Tasting of traditional dishes

Shared Experience
Your experience

    Take a seat in my home, located in the heart of the city of Como, a stone's throw from the Duomo, and savor the traditional flavors of the lake.

    Try real polenta topped with Valtellina cheeses and enjoy the tenderness and juiciness of "escaped birds." End on a high note with Crema del Lario, a recipe now lost and jealously handed down by my family. There are traditional dishes that no restaurant can offer you, but a Cesarina can. I'm waiting for you to taste the true flavors of Lake Como.

    Rave review for our cooking class with Beatrice! She is so friendly, warm and an expert chef. We did make two pastas and tiramisu but also learned how to make two simple sauces and Italian culinary culture. My husband and I had a truly delightful learning experience. Cannot recommend her highly enough - don’t miss the opportunity to spend an evening with Beatrice!

    We had a great experience with Beatrice and I would highly recommend this class to anyone! Beatrice was kind, a wonderful teacher, a fabulous chef and a fun storyteller. My friends and I had a fabulous time and have already tried to remake one of the recipes we learned! It was a great, unique experience to take part in during our vacation!

    Cesarina from 2018Location: Como    Languages: Italian and English
    "It is indescribable ... breathtaking Lake Como must be seen ..." This is how Cesarina Bea welcomes us to her cozy home in the historical town center of Como, located within walking distance of the lake. Como is a fascinating city full of charm and history, as is Bea’s cooking - "my cooking speaks of the past" – uniting tradition with a strong creative flair.  Tradition and creativity are the characteristics that distinguished Bea during her participation on the sixth edition of Bake off Italia, a cooking show dedicated to preparing traditional Italian sweets. Now, after this extraordinary event, our Cesarina awaits us for an unforgettable culinary experience...
