Experience authentic Italian cuisine, learning the tips and tricks to prepare a delicious menù you can simply remake at your house, with Istituto Italiano Scuola.

Our wonderful chef Caterina from Sugo.Cooking will lead us through the preparation of a typical Italian meal. We will focus on Italian dishes featuring winter Italian traditions.

This time we will teach you how to cook “Spezzatino di pollo con patate al forno” a dish that is very simple, but tasty, typical of many Mediterranean cuisines for its ingredients and for the slow cooking process. The spezzatino is a recipe that every grandmother will cook for you at least once during a typical Sunday family lunch.

Its characteristic is certainly the variety of ingredients that can be used to create different flavors every time. In short, it is one of the most versatile dishes of Italian cuisine.

We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you do not already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive. At the end of the preparation, we will eat together what we cooked.

Let our students speak for us!

IL MIO POSTO FELICE!!!!

Leslie Hughes

“What I like most about participating in a literature class with the Istituto is having classmates with whom to discuss our books. I like hearing their opinions and responding to them. Reading is a great pleasure of mine, but sharing a book makes reading an adventure. With a teacher guiding us we improve our language skills and become more self-confident expressing ourselves. I’m grateful for the opportunity!”

“I have been taking classes at the SFIIS for years because, short of a long stay in Italy, it is the best way to maintain and improve my language skills. But more than that, I enjoy being with the other students and my instructor(s), many of whom are now good friends. In my class we read classic and contemporary Italian literature, and our instructor keeps us up to date on Italian culture and even politics. The experience on Zoom is almost as good as the in-person classes; Barbara is amazing in her use of the tools to run a lively, efficient, and fun class.”

“The SFIIS school offers the best, well rounded Italian languages classes in the Bay Area. With native speakers as teachers, the classes provide a comprehensive, natural and fun way of learning. Everyone feels welcome, no matter the level. The teachers are encouraging, entertaining and enthusiastic about their language and culture. As a bonus, I've made life-long friends through SFIIS classes. Please join our Italian language learning community!”
