Your experience
  • Platter with fresh cheeses and fried gnocco
  • Bagna cauda
  • Rum tiramisu

Join a unique cooking class and discover bagna cauda, a typical Piedmontese dish with an authentic flavor. Piedmont, inspired by neighboring Valle d'Aosta, has created unique recipes with local ingredients and excellent wines. Based on salted anchovies cooked in olive oil, bagna cauda is served with raw, roasted and fermented vegetables. Its preparation is a moment of sharing, between tradition and conviviality. Candlelight warms the room, providing a timeless atmosphere. This is my family's recipe, handed down from my Piedmontese grandparents. I am waiting for you for an unforgettable experience!

Notre expérience gastronomique chez Franca et sa famille est probablement le meilleur cadeau d’anniversaire que j’ai eu de ma vie. Nous avons été accueillis mon mari et moi de façon très chaleureuse et avons pu assister et écouter les explications de Franca lorsqu’elle a préparé le succulent risotto à la fontine. Le repas avec les vol-au-vent à la fondue de fontine en entrée, risotto, veau délicat avec carpaccio de tomates du jardin, et pour finir les pêches au four aux biscuits amaretti. Quel régal ! Merci infiniment Franca, pour votre cuisine rare et excellente, ainsi que votre accueil très convivial. Je vous recommanderai vivement à tous ceux qui veulent connaître non seulement la cuisine valdôtaine, piémontaise et même d’autres régions d’Italie, mais aussi avoir le plaisir de faire la connaissance de personnes charmantes. À bientôt j’espère !

Inoubliable soirée pour mon anniversaire 🤗 - July 2025

Franca
Cesarina from 2018Location: Pontey    Languages: French, English, Italian
Valle d'Aosta is the ideal place to enjoy traditional dishes, visit castles and, in summer, gaze at the star-filled sky while surrounded by nature.  "I think I was born in the kitchen. I was lucky enough to have stay-at-home grandmothers who were very skilled in preparing local traditional foods," recounts Cesarina Franca.  Franca’s cooking is first and foremost based on using fresh products. She grows her own vegetables in the garden, collects wild herbs and mushrooms from the places her grandmothers took her to as a child. Everything else that she needs, such as eggs, cheese and meat, she buys near her home, directly from local breeders and farmers.  Since Valle d'Aosta is an area that combines Italian, French and Swiss traditions, Franca's cooking is full of surprises.
