What To Expect
Meet your chef right in front of our rustic-chic location in the city center where the vibes are organic, the ingredients are top-notch and the mozzarella flows like wine. Speaking of wine, you’ll start this adventure with a cold glass of Prosecco, because every masterpiece (cheese or otherwise) deserves a sparkling kickoff.
Then, it’s showtime.
Led by an expert cheese maker, you’ll learn how to transform fresh curds into perfect little bocconcini, twist up some nodini, braid treccine and dive into making burrata and the ultra-luxurious stracciatella (spoiler: you’re going to want to lick the bowl).
Expect creative pairings like stracciatella with bottarga and lemon zest, plus a few secrets from the Simbiosi kitchen that you’ll absolutely be bragging about later.
To top it all off? A guided wine tasting featuring both organic and conventional wines lets you sip, swirl and debate your favourite while soaking in the delicious chaos you just created.
There will be laughter, music, mozzarella, wine, more mozzarella and possibly cheese-induced euphoria.
Whether you’re a die-hard cheese lover, a wine enthusiast or just here for the chaos and carbs, this is your moment.
