A Heartwarming, Authentic, and Unforgettable Cooking Experience Near Como!

I booked this cooking class with Simona and Karolina to celebrate a friend’s birthday, and I have to say — it turned out to be one of the best experiences I’ve had in a long time! From the start, Simona was incredibly communicative and thoughtful. She even followed up with me on WhatsApp when I didn’t reply on the platform to make sure all my questions were answered. She provided clear instructions for how to reach the venue, which was easy to find and only about 10 kilometers from Como city center. For those without a car, they even offer a convenient pickup service from Como Central. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed into their beautiful and inviting home. Simona and her mother, Karolina, immediately made us feel comfortable and part of their family. The class was not only hands-on and well-organized but also deeply informative. Both Simona and Karolina are extremely knowledgeable — not just about the recipes themselves, but also about the cultural and historical background of each dish. Throughout the session, we enjoyed engaging conversations — they were genuinely interested in our stories and happily shared their own. Despite the language difference, Karolina’s warmth transcended words. Her kindness and motherly care made us feel right at home. We even had the pleasure of meeting their adorable toy poodle, Carlotta, who added even more joy to the afternoon! The experience was beautifully curated from start to finish. We began by preparing desserts and then moved on to making fresh pasta. Karolina prepared the sauce herself, made from their own home-grown tomatoes, and served us steaming hot pasta while we enjoyed red wine at the table. Every bite was absolutely delicious — a true taste of Italian home cooking. Overall, I would give this experience a 10/10. It was heartwarming, authentic, and full of joy. I will be recommending this class to everyone — friends, family, and anyone visiting Como. It’s an absolute must-do!
A fabulous experience shared with our extended family hosted by the most welcoming hosts (mother & daughter).

We were greeted by Simona who, by the way, not only is a great communicator on WhatsApp but helped us with the car park machine. We were then introduced to Simona’s Mum Carolina who spoke a little word of English but clearly had the knowledge and the know how. Simona & Carolina gave us some clear instructions on how to make raviolis and were also very supportive, especially as this was our first ever attempt. If I were to be over critical, I think, to make the experience complete, we could have also made the actual filling. We then enjoyed the fruit of our labour as Carolina cooked the raviolis with brown butter which was delicious. I guess the cherry on the cake was the adorable 2-year toy poodle called Carlotta!
Great pasta making course 🍝

What a lovely experience with Simona & Carolina. I now feel confident I could take my new skills home to the UK and make some great pasta. They also have a very cute dog 🐶

Truly amazing experience. Simona and her mum were very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. The kitchen setup was very convivial, with all that we needed to hand. Simona was very good at explaining and giving encouragement when things didn’t go quite right. My whole family would recommend this experience. And let us not forget Charlotta.

We had the absolute best time at this cooking class. We brought our 5 and 7 year old and were worried 3 hours would not keep their attention but they loved every minute. Simone and her mother were amazing hosts and the pasta we made was amazing!! We had the best time and would suggest it to everyone of all ages!
One of the best ways to spend an afternoon in Italy!

Simona and Carolina were the best! 5 STARS! We loved their patience and they explained things in a way where we could re-create these wonderful dishes. We learned so much and can’t wait to make all of this incredible pasta and yummy tiramisu when we get home. Their Italian hospitality was first rate, the views were magnificent and we highly recommend!
A family feel!

There are no words to describe how grateful we are for this experience. My husband and I booked this experience last minute and we're so glad we did, a sense of family all around. Simona and Carolina are master teachers with a true love for each dish. They had patience and detailed each step so perfectly! We could not be happier and would welcome to return the favor if they ever come to the states! A truly fantastic experience!!

Our cooking class with Simone and Caroline has been one of our most cherished memories in Italy. The daughter/mother duo are the nicest people and so patient with first time pasta makers. Our dinner included homemade ravioli, polenta and tiramisu. Not only did we make a great meal, we made great friends in the process. Go to this cooking class!!! You won't be sorry

DELICIOUS.!! After we prepared dinner , we sat and enjoyed it ....paired with a great bottle of Chianti... in a lovely dining room overlooking the Alps. We were warmly welcomed into their home by Carolina, Simona and Antonio and can happily say that we made three new special friends.
