So great. So generous. I suppose it wasn't cheap, but it was such great value. I cannot recommend it highly enough. From Jaynie's careful preparation through to Leonardo's clear passion for his ingredients it truly was an experience. My only complaint is that they were...More

  We arrived at Leonardo and Jayne’s during some of the worst weather Leonardo had seen in Abruzzo so unfortunately we were unable to go into the garden, but this did not spoil our experience in any way as the day was so wonderful it really...More

  We went for a small family gathering for August 15th Ferragosto lunch, and what a fabulous spread we had! The food and drink was amazing and plentiful, and the welcome was wonderful. The restaurant was full, but the owners and staff were very friendly and...More

  I was recommended the restaurant and we were surely not disappointed by the experience. We were certainly made welcomed by the owners and as we were the only people in the restaurant we had their full attention. The ingredients were all so fresh they just...More

  Leonardo & Jaynie were absolutely fabulous, the surroundings breathtaking, and the food sublime - even the pasta we made from scratch (Two types - egg pasta and a flour and water, with a little olive oil one)! Grazie to you both for a very enjoyable...More

  My sister and I had a wonderful day learning who to cook Italian style, using home grown organic vegetables and local fare. Leonardo, Janey and Luigi are the perfect hosts, informative, friendly and often amusing, and they put their hearts into every thing they do....I would highly recommend, and would definitely book again, perhaps for a special gift for someone dear.

  This was an amazing cooking class - one of the highlights of my trip to Italy. This was more than a very hands-on cooking class, but an experience that included visiting the garden where most of the ingredients are sourced and a visit to the...beautiful waterfall that irrigates the garden. Chef Leonardo and his wife Janey are wonderful hosts who really care about having an authentic experience and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. We prepared 3 different pastas, including one with wild boar that Chef Leonardo hunted, a delicious lemon tiramisu and chicken with saffron from their garden. Chef Leonardo was patient and also focused on making sure I used the right techniques in preparing pasta - I definitely feel ready to prepare these dishes when I’m home. My only regret is that I did not have time for their multi-day classes but I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend this incredibly special and delicious experience. More

  We had Ferragosta lunch here with family and friends and as usual the food, wine, service and ambiance were second to none. Having visited Abruzzo many times over the past five years this is still our favourite restaurant by far. Highly recommend a visit BUT...More
