Private cooking lesson!! - It was an unexpectedly lovely and lovely cooking lesson with Maria in Desenzano del Garda. The course took place at her home, she accompanied us with warmth and love and showed us the secrets of pasta and tiramisu. There was a family atmosphere the whole time. We enjoyed it with all our senses!

Loved it five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Really enjoyed the class, I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn how to make pasta and tiramisu with a lovely Italian lady :) Mariolina (Maria) was an excellent host, very welcoming and fun. The time flew by and there was plenty to eat and drink. Thanks for a lovely experience from start to finish!

Sumptuous meal and delightful experience! - My family had the best time at the class! Maria is a gracious and engaging hostess and a wonderful teacher. We enjoyed the hands on class interspersed with delicious appetizers. The meal afterwards was so amazing with ample wine and after dinner liqueurs. This was the highlight of our trip to the area, and I highly recommend this experience!

Successful evening - We had a wonderful day together and everything was excellent, especially the ravioli and tagliatelle and the tiramisu were a lasting experience. Thank you for the good food and the great singing and for letting us get to know Italy and the beautiful wine in such a beautiful and warm way. Greetings from the Paulsen family from Hamburg 👋

Fantastic Cooking Lesson - We wanted to learn how to cook Italian food in Italy and this experience did not disappoint. Our host Maria invited us into her family home and patiently taught us how to make Tagliatelli, Ravioli and Tiramasu. She had also prepared some delicious appetisers so we left having eaten a lot! I would recommend this to anyone with an interest in food, you don't need to be a skilled chef just enthuastic.

Amazing experience with Marina, 100% recommend! - This was undoubtedly one of the best experiences we have ever had! Marina was amazing, she welcomed us into her home and provided wine (made in Lake Garda) and appetisers, delicious salami from Desenzano. Then we got to the cooking, we made tiramisu, ravioli and tagliatelle, Marina was so knowledgeable and we learned a lot! She also gave us the recipes, and different options such as sauces we could make, so we are going to try to make it at home too! We finished off with coffee and biscuits - again delicious, and Marina told us all about the Lake, her recommendations for things to do/places to eat! Marina and her son were so generous and gave us such an amazing experience that will be a lasting memory for us! If you are visiting Lake Garda I could not recommend the cooking class with Marina enough!

Wonderful experience in a private home, instructed my a master. Just be sure to double check the location before booking - We had a fabulous time and learned a lot in the beautiful home of our host, Ada. She greeted us with the warmest smile and made us comfortable in her own home right away. She was informative and patient. We finished our lesson with a lovely lunch of the pasta and tiramisu that we prepared, as well as a delicious appetizer and homemade limoncello. Ada was the perfect host, and we were so grateful for her expertise. The ONLY downside, and why I didn’t give 5 stars, was that when I booked the event, it showed the location as Desanzo Del Garda, the town we were staying in. The day before the event, I found it was actually 20 minutes away from the town, so I had to hire a taxi to get there and back.
