5.00My husband and I booked a pasta making class during our stay at Sulzano. We got directions to the house which was very easy to find. On arrival we got a warm welcome from their little dog. We had an amazing time learning how to make fresh pasta and pesto and a delicious tiramisu. Elena was the best teacher and gave us lots of encouragement. We ate what we made with Elena and her husband over a couple of glasses on wine and really enjoyed their conversation and hospitality. This day proved to be the highlight of our holiday and we can’t wait to try the delicious recipes that Elena sent us after our visit. Definitely recommend you book if you are in the area you won’t regret it.
Italy at its best!

5.00A fantastic experience with a combination of cooking knowledge and Italian hospitality. Elena welcomed us to her home and made us feel like part of her family preparing dinner and dessert for a family gathering. It was fun, a great learning experience but also a feeling of being part of the family together with Elena and her very nice husband (who also gave us great tips on where to go on our continued trip in Italy. We would be happy to come back. Thank you Elena! / Joakim, Jeanette and Ulf

5.00Elena, her husband and their dog Leo, were absolutely wonderful. I had no idea pasta could be so good! Simply delicious! We came home and ordered the pasta maker and guitar, found the 00 flour and other fresh ingredients and had a pasta making Mother's day with our kids! We need a little more practice, but Elena was a patient and kind teacher. Love to them all!

5.00This pasta cooking class well exceeded our expectations. Elena was so kind and taught us how to make authentic pasta, a cherry tomato and arugula topping and delicious pesto. To top it off we made delicious tiramisu. It was really bonus to be in her home and actually sit down and have the meal with Elena and her husband. Highly recommend!

5.00Highly recommended! We had a lovely time at Elena’s cooking class- she explained everything clearly and gave us tips about other dishes as well. We experimented with two of pasta and a tiramisu. After we finished, we had a nice lunch with her and her husband. It felt much more than a cooking class- a personal experience, in a beautiful setting. As a bonus we also got to meet their dog :)
