From beloved grandma’s meatballs to crispy bruschetta, all the way to my favorite dish: a potato and onion quiche with a secret ingredient. You’ll learn the recipes I always use to make every occasion feel special. We’ll also prepare a light breaded cod with potatoes or a fresh salad, to ensure a perfect balance of flavors. By the end of the class, you’ll have mastered my favorite dishes and gained the confidence to impress your guests whenever you like. I can’t wait to cook with you!

    Margherita was warm, inviting and engaging. She is very well spoken and personable. She was attentive to our needs and demonstrated the processes clearly. She is very intelligent and fun. We felt right at home in her home. She took much time and attention to details for the session. We absolutely loved meeting her; cooking with her and sharing the dining experience with her.

    We, my wife and I had received this wonderful cooking lesson from our sons and their partners for birthday. Together with us six people, a young couple from the US in their honeymoon joined us. We had a wonderful time with Margherita and her boyfriend Matheu. We were hosted in the warm sourrounding of their private apartment and prepared Ravoli, Fettuccine as well as Tiramisu. The recipes came from her nonna. This is why it was so tasty. We really enjoyed our time and loved the hospitality of Margherita. We would definitely book another cooking lesson with her again!

    Arquerita was an excellent teacher who welcomed into her home. She went above and beyond as a gracious host. We had a great time.

    Fantastic! This was a surprise for my partner and it couldn't have gone better. Margherita was a perfect hostess. The apartment is beautiful with an amazing view of the lake. From the very start we felt relaxed and comfortable. The conversation flowed easily and we got on very well. She explained how to cook and I even made pasta! It was a very special evening that we shall treasure for a long time. Highly recommend you spend the evening tasting Margherita's delicious food!

    Margherita
    Cesarina from 2024Location: Como    Languages: Italian and English
    Since I was a child, I have always loved cooking, spending hours in my grandmothers' kitchens and learning all their secrets. This passion has become more than a hobby; it is my way of sharing love and creating special moments. Even during university, I would invite friends over for hearty dinners and unforgettable evenings. My cooking style is a blend of influences from my two grandmothers: Southern Italian flavors and Milanese traditions, combined with tastes discovered through travel and living abroad. The result is a "Nonna-style" – generous, comforting portions with a modern and healthy twist. I put love into every dish, combining tradition and innovation to create meals that make people feel at home while offering something new. For me, cooking is the perfect way to bring people together, create precious memories, and celebrate the beauty of the flavors I have encountered on my journey.
