I am waiting for you in my home, on the shores of Lake Maggiore and overlooking the Borromean Islands, to share my passion for cooking with you! I am Gabriella and I have always loved traditional cooking. In my cooking class, I will teach you how to prepare three fresh pasta specialties: ravioli, tagliatelle and gnocchi. I will show you all the secrets to making perfect fresh pasta, from preparing the dough to making the different pasta shapes. I will guide you, step by step, in the preparation of the fillings and sauces that accompany these delicious dishes. At the end of the class, you will be able to taste the fruits of our labor, accompanied by a bottle of Piedmontese wine.

- Gabriella was a very gracious host. We thoroughly enjoyed the food and her showing us the preparation and helping to put it together. It was a highlight of our trip.
- If you’re looking for an unforgettable, authentic Italian cooking experience, I cannot recommend Gabriella’s class enough! We had the absolute pleasure of spending the day in her beautiful home, where she shared her family recipes for tagliatelle, ravioli, and gnocchi with us. Gabriella’s passion for cooking shines through in every step, from how she patiently explained each process to how she warmly answered all of our questions. The atmosphere was relaxed, fun, and filled with laughter. Gabriella’s teaching style made us feel at ease, even as beginners, and her love for Italian cuisine was infectious. The homemade pasta was simply divine, and pairing it with wine as we enjoyed the meal was the perfect touch. Gabriella also took photos of us throughout the class, which was such a thoughtful gesture to help us remember this incredible experience. If you’re ever in Italy and want to immerse yourself in the culture through food, this class is a must-do. Gabriella is truly amazing, and you’ll leave with not only new culinary skills but also unforgettable memories!
- Gabriella and her husband are very kind and welcoming. We were a family of three and were the only guests in our booking. We made three pastas and one dessert and everything was truly delicious! We all agreed that the ravioli was definitely the best pasta we had during our 10 trip to Italy. We enjoyed good wine and conversation over dinner and had fun learning the pasta making techniques. Take home recipes included. I recommend this experience.
- Her passion for cooking is exceeded only by her energy in the kitchen. A must do experience for anyone interested in Italian cuisine.
- Gabriella and Fausto are very welcoming and friendly to invite you into their home. The cooking class itself is fun and practical, whether you are an experienced home chef or never cooked before. Gabriella gives good instructions and lets you do the ‘work’. There is not a single dull moment. After the preparations and cooking, you get to eat the pasta’s you prepared yourself and it is delicious! Gabriella even packed up the left overs for us to take with us! Thank you for this amazing experience.
