Your experience
- Cheese of Lombardy with local Salami, jams, mostarda and onion
- Pumpkin tortelli with tomato sauce or sauteed with butter and sage
- Cake Sbrisolona
I'm Cesarina Ada from Castiglione delle Stiviere, near Lake Garda, and I invite you to join me in a traditional cooking class featuring recipes from my region, inside a historic house that was the first tavern in the village. Together, we'll prepare a medley of local appetizers, mouthwatering pumpkin tortelli with tomato sauce or butter and sage, and finish with the crispy Sbrisolona. Cooking for me is like traveling, as the creation of a dish involves various stages: from sourcing local ingredients to the method of preparation, from rediscovering traditional flavors to an in-depth understanding of local recipes. It's a journey of love that must be narrated and capable of astonishing my guests.

- Amazing food & a fantastic host. So kind & generous of you to have us in your beautiful home. We had a great time. The lactose free Tiramisu was amazing! Thank you again
- We had a great time. Ada really took the time for us and explain everything. It was very nice to eat with the three of us.
- Ada was amazing! She was so inviting and welcoming. She taught us so many skills while providing a super fun experience. It made our whole trip!
- My family and I planned a surprise cooking class for my mom’s birthday, as she is a talented cook and loves learning about cooking in different countries but Ada blew us away! She welcomed us into her home as if we were a part of her beautiful family and we had one of the best days we’ve had in Italy. She was extremely flexible and helpful with providing vegetarian and reduced lactose options for those with dietary restrictions and the meal was absolutely incredible and certainly something we will never forget. We love you Ada!! We HIGHLY recommend- best experience ever!!
- Esperienza meravigliosa. Competenza, disponibilità, accoglienza, passione e condivisione. Tutto in un’unica esperienza indimenticabile. Grazie Ada

Ada can't wait to show you how to appreciate the culinary excellence of Lombardy, bringing a touch of perfection and originality to her dishes. “Cooking for me is like traveling, because the creation of a dish goes through several stages: from the search for local ingredients to the type of preparation, from the desire to rediscover traditional flavors to a thorough knowledge of local recipes. A journey of love that must be told and will hopefully amaze my guests."
