- Thank you Francesca & Luca for a lovely evening. What a fun experience, learning how to prepare real Italian food. The recipes were simple but soooo delicious. You made us all feel welcomed from the moment of pick up, through the cooking experience and sharing the delicious food prepared by all. What a way to finish off in Como. I would 100000% recommend your experience, it was fantastic.
- This was the most amazing experience we had in Italy! They were both so welcoming, kind, and knowledgeable about the dishes we were making and guided us every step of the way. We shared laughter, conversation, and all had such a wonderful time together. If you are in Italy, I urge you to book this unforgettable 5 star experience with the most amazing hosts! Xoxo Morgan
- An Unforgettable Honeymoon Experience! My partner and I took a pasta-making class in Italy as part of our honeymoon, and it turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of our trip! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family. The setting was dreamy—rolling countryside, rustic kitchen, and the aroma of fresh herbs and garlic in the air. Our instructor was not only incredibly skilled but also warm, funny, and passionate about Italian cuisine. We learned to make everything from scratch—kneading the dough, shaping the pasta by hand, and pairing it with delicious, regional sauces. It was hands-on, immersive, and surprisingly romantic! We sipped local wine, laughed a lot, and sat down to enjoy our creations at the end. The food was incredible, but what really made it special was the experience of doing it together. If you’re in Italy for your honeymoon—or any special occasion—do not miss this! It’s more than just a cooking class; it’s a memory we’ll cherish forever. Grazie mille! 🇮🇹🍷🍝💕
- Our class with Francesca and Luca well exceeded our expectations. They were both incredibly kind, humorous and hospitable. The food was delicious and the conversation was great! We would recommended this experience to anyone.
- Our experience with Francesca and her husband exceeded all expectations. We had an amazing time cooking with them prior to sitting down and enjoying a lunch from what we had learnt to make. The lesson was lots of fun, and the conversation just flowed once we sat down to eat. We would recommend this experience to everyone who enjoys learning a new cuisine.
Laugh and learn from the lovely locals. - September 2025
