Hi from Sandra!
"I'm an altamuran transferred to Milan. I delight in preparing everything from pasta to bread to biscuits, ranging in my recipes between meat dishes, fish, legumes and vegetables. I enjoy continually experimenting with new dishes and am curious about every kitchen in the world. I have been keeping my yeast for several years. I prefer raw materials to km 0, of growers of Lodi. I'm an empathetic and sunny person; I like to have people in the house and take care of them at the table. Passionate about interior design, I'm very attentive to the care of my home because I like that my guests have a visual pleasure in addition to the taste."

- Our cooking experience with Sandra was AMAZING! She explained each step and helped when needed. We loved learning about her personal story and hearing about her family farm. Her house was welcoming and a great vibe for a personal cooking class. We would recommend Sandra to everyone! Such a great way to spend an evening in Milan.
- Sandra's apartment is a beautiful reflection of her passion for soulful art and music, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and peace that perfectly complements the cooking experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed into her warm and inviting space, where the focus was on the joy of cooking and learning. Sandra is not only a fantastic cook but also an attentive and engaging teacher. She took the time to carefully guide me through every step of the pasta-making process, from mixing the dough to crafting delicate ravioli. Her detailed explanations made it clear that fresh, homemade pasta—using only the finest ingredients—is much easier than it seems. We also had the chance to make a rich and creamy tiramisu from scratch, which was a real highlight. The hands-on experience was both fun and educational, and I left feeling confident that I could recreate these dishes at home. If you're looking for an authentic, intimate pasta-making class with a gracious host, I highly recommend popping in to Sandra’s for an unforgettable experience
- Sandra was great. We really were relaxed in her home. The music was pleasant. She made it look so easy! We really enjoyed her lemonchello. We have taken a cooking class every trip we make to Italy. This class was one of the best we have taken.
- Sandra was a great host for the pasta making class. Her home was clean, warm, and inviting. Sandra showed us authentic pasta making techniques. There was plenty of delicious food and drink for lunch or dinner. We all had a lovely time. We booked this fairly last minute for a rainy day activity, and we’re so glad we did. Highly recommend!
- Ho fatto in corso con la mia nipote - era un esperienza per fare ricordi. Sandra sa come creare un ambiente in cui puoi sentirti a casa. Le istruzioni erano semplici e includevano molte conoscenze di base. In mangiare era squisito.
