Your experience
I was born and raised in Valtellina, a beautiful Lombard valley surrounded by the Alps not far from Milan. In this experience, I wish to share the mountain flavors of that territory, made of simplicity and richness of taste. I am waiting for you to prepare together the most typical Valtellina recipe: pizzoccheri. We will make buckwheat-based pasta together and cook them according to the traditional recipe. All the ingredients come directly from Valtellina. We will accompany them with other tastings that I personally select from artisanal Valtellina producers. We will experience together a short and intense journey among the flavors of our Alps! I look forward to seeing you in Valtellina, Milan!

- Andrea was amazing, it was his first time hosting this class and he knocked it out of the park. He welcomed us into his home and made us comfortable right away. We shared the experience with one other couple and it was easy to get along with them. Andrea provided us a step by step on how to get things started and progress through the meals. He was patient with everyone and was happy to share info and tidbits about Milan and his life. Highly recommend the class with Andrea!
- I took a pasta and tiramisu class with Andrea on the last evening of my trip to Milan. This was an absolutely amazing experience and a highlight of my trip that I would recommend to anyone! Andrea welcomed me into his home and taught me to make tiramisu as well as two types of pasta, all of which we eventually ate as an extraordinary meal. Not only was he an excellent teacher, completely patient and making sure I understood and had mastered each step, but he also did this with such warmth and hospitality, sharing wine, horderves, and wonderful conversation along the way. I felt so lucky to have had this beautiful experience - and recommend it highly!!
- We had a class with Andrea and it was nothing short of outstanding. Andrea made numerous dishes from hi personal recipes, shared wine with us and created a warm and comfortable setting. The only thing better than the foods we tasted was the fellowship. My wife and I recommend this experience if you’re visiting Milan.
- We had an amazing experience with another couple and Andrea making pasta and tiramisu. Andrea made us feel very comfortable, like we were at home. He also provided very clear and simple instructions and encouraged us to participate and making the food that we eventually ate, which turned out better than we could’ve ever imagined. Andrea is a wonderful host and I can’t recommend this event enough!

Cesarina from 2023Location: Milan Languages: Italian, English, FrenchMemories, flavors, and authentic family traditions. My cuisine is simple and full of flavor, infused with the joy of sharing. I love discovering new things and meeting new people, and I believe that getting to know each other through a shared culinary experience makes the moment even more profound. In my dishes, I see the smiles of my grandmothers and my mother, as a child I watched the wisdom of their hands kneading. My recipes are genuine and blend tradition with my curiosity for tastes and experimental pairings, with a particularly strong connection to the place where I was born and raised: Valtellina. I wait for you!
