My name is Francesco Borsari, and cooking has always been my language, connecting me to the land and cherished memories. I invite you to a special experience in an ancient olive mill by Lake Trasimeno, in the heart of Umbria. Surrounded by stunning views and the scent of freshly pressed olive oil, we’ll prepare traditional Umbrian dishes using local, organic ingredients. We’ll roll out fresh pasta, create savory sauces, and craft timeless recipes passed down through generations.
You’ll taste the finest olive oils from the mill and enjoy a guided tour, learning about the pressing process and history. At the end, we’ll share the meal we’ve created, savoring each bite and celebrating good food, laughter, and being together. It’s more than just a cooking class – it’s an unforgettable journey into the heart of Umbria, by Lake Trasimeno.
