Your experience
- Local cold cuts and cheeses
- Ravioli
- Panna cotta
I invite you to join me for a market tour in the center of Varenna! It will be a 360-degree sensory experience, during which we will have the opportunity to touch the quality of local products first-hand and breathe the authentic scents of the earth. This experience will allow us not only to shop consciously, but also to connect more deeply with the culture and culinary traditions of the place. Once the market tour is over, we will go to my house, where we will put into practice what we have learned, transforming the freshly purchased ingredients into delicious dishes to enjoy together. From fresh pasta, to create tasty ravioli, to a delicate panna cotta. I look forward to this fascinating culinary adventure with you!

- Anna was an absolute delight and our entire experience was unforgettable. She was patient in her explanation and made sure our pasta making was a success. We prepared two different dishes and got to enjoy the fruits of our labor with new friends at her beautiful home.
- This was such a lovely cooking class! My grandmother and I did the course together and had the most amazing experience learning new things and doing it together! Could not recommend the class or Annamaria more!
- We can not rave enough about are amazing hostess and her class. In her kitchen, high above Lake Como, my husband and I learned how to make pastas, tiramisu and bruschetta. Yum..She was so knowledgeable, (had owned her own restraurant) and was very positive, encouraging and kind. One of the high points of our 2 week adventure. Hope she writes a cookbook.❤️❤️
- This class exceeded all of our expectations, and then some. Our most delightful and experienced Chef Annamaria, could not have done more to make us feel welcome and at home in her kitchen. I feel we have a new friend. She taught us so much—including secrets-and was very supportive and always encouraging. Hope she writes a cookbook one day. Thank you so very much for the unforgettable experience. We will talk about it always.
