We instantly felt at home in Marzia's kitchen, and she was passionate about teaching us how to make ravioli. Marzia knew it was our anniversary and showed us how to make multi-colored ravioli -- using beetroot to create red dough, including cute little hearts! Everything from scratch ... we mixed the eggs, semolina flour, and oil. Then we kneaded the dough -- Marzia showed us the right technique. Once the dough sat, we rolled it out by hand with a rolling pin, cut different shapes, and folded various ravioli. We had fun and learned a lot. Thank you, Marzia! We will never forget the experience you provided!

We (my daughter and I)had a wonderful workshop making ravioli. Marzia was very friendly, professional and taught us a lot. We really enjoyed it and can recommend it to everyone who likes cooking! Thank you very much, Marzia!

Grazie a Marzia ci siamo divertiti tutta la famiglia, compreso il bambino di due anni a preparare un ottimo tiramisù, ravioli ripieni e tagliatelle. Siamo stati accolti da tutta la famiglia con grande entusiasmo. Esperienza sicuramente da consigliare .

We had the most wonderful experience with our Cesarine, Marzia, in Italy! She guided us through the art of making traditional pasta, and the joy of learning was matched only by the delicious meal we shared with wine. There was laughter throughout as we learned pasta skills, and we left feeling inspired to recreate the magic at home. It was an unforgettable morning, and we’re so grateful for the memories and newfound culinary knowledge!

My sister and I had a great time during our cooking class with Marzia. We learned so much about cooking techniques and the food was INCREDIBLE. Marzia helped us to make various courses and we had the most delicious meal. (I usually don’t love tiramisu but the one we made with Marzia was delicious). Marzia was so kind, should definitely recommend her class for anyone who wants to make an amazing meal and have some fun :)

"My house borders the 'di bandella' nature reserve, where the animals of the forest still live. It is a house on one floor, without architectural barriers, recently renovated: modern and equipped kitchen, guest reception room, oven wood, eat-in kitchen on the veranda outside, where we have the Pratomagno massif in the background. I have a large vegetable garden, where I try to stock up on products for the winter and lots of farm animals. When the time comes I go in search of herbs spontaneous, in order to make the filling for ravioli, and I dedicate myself to mushroom picking."
