Hi from Monica!
“I love to write, and to read, in fact, books fill my house. I am mindful of the quality of food; I like to cook what I eat; and share the pleasure of the table with other people, friends, and guests. I am involved in the recovery of food surpluses for social solidarity purposes with the Food Bank of Lombardy Onlus in Como, where I live. I try to hand down recipes that are simple, and easy to learn by everyone, and that are connected as much as possible to the tradition of the Larian territory.”

Raviolo, Fettuccine und das Tiramisú waren weltklasse!!! Wir können jedem empfehlen, bei Monica Pasta und Tiramisù zu lernen. Mille grazie, Monica!!!!!!
- This was the highlight of our trip so far. Monica was such a gracious host. Welcomed us into her beautiful home like we were family. My husband and I loved making this memory together. Monica taught us how to make ravioli, fettuccine and Tiramisu. All three were so delicious. If you visit Como then visiting Monica is a must!!!

- Wow this was the highlight of our trip/Honeymoon in Como! We were so surprised by how intimate this whole experience was! It felt like we were invited over for a private dinner with friends!

We enjoyed our class so much as well as having a fun and wonderful cooking class! We cannot wait to share what we’ve learned with our friends + family back home. Thank you Monica for everything!
