Shared Experience
Your experience
- Parmesan mini-basket with zucchini
- Swiss chards ravioli with ricotta and Lake Como local cheese
- Family style Tiramisù
My open-plan kitchen is a convivial space in my eclectic home filled with books, art pieces and design. Together, we will cook and I, a lover of small talk, will share some fascinating local stories. From Alessandro Volta, the inventor of the battery, to my father, an exponent of Como Abstractism and textile designer, to my anti-waste efforts with the Food Bank. Our culinary experience is based on simple and healthy dishes, using local ingredients. I prefer the market and local producers to capture the authentic flavors of this magnificent lake and its surroundings. My creations are based on vegetables and cheeses, the key elements of local cuisine, and my anti-waste philosophy is reflected in my choice not to waste food. I am waiting for you!

- t was an unforgettable evening with Monica. She is so kind and personable. It was great fun making ravioli, fettuccine and tiramisu with her. We learned a lot and really enjoyed what we cooked. We can warmly recommend Monica to everyone.
- Es war ein unvergesslich schöner Abend mit und bei Monica. Sie hat uns alles genau erklärt, Tipps gegeben und mit ihrer warmen, herzlichen Art haben wir uns sofort wohlgefühlt. Raviolo, Fettuccine und das Tiramisú waren weltklasse!!! Wir können jedem empfehlen, bei Monica Pasta und Tiramisù zu lernen. Mille grazie, Monica!!!!!!
- This was the highlight of our trip so far. Monica was such a gracious host. Welcomed us into her beautiful home like we were family. My husband and I loved making this memory together. Monica taught us how to make ravioli, fettuccine and Tiramisu. All three were so delicious. If you visit Como then visiting Monica is a must!!!
- My daughter and I had a wonderful time making two types of pasta and tiramisu. Monica was a gracious hostess. We enjoyed her company. I would highly recommend this experience.
- Wow this was the highlight of our trip/Honeymoon in Como! We were so surprised by how intimate this whole experience was! It felt like we were invited over for a private dinner with friends! Monica was so welcoming and the best hostess + instructor. She has a passion for cooking and creating the most memorable experiences. We enjoyed our class so much as well as having a fun and wonderful cooking class! We cannot wait to share what we’ve learned with our friends + family back home. Thank you Monica for everything! Truly unforgettable!

Monica
Cesarina from 2020Location: Como Languages: English, Spanish, Italian“I love to write, and to read, in fact, books fill my house. I am mindful of the quality of food; I like to cook what I eat; and share the pleasure of the table with other people, friends, and guests. I am involved in the recovery of food surpluses for social solidarity purposes with the Food Bank of Lombardy Onlus in Como, where I live. I try to hand down recipes that are simple, and easy to learn by everyone, and that are connected as much as possible to the tradition of the Larian territory.”
