops, a complete roster of kitchen utensils and appliances.

Each course begins with a focus to quality products, learning the production and their nutritional aspects. Culinary culture and the high professionalism of our chefs ensure a complete learning experience behind the burner.

Participants can follow every step of the preparation of a recipe, from the food design on the plate to the final tasting, which takes place at the chef’s table in a relaxed atmosphere with other participants of the course, with each person discussing and commenting on the final results.

Participants must be aged 14 years or above. For participants under the age of 14 years, please contact directly info@cucinaldm.com.
