This was the highlight of our entire 4 weeks in Italy. It was such an authentic way to get to know Italy and Parma. Mauro had such joy when cooking and teaching people how to cook. To top it off the food was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend to anyone - a must do.

This is as genuine experience as one could hope for. Cari’s and Augusto welcomed us into their home and the time together learning about local food and culture was tremendous. I highly recommend spending an evening with them.

It was wonderful being invited into Paola‘s home and getting to experience recipe from her family. We had a wonderful time both preparing and enjoying the food as was as the conversation with you and your husband. It was certainly a great way to end our day in Parma.

It was a wonderful experience learning the Italian ways to make pasta. Cooking with a local makes all the difference. We had a great time learning from David’s S. Make sure to arrange a ride to your place. There may not be trains traveling to your destination.

We had a great time cooking with Catia and her husband. They were gracious hosts and treated us like family. It was fun getting to learn about the different recipes and traditions in Parma! I also got to work on my Italian which is always a plus.

Such a beautiful experience! We felt so welcomed—like part of the family. It was more than a cooking class; it was a true dive into Italian culture, flavors, and hospitality. Unforgettable!

What can I say? Mauro and Natalia are the most delightful and magnificent hosts! They patiently showed me how to make perfect tortelli, tagliatelle and tiramisu, all of which were beyond scrumptious. Mauro has an amazing collection of wines in his cellar, and he even makes his own liqueur. Did I mention he has a coal burning oven where he makes his own focaccia? What more can anyone ask for. At the end of the evening I was so full I could barely move, but didn't want to miss out on anything. Apart from learning how to make these delicious dishes, the best part of the evening was getting to know this lovely and welcoming couple. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting the Parma area.

We we’re welcomed into their home as if we were long time friends. Christine and Enzo were warm and enthusiastic. Enzo gave us a tour of their incredible garden. The food was marvelous, the atmosphere homey and the company fantastic!

Our host was exceptional!! Lisa & Max made our anniversary so incredible- it really felt like we were going over to a dear friend’s home for dinner. I highly recommend booking this experience!

My husband and I had such an amazing experience with Cristina. She was so warm and welcoming and opened her home to us! Cooking with her in Parma in her kitchen was so very special. It took me back to my grandmother's kitchen. Food was amazing and the company was equally as great! I highly recommend to anyone visiting Parma and wants to learn how to cook an authentic Northern Italian meal!

This was one of the best food classes i have ever done. Paola was gracious in her beautiful home and we got expert instruction on making pasta by hand. Great fun. Delicious food.

This is a very intimate tour inside the home of Christina, a traditional cook with the presence of her own mother. Displayed are Christina’s mother’s pots and pans on the wall above a traditional wood pizza oven. All original recipes were indexed and carefully preserved. Enso the husband of Christina is a jovial presence that knew to stay out of his wife’s kitchen during our lesson and join us with our completed meal. The actual experience of being in a Italian home for a cooking experience is the best tour I could have dreamed of. I am excited to replicate the cooking of vegetable cake and tiramisu, in my own home with friends and family.
RICHARD_J, Apr 2023
Christina was an excellent host. My wife and I had a ball learning how to cook Italian. Would recommend highly. Great authentic experience in her home. Afterward, we had a great supper with she and her husband. Lots of laughs!

Corso di cucina in ambiente casalingo. La proprietaria di casa è stata un'ottima maestra ed è stata molto piacevole nelle conversazioni...la sensazione è stata quella di stare nella cucina della nonna! Splendida!
