Brilliant performance of Simonetta, extraordinary preparation and best explanations led to fantastic results. We enjoied our meal after cooking very much.
We had such a great time during this class. Simonetta was such a great host, kind and patient with the best ingredients for our cooking class. If you're passionate about cooking and are looking to learn from one of the best in the area, Simonetta is the chef for you!
Simonetta introduces you to her kitchen, full of books, spices, jars full of dried fruit and naturally with her pots and pans hanging from the wall, because there is no room left.
Cooking courses are a full immersion in her lifestyle, a mix of food and culture, but also of practicality. Learn to make dishes which you can easily reproduce at your home, and you will amaze yourselves creating ravioli, fresh pasta, gnocchi, pizza...
Simonetta will teach you the simple but important tricks of everyday cooking, such as how to substitute an ingredient at the last moment, but what really counts is to have a passion for food....and some fresh herbs at hand.
Participants can be from two to a maximum of eight people, all working with the ingredients to create the final dish, all following the various steps and being allowed to taste but above all we aim to have fun.
After the cooking course comes the best time - to eat the food, and so “tutti a tavola”,
