Hi from Mauro!
The pizza baked in a wood-fired oven is just the beginning of a culinary journey. From oven-baked dishes to Parmesan specialties, each bite is a celebration of Italian tradition and passion. The outdoor barbecue becomes the stage for memorable celebrations, while polenta on the wood stove offers comfort and authenticity. In this kitchen, every dish tells a story, inviting you to share the essence of Italian cuisine. Welcome to my world of unique flavors and traditions.

- I tagged along to Italy with my husband for his work. I booked this cooking class as something to do while he was busy. I love cooking and could not have anticipated what an amazing adventure I was about to have. Mauro and Natalia proved to be amazing hosts with a beautiful home. Their flexibility and willingness to learn and teach are what made this experience unforgettable. I was originally booked at a different home, but they had to cancel and I was unavailable the other date they had. Fortunately for me, Mauro and Natalia accepted me as their first guest in their kitchen. They are working to learn English and are very good at communicating. They taught with such ease and are very knowledgeable cooks. This was my first trip a few months after my mom had passed away unexpectedly. I appreciated the distraction from my sadness and felt the love for cooking in their home kitchen. I would love to take my family in the future so they could experience the wonderful cooking class for themselves and I could see Mauro and Natalia again!
- Mauro and Natalia hosted us in their home for a wonderful night of pizza, wine, and conversation! Mauro is an absolute professional and each pizza came out of his wood fired oven perfectly cooked. I already miss hearing his bell ring indicating the pizza is done! My wife and I had a great night and we both agreed it was our best night in Italy! Cheers Mauro and Natalia!
- What a meal! Mauro and Natalia not only welcomed us to their beautiful home but helped us create fabulous dishes all whilst having a great laugh. With the use of local produce, we are able to take home memories and recipes with us. We cannot recommend this experience enough, they are absolutely lovely with great hospitality.
- Mauro and Natalia welcomed us warmly into their home, made the whole cooking experience super fun, interactive and you learn about the food & culture of Parma. It was like being with family! The food was amazing! All of the homemade dried meats, canned vegetables and his specialty main dish where at of this world delicious! We will be using what we learned back home! We finished the evening sharing their collection of homemade liqueurs, all made from their own fruit trees - AMAZING! He grows a pear in the bottle! So cool! We ended with a tour of their land and it is absolutely beautiful! When we are back in Parma we will definitely book with Mauro & Natalia again!!!
- It was amazing experience! I and Clara, my wife, visited Italy to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. In Mauro and Natalia's farm, we could enjoy real Emilia-Romagna style local home-made food together with very kind advise and explanation from Mauro and Natalia. It was great dinner and still we are missing. I would like to strongly recommend the foreign guests should visit there. Thank you so much, Mauro and Natalia!
