Wow what an amazing day! This was a fantastic day with a fantastic chef and hosts and delicious food! It was so enjoyable, I booked another class the following week as part of their 2 night package and I will be back for more! Fede, Louise and the team are wonderful hosts. If you enjoy great food with an interest in getting hands-on, make sure you do this!!

We just had the best time and experience with Federico and Louise at Casale Alessandri. Federico's passion for food shone through in his teaching, wonderful hints and of course the preparation and presentation of his dishes. Combined with their great hospitality, this experience was the highlight of our trip to Italy. Well done "Chef"!

Exceptional experience with a charming chef and his wife. We enjoyed the cooking experience as well as 3 nights accommodations in this quaint villa. Would highly recommend this class and bed & breakfast!!! Delicious food, romantic atmosphere and authentic experience!

Attending this cooking class with Federico was fun but also an enlightening experience. We learned new and better ways to cook tomatoes to make the mother sauce, process garlic, make spinach stuffing and boil potatoes contrary to ways we'd been taught with better outcomes. Federico is engaging and included everyone in the process. Ironically all of the attendees in our class were from Georgia which made the class even more fun. The professional kitchen is perfectly suited for teaching. Our final meal was delicious and I look forward to using my new skills in the kitchen. The property at Casale is beautiful and the way they have updated the property while still maintaining its historical legacy is stunning. You won't be disappointed taking this class and staying there would be even more enjoyable.

Peacefulness environment where Louise and Federico ensure you have all you need to fully enjoy your stay. Rooms are well decorated and have everything you need (AC, kettle, mini bar, confortable bed) Beautiful mirror swimming pool where you can relax surrounded by nature, house garden and little lovely chapel. Federico cooked us an amazing Gourmet menu with 5 dishes, each more beautiful and tasty than others. We also had the opportunity to do a 5h cooking class, Federico was very patient, he explained all steps in details while ensuring a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Louise was here from the breakfast until the evening, always with a smile and ready to give you any advices on the places to visit. We can only highly recommend you to go to Casale Alessandri where you will be welcomed by a very professional and friendly couple. We are looking forward to coming back.

Spent three days/two nights to start our family trip to Italy. Was an incredible experience. Grounds were absolutely stunning. Hospitality was second to none. The food was some of the best we had eaten. It was fresh and flavorful and really represented the region. Chef Federico’s knowledge of flavor profiles is amazing. His cooking class was so much fun and the food we created absolutely delicious. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention Louise, the chef’s wife. She made sure we were completely satisfied in all of our needs. Will absolutely be going back.

We attended this cooking class with our adult children and it was a highlight of our trip to Umbria. The class was jam packed with activity. Instruction was suitable for all cooking levels. (We were a class of 10 total, some newbies and some looking to cook in the restaurant business.) Chef Frederico was an energetic and enthusiastic teacher, providing detailed tips, techniques and insights to really elevate the preparation of our delicious lunch. It was a good mix of hands-on activity and observation. It was also a delight to tour the property, which has been in Frederico's family for generations, and cook in the spacious, newly-added classroom/kitchen. We highly recommend!

A great day and experience at Casale Alessandri. It was a fabulous day from beginning to end and so much fun. Louise & Federico have a beautiful property and home, where they offer such a great Italian experience of learning to cook alongside Federico. The five hour class went by fast. We learned so many great tips in making sauces as well as learning to make the pasta. Ending with sampling all the food…delicious, scrumptious and perfectly Italian. Thank you Federico and Louise for a day to remember!

Wow, wow, wow, wow! My girlfriend surprised me with this trip for my birthday and it did not disappoint. We stayed for 2 nights at this beautiful location and did the 5 hour cooking course. I have done a couple in my time and this by far the best. The chef (Fede) explained how to really understand the ingredients used and why he was cooking in certain ways. Fede's passion for cooking and teaching shines in his classes. On top of eating amazing dishes Louise was an excellent host. Highly recommend and cant wait to go back! Genuinely we have no bad words to say!

Me and my partner recently visited Casale Alessandri and had a cooking lesson with Fede, which was hands down the best experience we had in Italy. Fede & his wife made us feel incredibly welcome in their home & helped show us everything from start to finish. If you're looking for an authentic Italian experience with an incredibly talented chef look no further. We will be back 100%.
