Delicious Evening with Wonderful and Talented Italians - Wow, what an absolutely amazing experience to learn from and dine with Carolina, Simona., and Antonio (Carolina's very kind husband) We were welcomed into their beautiful home with open arms and loved every minute of the experience. Carolina is an incredibly talented chef and explained what she was doing with every step. Simona speaks English eloquently and was able to translate everything with ease. We learned about the history of Italy and many wonderful things about the Italian culture. The food was absolutely delicious and wasn't like anything we had ever tasted before. If you are in Italy and want an authentic and lovely Italian experience, I highly recommend spending an evening with the Falcos.

Chefs use traditional Italian recipes for lunch and dinner. - Lake Como's hosts bring visitors together for an authentic Italian dining experience. The chef is a key person, who brings traditional methods to bring pesta recipes on local food tours. Special pasta dishes are made with legendary ingredients for cooking and dining. Salad welcomes guests, who eat a traditional American thing to precede their main course. By the way, chocolate desserts such as Tiramisu are good to finish off your lunch or dinner.
