Hi from Michela!

Michela is from Verona, she has always lived in Verona, a city of art and love. Her apartment is a few steps from Piazza Brà, in the city center. The hills with its vineyards, Lake Garda with centuries-old olive trees and the Lessini mountains surround the monuments of a city with magical views. Her passion for cooking is a family legacy. Grandmother Laura and mother Bibi involved grandchildren and children in the preparation of long and short fresh pasta, lasagna, tortellini and tortelli, meat main courses with side dishes and desserts. "In the kitchen I try to convey the value of simplicity, but at the same time I am always ready to experiment with new dishes, mainly using the typical products of the Verona area."

We had a fabulous time at this pasta making class. Michela had everything well organised, and she is a lovely person with a passion for cooking. The food we cooked was delicious.

The first time doing anything like this for me so wasn’t sure what to expect, pleasently surprise, Michaela was a fabulous hostess, she made us welcome from the very start , the food was wonderful and lots of handy hints and tips for us to use when back home . She is a special lady and I wish her all the best, when I return to Verona would definitely meet up with her xx

Michela e Moreno ci hanno fatto sentire subito a casa. Ci hanno accolto con un aperitivo a base di prodotti locali e c'è stata subito sintonia tra loro e tutto il nostro gruppo. Michela è riuscita a trasmettere la passione della pasta fresca anche ad uno del gruppo che non voleva nemmeno provare. Abbiamo chiacchierato tanto con loro e la cena era buonissima! Grazie ancora ad entrambi per la bellissima serata!

Una serata da ricordare  - May 2025

I had a wonderful morning with Michela. She arrived promptly at the meeting point and greeted me warmly. She took me to a traditional patisserie near to the castle, which I wouldn't have found without her local knowledge. She took me to some other traditional Veronese food & drink establishments, explaining the city's history as we walked. After about an hour's tour of the city, we went to her apartment to make the gnocchi. She was very good at explaining and demonstrating each step, and it was easy to pick up the technique. It was a treat to sit at her table & eat together, while we talked more about Italian society & traditions. It was a very pleasant and insightful morning, and I have come away with new knowledge & skills. Very grateful: thank you Michela.

Michela made us feel at home from the minute we walked through the door of her lovely home. She made 3 wonderful dishes which we sat down and shared with her. Very informative cooking demonstration as well. Would highly recommend this and would go back in a heartbeat.
