Learn the why of Italian food - Our host was great. Greates us in a warm manner. Sat with us and reviewed the dishes we would make. Discussed how we would do it and most importantly the why of things. I learned a lot and I have been preparing Italian food from scratch for decades
Great food. Great wine. Great time

A Delicious Day! - We spent an amazing morning trying new cheeses, making fresh pasta, quiche, tiramisu, and drinking a little vino. Margherita is very patient, organized and a clear communicator. She offered suggestions for our remaining time in Como and for our future travels. She is a positive delight to be around. Would happily cook with her supervision again. Highly recommend this memorable adventure!

Unforgettable experience - What an amazing experience! This class was one of the highlights of our trip. Stefania and Vincenzo welcomed us in their beautiful home and made the entire class feel relaxed and fun. We learned to make traditional ravioli and tagliatele from scratch, and the we all had dinner together with amazing wine had conversations. If you're looking for an authentic experience in Como, this class is a must! 10/10 recommend if you're a foodie!!

Deborah is phenomenal in Como - Exceptional class from Deborah. She has a beautiful home and is a superb teacher. She is patient, informative, and gracious. We learned to make 3 pastas and ate them all. This is how we will eat pasta from now on. Highly recommended.

Disappointing experience - The description and photos said that we would be cooking gnocchi, but we ended up cooking ravioli. Anna explained that gnocchi was complicated to make and that she didn't have the right ingredients, so she always makes ravioli. I was disappointed because I really wanted to learn how to make gnocchi. The description and pictures should be updated.
Also, I don't think you can really call it a cooking “class”. Often, Anna didn't tell us how to do things. For example, for the tiramisu, we had to mix the egg whites. There's a technique to keep the egg whites from breaking, but she didn't show us. Sometimes she didn't give us any instructions at all. For example, when we had to make pizza, we had a ball of dough in front of us, but she didn't tell us what to do. She was often on the phone and left us alone at the work surface without any instructions. We didn’t know what to do and were just waiting for her. Instead, the social media girl would tell us what to do. I thought we were going to cook, but Anna did a lot of things herself. For example, for the ravioli dough, I would have liked to use the machine to roll out the dough, but Anna did it and we just watched.
We also had a little aperitif during the “class”, but we were seated in...the garage! It wasn't quite the view of Lago di Como we were expecting…
Besides, we didn't know we would be filmed/photographed so much. It was annoying sometimes and made the whole thing feel fake.

No match to the description or our expectation. - This experience was absolutely not what we expected. Nor what we paid for. Anna and her friend Kasia were very sweet and funny but Anna wore a mouth mask and was therefore very difficult to understand. The aperitifs were tasty and were already ready when we got there.
The facts are that the course took place in a small and warm room (no kitchen) without proper facilities. We had two hotplates and a table and we were sometimes mostly in the way.
The ingredients didn't seem to be ready and most of the parts were already prepared by Anna herself. We made little ourselves and learned little. We made gnocchi with unsuitable potatoes. Turns out it's not the season for gnocchi. So why was this dish chosen? Anna did the cooking of that. One of us stirred the risotto and that's all we've got to say. Mostly we listened and watched. The ragu was ready just like the tiramisu that was ready in the fridge.
We were sitting outside in a deserted courtyard.
Remember that this course costs €179 per person. In total we paid over €1000 for 3 hours of lessons. What we got was disproportionate to what we paid. Not in terms of location, ingredients, class or food. Looking at the description and photos of the workshop on your website then we have received the wrong product. In fact, we should receive a large part of the cost back.
We would never recommend this course. . Anna was sweet but also quite chaotic and this was not a workshop or course. The highlights were the aperitifs and we laughed.
