Hi from Anna!

Cernobbio is a quaint village nestled between the splendor of Lake Como and the nearby mountains. An area in which nature, history and art are inseparably connected. A place that manages to evoke innumerable emotions, images and literary memories, from Plinio to Foscolo, from Stendhal to Manzoni."That branch of Lake Como ..." is therefore the perfect opening words to present Anna, our Cesarina, who welcomes us to her splendid home, surrounded by greenery and with a view, of course, of the lake. Anna tells us how her Cesarina adventure began: "everything started a bit for fun. We organized dinners with friends, voting for the best dish. Then with a friend, we started organizing themed dinners and now, with the support of my mother, who is an excellent cook, I'm a Cesarina!"An excellent Cesarina, who loves to cook dishes full of 'flavors from the lake,’ accompanied by fresh vegetables from the garden. She then alternates these wonderful fish dishes with fanciful recipes created using ingredients from the nearby mountains.

I would give 100 stars if possible- Anna, Marie, Carlotta, Terry, and Alesia were not only top notch chefs, but became family by the end of our trip. I have never experienced a more welcoming, professional environment and I would recommend them to ANYONE visiting Italy and wanting to learn more about the local cuisine. They were extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond by recommending other excursions and things to see while on our trip. Could not recommend Anna’s course enough!!!!

My fiancé and I had an amazing experience with incredible views. Everyone was very welcoming and made us feel right at home. Even to the point that they drove us home to avoid the heavy rain. Highly recommend the class!

Anna is an incredible host! My boyfriend and I had such as great time. Her and her family were welcoming and fun, they made us feel right at home. We made pizza, pasta and tiramisu--which tasted amazing. Would 110% recommend!

The highlight of our trip. My wife and I had a wonderful evening with Anna who provided so much more than a lesson in cooking. We had a wonderful night full of great conversation and amazing food with tons of laughs. She brings an Italian motherly energy that just makes everything fun. She has an amazing spirit, one that my wife and I, will not soon forget.
