Caterina

For me, cooking is above all about hospitality, sharing, discovery, and openness. Every dish I prepare is a small invitation: to enter my world, to taste flavors, to exchange stories and smiles. I enjoy experimenting with new ingredients and recipes, but also preserving traditions, because they are the identity of a place and tell who we are. Every aroma, every color in the kitchen tells a bit of me: curious, creative, and always ready to explore the world through food.

My husband and 2 of our friends had an absolutely fabulous time making pasta and understanding more about the food in the area. They were wonderful hosts and we truly enjoyed the way they opened their home to us. If you are on the fence wondering if you should book this experience or not, the answer is YES!! Book this amazing experience now.

Our cooking class was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Italy and an experience we will never forget. From the moment we arrived, you welcomed us like family. Your warmth, kindness, and genuine interest in getting to know us made the experience so special and personal. Thank you for your patience while teaching us. You made every step of the cooking process fun, easy to follow, and enjoyable, no matter our skill level. We learned so much and felt completely at home. The food was absolutely delicious, and getting to prepare it in such a beautiful outdoor setting made the experience even more magical. Every detail was thoughtfully organized, allowing us to relax and simply enjoy the activity. This was so much more than a cooking class—it felt like spending time with friends and creating memories that we will cherish forever. Thank you for your generosity and hospitality. We cannot recommend this experience enough!

We had such an amazing afternoon with Caterina and Fabio. They made us feel so welcome and at home. They truly went above and beyond during the entire experience. Caterina was patient with us and was a great teacher. The class was for any level of cooking experience. It was so special being in someone’s home and learning. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone who is looking for an unforgettable cooking experience.

From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed like family by Caterina and Fabio. The pasta and tiramisu class was wonderful, the food was delicious, and the entire experience felt warm and authentic. What made it especially memorable was the thoughtfulness of our hosts. They learned it was my son’s birthday before we arrived and surprised him with birthday decorations and a small gift. Their son was the same age as mine, and watching them play cards together made the evening even more special. This was so much more than a cooking class—it was a beautiful family experience that we’ll always remember. Thank you for making my son’s birthday so special!

We had a lovely cooking class with Caterina and Fabio. They welcomed us with traditional food which was really kind and tasteful. After that, we prepared our tiramisu and two types of pasta (Ravioli and Trofie). Since it was the birthday of my girlfriend they surprised her with balloons, music, a crown and a candle in her tiramisu. Great hospitality! Thank you very much for this nice experience!
