A Fantastic Four Hours

Published on Oct, 2024

My wife and I looked at the weather forecast for Stresa and saw three days of straight rain. With that in mind, we sought something indoor and found this cooking experience. We are glad we did. Gisella welcomed us into her home and we immediately got busy making dessert, spinach pasta for our main course, and then an appetizer. It was so fun making the pasta (and who knew I was so GOOD at it!) Then we sat down to eat. As Gisella cooked the pasta and finished the sauce, we enjoyed the appetizer and some bread and wine. But the pasta was to die for! Delicious! As we finished the pasta, we were joined by Gisella's husband, who declared our pasta delicious! Gisella, a photojournalist, documented out experience and sent us pictures of our wonderful, exceptional experience. Grazie mille, Gisella!

Home made Ravioli!!

Published on Sep, 2024

My wife and I enjoy unique experiences when we travel. Being invited into a local’s home to cook and chat was very special for us. Gisela was a wonderful hostess. She said most people want to make Pasta, but we asked about one day out for ravioli’s. She has premade the veal pate that would be the meat for the raviolis. But we did almost all the rest of the prep under her supervision. Her home was walking distance from our hotel on the main strip in Stresa. It was just a wonderful evening. Highly recommend this event.

Great experience with Gisella, learn real Italian cooking!

Published on Aug, 2024

Gisella was a great chef and teacher. She made some amazing food and we learned a lot. Great family dining experience when all the cooking was done and we really appreciate her hospitality.

Cultural Cooking Experience

Published on Jul, 2024

Incredible experience. Beautiful home with incredible wood furniture pieces and chandeliers. Took time to not only teach us the techniques but also explained the cultural significance of the dishes we made. One of the best things we did at Lake Maggiore

Fantastic Experience!

Published on Jun, 2024

This was an incredibly lovely night! Gabriella and I made pasta and tiramisu while talking about all sorts of topics. She was was so sensitive to my food preferences I listed and it was my birthday and her husband snuck away and bought be a birthday to have after dinner! It was so lovely and I recommend it to everyone.
