- Tagliatelle / Tajarin
- Potato gnocchi
- Tiramisù
Making gnocchi was my Saturday morning task. With grandma we would choose the best potatoes and, as soon as they were cooked, together we would start kneading. The memory is still very present in my mind and also in that of my children to whom I wanted to pass on this tradition of ours. In this cooking class we will learn how to make potato gnocchi. We can dress them with pesto or with a meat and sausage ragout. We will also go on to make tagliatelle, kneading flour and eggs, while dessert will be the most classic of tiramisu, coffee tiramisu. All this in my house that is still grandmother's house where you can breathe the tradition of old-fashioned flavors and from where you can enjoy a view of the Borromean Islands. I am waiting for you in Baveno to share moments of serenity with me.

- Our evening with Gabriella and her husband was so special and a highlight of our trip. They were so welcoming and accommodating. We learned a lot and made some delicious food that we will definitely try to recreate at home. Gabriella’s home has got to be the best restaurant in town - don’t miss out!
- It was incredible evening! The hosts were wonderful, generous, and kind. I would highly recommend this experience to others!
- I had a delightful afternoon with Gabriella, who is kind, warm, and a stellar cook and teacher! We made the most delicious tagliatelle, gnocchi and tiramisu using fresh and simple ingredients. We took things at a perfect pace, and while we worked, she told stories about making gnocchi with her grandmother and so forth, really personalizing the experience. She also gave me tips for substituting ingredients to make some recipes vegan, to accommodate my son. She's very knowledgeable, and it's evident that she loves what she's doing. I now have a wonderful memory of a personal connection I made in Italy, and will think of her and our afternoon whenever I make these dishes in my own kitchen.
- One of the most memorable experiences in Italy! Gabriella was a gracious host and an amazing and patient teacher, especially for hosting 3 Americans and a Swede who all don't speak Italian! We had so much fun learning to make local dishes and learning so much about local wine from her equally gracious husband! We even got to catch the sunset from their cozy home! Highly recommend for anyone visiting Lake Maggiore!
- Gabriella had already precooked some dishes, which was fantastic because we only had to finish the dish while she ecplained the tips and tricks. Lovely italian dishes, great place with wonderful view over the lake, highly recommended!
