Your experience
After the reception, we will turn to the creation of dessert, the classic tiramisu. Afterwards, we will move to the veranda to enjoy a trio of appetizers, accompanied by a glass of prosecco, recounting aspects of our lives. We will then return to the kitchen for our guests to be guided to learn the art of pasta making, particularly tagliatelle and ravioli but also gnocchi or orecchiette. Finally, we will gather at the table to enjoy the dishes we have prepared, enriched by our unique seasonings and flavors, favoring typical and seasonal products. With food, we will try to convey knowledge about the place, its history and local traditions and products to satisfy guests' curiosity.

- We had an amazing experience and would highly recommend
- Our cooking class with Maria was fabulous! My family and I were a total of 10 people for the class and lunch and Maria welcomed us into her home with such warmth and friendliness. She’s an exceptional teacher. We created homemade pasta that was just delicious. It was a true highlight of our trip. I recommend enthusiastically to do this class for your next trip.
- Being at Mariolina’s house felt like walking into the home of a lifelong friend. In addition to the family atmosphere, the recipes offered were delicious and easy to recreate. It was definitely an experience to be repeated, alone or with company, assured of the warmth with which Mariolina welcomes people. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
- Fantastic evening in a home of a wonderful person, with amazing food and drinks. It was an unique and amazing experience. We will repeat.
- Our luncheon cooking class exceeded all our expectations. Our travel group of 8 has done cooking classes throughout Europe. This was the best yet. Food was delicious, and topped off by an entertaining experience from Maria—dancing, singing, great stories—all while learning how to cook dishes that we will actually cook at home. We all agreed Maria is the best!!

Where
Maria
Cesarina from 2023Location: Desenzano del Garda (BS) Languages: Italian and EnglishI really enjoy working in the kitchen and love learning to prepare new dishes, which, along with traditional recipes, are always well-received at my table. I have Neapolitan origins, so those who come to eat at my place usually prefer that cuisine. However, I take pleasure in cooking any kind of recipe: from appetizers, soups, first and second courses of meat and fish, to desserts. All of this is tied to a light and flavorful cuisine, limiting the use of fats and fried foods.
