Hi from Maria Cristina!

Parma is a small but enchanting provincial city with a French air and a great culinary tradition. Splendidly framed by Parma’s beautiful historical center, Maria Cristina welcomes us in her enchanting residence.Here, in this house that gives access to a garden of secret beauty in the back, we have the occasion to meet our Guide who – as she tells us – has always loved to cook, ever since she was a little girl. Her passion for cooking was passed down to her by her mother and her grandmother who, with great mastery, would serve up extraordinary menus of which she holds the secrets today.

: Christina is a generous personality who enjoys sharing her experience and knowledge with others. After having us decide who would take notes (Fred) and who would participate in the hands-on class (Yukari), Christina quickly got to work. She demonstrated for Yukari every step in the process of making the regional pasta specialty, Tortelli, Parmesan Soufflé and Tiramisu and had Yukari execute the steps in parallel. Cristina interleaved the steps of the three dishes to save time, just as anyone at home would do. She moves with efficiency and precision. Cristina even made micro-pizzas on toast as antipasti. Then we got to eat the creations for lunch with a glass of wine! We enjoyed our time with Cristina very much. The class was very informative and a lot of fun. We highly recommend this class with Cristina.
: This was a great experience! Cristina makes you feel at home. Cristina really loves what she does and puts her heart into everything she cooks. The ambience of cooking with family and having a family meal on their home was something to remember.
: I expected a fun culinary class with many people but I for to have a private experience with the sweetest couple on earth, Christina and Enzo! I really loved everything about this class including lunch with the host! I would totally recommend this experience!
: We loved that moment. Cristina was great. We were able to make a dessert and a lasagne while making the pasta and she let us take notes so we could redo the recipe. As well as a good cookery lesson, the atmosphere at the table was great with her husband. We had a wonderful evening.
: Christina and Enzo were absolutely amazing they made my whole family feel at home. The food was really good and very different to what we are used to. They made us laugh and they were so great with the kids. I would highly recommend it to anyone that is considering it.
