- This was the most amazing experience we had in Italy! They were both so welcoming, kind, and knowledgeable about the dishes we were making and guided us every step of the way. We shared laughter, conversation, and all had such a wonderful time together. If you are in Italy, I urge you to book this unforgettable 5 star experience with the most amazing hosts! Xoxo Morgan
- An Unforgettable Honeymoon Experience! My partner and I took a pasta-making class in Italy as part of our honeymoon, and it turned out to be one of the absolute highlights of our trip! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family. The setting was dreamy—rolling countryside, rustic kitchen, and the aroma of fresh herbs and garlic in the air. Our instructor was not only incredibly skilled but also warm, funny, and passionate about Italian cuisine. We learned to make everything from scratch—kneading the dough, shaping the pasta by hand, and pairing it with delicious, regional sauces. It was hands-on, immersive, and surprisingly romantic! We sipped local wine, laughed a lot, and sat down to enjoy our creations at the end. The food was incredible, but what really made it special was the experience of doing it together. If you’re in Italy for your honeymoon—or any special occasion—do not miss this! It’s more than just a cooking class; it’s a memory we’ll cherish forever. Grazie mille! 🇮🇹🍷🍝💕
- Our class with Francesca and Luca well exceeded our expectations. They were both incredibly kind, humorous and hospitable. The food was delicious and the conversation was great! We would recommended this experience to anyone.
- My boyfriend and I had an amazing dinner experience with Francesca and her husband. We had never booked something like this before when traveling, so we were a bit nervous at first. However, Francesca and Luca immediately made us feel like old friends and we had an amazing night learning how to make gnocchi and hearing about life in Como. The home made digestifs and Tiramisu were the best we had during our entire trip to Italy. We couldn’t recommend booking this experience more—it was truly one of the highlights of our trip!
- We had an amazing experience with Francesca and Lukas! They communication was good and the meeting point was easy to find. We made 2 pasta dishes that were really tasty and the tiramisu was perfect. They were really helpful in teaching us how to cook the pasta but also very knowledgable about the region. It was great to learn so much about Como and not only cook. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
