Fun, tasty, and intimate cooking class! - This was such a fantastic experience! The chef walked us through 3 recipes (appetizer, gnocchi, and biscotti) and we worked in small groups to complete them. Chef Ilaria is very experienced, charismatic, and a great teacher. Everything from the explanation to the quality of the food, wine, and people that joined was high quality. It was nice to do an experience where we could also socialize and talk to other travelers. My partner and I would absolutely attend another class with her if given the opportunity.

Italian Chef - This was a great experience. Even my husband, who is not much into cooking, enjoyed it. Was surprised that most of the group were in their 20's (we're in our 70's) and all seemed to have a fun time.

Initiation - My very first cooking experience in Italy was initiated with this professional chef. I loved that we learnt to cook with her but also that she gave us really good tips on product to chose and tips to perfect the meal. Was enjoyable & informative

Memorable Experience in Milan - We really enjoyed the cooking class with her. She explained from recipe to Italian culture in depth and we became more interested in learning more. We made focaccia, gnocchi, and cantucci and they were all great!

Great place to learn Italian cooking. - The chef was great in teaching us different ways to cook using italian food as the base. What we cooked was great and we al enjoyed eating it at the end of the course. Realy recommend this to others to learn about the italuan food culture and to learn new techniques. Overall a great evening where we met a group of nice people interested in food from different parts of the world.

Great experience for home cooks - Great experience overall! We had a great time preparing fresh gnocchi, tagliatelle, and tiramisu, and eating them of course. 3 sauces for gnocchi and tagliatelle were already prepared by the chef. The lesson is for basic knowledge, nothing advanced/professional. Recipes and secrets were shared after the lesson. Coffee, tea, snacks, and wine were served!

Loved it! - We had a great time. The class was small enough to learn and be intimate but big enough to meet others visiting and be interactive. Chef and her assistant were amazing and informative and the lesson was fun and the food was great. Highly recommend!
