Hi from Margherita!

Since I was a child, I have always loved cooking, spending hours in my grandmothers' kitchens and learning all their secrets. This passion has become more than a hobby; it is my way of sharing love and creating special moments. Even during university, I would invite friends over for hearty dinners and unforgettable evenings. My cooking style is a blend of influences from my two grandmothers: Southern Italian flavors and Milanese traditions, combined with tastes discovered through travel and living abroad. The result is a "Nonna-style" – generous, comforting portions with a modern and healthy twist. I put love into every dish, combining tradition and innovation to create meals that make people feel at home while offering something new. For me, cooking is the perfect way to bring people together, create precious memories, and celebrate the beauty of the flavors I have encountered on my journey.

Margarita was the BEST! We had so much fun making pasta and tiramisu ! Her home was lovely and the food was delicious! Plenty of wine and prosecco also! Would absolutely recommend!!!

We, my wife and I had received this wonderful cooking lesson from our sons and their partners for birthday. Together with us six people, a young couple from the US in their honeymoon joined us. We had a wonderful time with Margherita and her boyfriend Matheu. We were hosted in the warm sourrounding of their private apartment and prepared Ravoli, Fettuccine as well as Tiramisu. The recipes came from her nonna. This is why it was so tasty. We really enjoyed our time and loved the hospitality of Margherita. We would definitely book another cooking lesson with her again!

Arquerita was an excellent teacher who welcomed into her home. She went above and beyond as a gracious host. We had a great time.

Our experience with Margherita was simply amazing. She was absolutely delightful, great at explaining the steps, and was extremely helpful. Every member of my family enjoyed our time with her. She inquired about diet restrictions, asked about wine, and then ensured our 18yo had the peach and rose tea he fell in love with over there. She kindly shared the recipes with us after our night was over. Great communication before and after our evening. Highly recommend her class to anyone in the Como area!!

Fantastic! This was a surprise for my partner and it couldn't have gone better. Margherita was a perfect hostess. The apartment is beautiful with an amazing view of the lake. From the very start we felt relaxed and comfortable. The conversation flowed easily and we got on very well. She explained how to cook and I even made pasta! It was a very special evening that we shall treasure for a long time. Highly recommend you spend the evening tasting Margherita's delicious food!
