    My husband and I had the pleasure of participating in a wonderful hands-on cooking class overlooking beautiful Lake Como. Our hostess and instructor, Patrizia, was incredibly kind and gracious, as well as an excellent teacher. Our class was a small group of just three couples, which made the experience feel very personal. Patrizia made sure everyone had the opportunity to participate as we prepared two different types of pasta and tiramisu, and the intimate group size allowed her to give each of us plenty of individual attention. After we finished cooking, Patrizia invited us to relax at a beautifully set table in her picturesque garden overlooking the lake, where we enjoyed the meal we had prepared together. I would highly recommend Patrizia’s class to anyone looking for an authentic, hands-on Italian cooking experience in a truly beautiful setting!

    10/10 experience!! My husband and I were immediately graced with a warm welcome from Patrizia and her husband, Luca. It was clear they were eager to host us in their beautiful family home and share their abundant knowledge. With the most beautiful view we have seen in Italy, Patrizia walked us through, step by step, making pasta and the most decadent tiramisu we have ever had. We will forever look back on this experience with so much gratitude and joy. Thank you Patrizia and Luca! We HIGHLY recommend joining them for and evening of great food and even better company.

    We had the most wonderful day with Patrizia and Luca. Our family of four spent the afternoon making fresh pizzas, focaccia, and tiramisu. The food was outstanding, their home was stunningly beautiful, and they were such fantastic hosts. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

    "My life is tied to the lake, this is where I have my roots and where I’m fine. I am a painter, my work allows me to manage time and the kitchen is for me my second workshop, where I can easily create dishes instead of paintings. My two children, now grown up and my husband were those who made me practice and love cooking. Hosting friends during the summer in the garden was an opportunity to understand that receiving guests is a pleasure and a personal enrichment. The ingredients of my recipes are all genuine, from local producers:  honey, cheese, fish, directly from the fisherman in Dervio, and vegetables from my garden that my husband cares with passion for many years. Our house is a bit like the houses of the past, the fireplace and the stove allow us to warm up and cook with wood, and I must say that the result of the dishes cooked on the wood stove is very good. Also in the garden we have a kitchen and, in summer, we prepare, cook and always eat outdoors."
