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.

Margherita is the BEST! We enjoyed a great meal with flowing wine. Great conversation and beautiful views. We felt very welcomed and learned so much. I would recommend that you definitely cook with Margherita when in Lake Como you will not be disappointed.

This night with Margherita and her boyfriend Matteo was my best experience in Como! They are both such kind and interesting people, and we spent hours cooking, eating, talking, and drinking wine together. Although I had never met Margherita before, she and her boyfriend made me feel so much at home that it felt as if I were getting together with old friends. What a lovely experience to have on a solo trip to Como! Highly recommend.

We had a truly wonderful evening with Margherita and her boyfriend Matteo, learning how to make both original Italian Tiramisu as well as two different sorts of pasta from scratch. We started with an authentic Apperitivo, and after that got to work on the food. Under the kind instructions of Margherita, we learned a great lot about the Dos and Don'ts of Italian cuisine and finished the evening with the fruits of our work, wine and good talks. The most lovely part was the immediate feeling of being at home from the very first second that we entered the apartment as if we've known both for a long time already.

Margherita and her boyfriend Matteo were wonderful hosts. We learned a lot and enjoyed every bit of the experience. It almost felt like we were cooking with friends we'd known for a long time. 10/10 would recommend.

I was very happy with my lesson with Margherita. I wanted to learn traditional recipes and she exceeded my expectations. The class was adjusted to my favorite ingredients and my extended family will be overjoyed this holiday season.
