    Home cooking at its finest!

    Karen_M, Sep 2025
    From the start, Simona was very helpful with our travel to their lovely home. She and her mother, Carolina, were very welcoming, patient, and so fun! We learned so much and they shared some of their favorite food and recipes that we will definitely make! We came in as tourists and we left as “family”!

    Amazing pasta-making class

    Monica T, May 2019
    I had such a great experience learning how to make tagliatelle pasta with my Cesarine, Morena. She was so kind and welcoming and it was an amazing opportunity to learn more about Italian culture and traditions. I 100% would recommend this experience!
