Hi from Morena!

Morena gives us a taste Experience dedicated to the flavors of the Como cuisine and some typical Larian dishes; the "Larian Triangle" is the area between the two branches of Lake Como and the southern hills between Como and Lecco. In this area, compared to many traditional foods of Northern Italy, the local cuisine is very diverse: in addition to rice, corn and potatoes, there is extensive use of coarse grains, buckwheat and chestnuts; as far as meat, white meat or venison is preferred and freshwater fish is also often used.This cuisine is characteristically original, particularly for the choice of condiments: the favorites are butter and lard, staples in the Po area tradition, contrasted with the abundant use of locally produced olive oil, as well as linseed, walnut and rapeseed vegetable oils.

Morena was very well organized and very accommodating for my husband who doesn’t have good use of one of his hands. The food we made was delicious and will be easy to replicate at home. Thank you Morena for being a gracious hostess.

Morena M. was the perfect hostess and Cesarine. She was very patient and organised and permitted me to speak in my beginning Italian too. Morena welcomed myself and another couple into her home and provided tuition to make tiramisu and 2 pastas clearly and with patience. We sat and ate our cooking plus tasted one of Morena’z homemade eggplant tarts and homemade Hugo Spritz. This was a memorable and special experience. Thank you so much Morena. Ti ringrazio moltissimo. 😃

We had the most wonderful time!! Morena was a delight, the whole experience was amazing! Much better than a sterile class somewhere. We enjoyed her beautiful home and she was so happy to share her culture and life style. We highly recommend her and our experience.

Morena was a pleasure! She was so kind and make the class so fun. We loved learning the process with her and really enjoyed eating our pasta and tiramisu! We cannot recommend her enough and if we go back, we will be sure to see her again!
