This menu is characterized by its simplicity: a few dishes, but of high quality, expertly paired. The Parmigiana is an elegant simplicity, an almost unique dish. The tagliatelle paglia e fieno will be handcrafted, as will the cookies perfect to accompany the zabaglione. Learning these three recipes, seemingly simple but with extraordinary effect, will be a unique and enjoyable culinary experience, providing great satisfaction.
We, a part of four very much enjoyed cooking with Monica at her home. We learned a lot about the Italian culture of food. It was a wonderful experience making Tiramisu and pasta from hand and also seeing and making Vitello tonnato sauce from hand. A some what negative point was the level of knowledge of the English language as two in our party do not speak English therefore we translate quite a bit. Overall we enjoyed our time with Monica and learned more about the Italian culture and way of living.

Our host, Monica, was lovely! The experience was marvelous! My husband and I met Monica at an agreed location in Asti (easy to find), and then walked to a local open air market to shop for produce for our meal. After, she drove us to her beautiful home to share a cooking lesson (pasta, chocolate stuffed peaches, and saucy-vegetable bruschetta - YUM!) in her gorgeous kitchen and then ate the delectable meal with her lovely son around the family's table. The advice, the laughter, the ability to improve our Italian language skills, and the joy of cooking with a local in her home was a memory we will never forget. We HIGHLY recommend cooking with Monica! We have been to cooking lessons before, and this was by far the most exceptional!

Our experience with Monica was absolutely amazing! We'd recommend to everybody to have a session with her. She's incredibly welcoming, nice and the food is simply beyond this world. We're very grateful we had this experience!

Samen pasta maken was een heel leuke ervaring en we kregen goede ‘inside tips’. We werden warm ontvangen door Monica, het was een heel gezellige voormiddag en lekker lunch.
