Shared Experience
Your experience

    Live a memorable day in the countryside with a farm tour and discover the secrets of rural life. We'll start by exploring the farm and meeting the animals, making this a perfect activity for families and children. You'll taste local specialties such as artisanal cheeses, salami, and honey. After the tour, we’ll return to my home for a traditional cooking class, where I’ll guide you step by step: we’ll prepare a bruschetta with typical local ingredients as a starter, followed by a handmade fresh pasta dish—like ravioli or tagliatelle—with a seasonal sauce, and finish with tiramisù, a classic dessert of Italian cuisine. A special opportunity to rediscover genuine flavors and create new memories together.

    The experience in the cooking class was wonderful. The location was difficult to get to but Patrizia’s home is beautiful. I wish the location was provided before booking.

    My husband and I had such an amazing time with Patrizia and Luca. They were such welcoming hosts, and we felt at home immediately! Patrizia was a wonderful teacher, and we can't wait to go home and try to make pasta and tiramisu on our own! Their house offers beautiful views of Lake Como, making for an unforgettable experience. This was easily one of our top highlights from our trip to Italy.

    Patrizia was an incredible host and teacher. Her recipes were approachable and absolutely delicious. We feel confident that we can recreate them and impress our friends and family back at home. We wish we could relive this fabulous experience over and over again!

    I can’t recommend this cooking class highly enough—it was truly the highlight of my trip to Italy! From the moment we arrived, we felt like we were welcomed into someone’s home rather than just a classroom. Our host was warm, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable, sharing not just recipes but also little family stories and traditions that made the whole experience feel so authentic.

    We had the most wonderful cooking class experience with Patrizia! She so kindly welcomed us into her lovely home in Bellano, and we learned so many great tips for making lasagna and tiramisu at home - we are inspired to go home and make it for our friends and family. Patrizia was so welcoming, this was a highlight of our entire trip to Lake Como!

    "My life is tied to the lake, this is where I have my roots and where I’m fine. I am a painter, my work allows me to manage time and the kitchen is for me my second workshop, where I can easily create dishes instead of paintings. My two children, now grown up and my husband were those who made me practice and love cooking. Hosting friends during the summer in the garden was an opportunity to understand that receiving guests is a pleasure and a personal enrichment. The ingredients of my recipes are all genuine, from local producers:  honey, cheese, fish, directly from the fisherman in Dervio, and vegetables from my garden that my husband cares with passion for many years. Our house is a bit like the houses of the past, the fireplace and the stove allow us to warm up and cook with wood, and I must say that the result of the dishes cooked on the wood stove is very good. Also in the garden we have a kitchen and, in summer, we prepare, cook and always eat outdoors."
