A True Taste of Italy with Alba - This class was such a highlight of our trip! We learned how to make pasta and tiramisu, enjoyed prosecco while cooking, and shared a glass of wine once the food was ready. Alba was the perfect host — patient, kind, and very clear in her explanations. She made sure everyone felt included and even captured photos of us while we cooked. The group we shared the evening with was wonderful, and it felt like we were all old friends by the end of the night. Alba also gave us local recommendations for our next destination, which made the experience feel even more personal. Couldn’t recommend it enough!

Must cook with Chef Ilaria when visiting Milan - All level of cooks will enjoy this cooking class. Chef Ilaria was such a patient and gracious host. The class only had 8 students so it was a very intimate and enjoyable session. The class three hours flew by and the food we made was delicious.

Excellent cooking experience - Thank you to Ilaria for a wonderful experience. We attended Ilaria’s kitchen as a group of 4 (two pairs of sisters) and enjoyed an engaging and informative lesson. Ilaria was a great teacher and we enjoyed learning new techniques from her. Our menu consisted of bruschetta, gnocchi with sauce & biscotti cantucci. The experience lasted approx 3 hours which included some initial snacks and refreshments, the cooking lesson and then eating our cooked meal with some complimentary wine. I’d recommend this lesson to anyone looking for a fun and interesting experience in Milan. It is well suited to budding chefs regardless of experience, a couple of our group have little cooking experience but managed with the session. Thank you Ilaria!

As advertised, but too bland for a true foodie - The event was exactly as advertised. Small class size and everything was hands on. Authentic cooking style and pasta making but the food was bland. I guess it caters to everyone but not tasty. The chef was friendly but taking two personal calls during the class was rude. I would not recommend this class for true foodies.
