Amazing Experience!! - Joelle and Ricardo are wonderful hosts! Their home has a beautiful view of the Mediterranean Sea and we took a short walk along the sea before our arrival. The food and the experience we had with this lovely couple in their home was amazing. We ate panzanella, tortelli maremmani with meat sauce, and tiramisu. Cesarine Joelle shared her recipes and even let us help make the ravioli. This was a highlight of our travels to Italy.

Excellent dining experience - Cesarine and her husband were fantastic. So kind and patient with our kids. Food was beyond delicious. Highly recommend.

So memorable! - We had such an amazing time with our host family!! We felt like we got to know their culture and way of life. They were so generous with our 2 year old twin boys and the food was delicious. Amazing experience!

A must do! - My husband and I had an amazing lunch with Cristiana at her beautiful villa. It was one of the highlights of our trip! The food was delicious but the conversation even better! I highly recommend!!

Absolutely Spectacular - Ricardo and Joelle were the most gracious hosts and the food was amazing. The best meal we had in Italy. We were welcomed into their lovely home with a gorgeous view of the Mediterranean Sea. They served a four course meal with wine and even showed us how to make pasta in their kitchen. Would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic Italian experience.

Outstanding Experience - Joelle and Riccardo are the most gracious, charming, and welcoming hosts. I had the most wonderful time in their lovely home eating all kinds of scrumptious food prepared by Joelle who is a very accomplished chef. She even showed me my how to prepare fresh pasta and we made various preparations together. Consider yourself very fortunate indeed if you ever have the opportunity to spend an afternoon with this delightful couple. I feel as though I have made new friends.

A Wonderful Evening in Livorno - My wife and I had a Wonderful evening together with Joelle and Riccardo with authentic Tuscan food and wine. It was a pleasure to meet the host couple in their home. We are definitely going to try the recipes we received when we return to our home.

Loved it! - We enjoyed a lovely evening and delicious food at Ricardo & Joelle's home while on a Viking cruise stop. It was one of the best memories of our trip!

Must do!! - Cristiana and her Mom were amazing hosts. The meal was absolutely delicious and the experience was priceless. We highly recommend!!! One of our best days in Italy 🇮🇹.

Wonderful Experience in Livorno - Our family toured the Mediterranean for a week and lunch with Joëlle and Riccardo was the highlight of the trip. I thought my teenage children might not find a lunch experience interesting, but boy was I wrong. They absolutely loved it and Joëlle and Riccardo made us feel welcome and at home. They shared a collection of old (pre-1900) books which my father and son really enjoyed flipping through and the kids were amazed by their collection of antique audio and video equipment. Lunch made it clear Joëlle is an accomplished chef. The menu included several types of crostini, ravioli, beef peposo, and tiramisu torte for dessert all while we worked our way through several different wine pairings. She was patient with my daughters helping prepare the ravioli from beginning to end and provided us with detailed recipes for all the dishes to take home -- so of course my daughters insisted on giving a try the day after we returned home! Joëlle and Riccardo went the extra mile and helped make some beautiful memories for my family on our stop in Livorno. Highly recommend this experience!
