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.

Amazing experience, delicious fresh food and wonderful host! We are a family of 7 and all loved our time with Margherita. We had wine, fresh melon and prosciutto to start and then made risotto, fish and fresh pasta finishing off with tiramisu. Highly recommend this experience and booking with Margherita! Her place was easy to find and clean and tidy. We had a large work table which was later transformed to a beautiful dining table to eat at. Margherita made the experience fun and everything was delicious! Highly recommend!

We had such a wonderful experience! Margherita was so friendly and welcoming. This was not only our first cooking class experience, but our first time in Italy. Margherita was a great teacher & very patient with us as we learned. The food was delicious! We had so much fun & appreciate Margherita opening her home & teaching us.

We had a wonderful time at a cooking class in Margherita’s home, learning to make fettuccine, ravioli, and tiramisu from scratch. The experience was fun, and she explained each step clearly. Everything we made was delicious, especially the ravioli, and it felt special to enjoy the meal together in such a welcoming setting. Our group had 6 people, and it didn’t feel like we were strangers by the end of our meal. We would highly recommend this class to anyone looking for a intimate and memorable culinary experience.
