チェザリーヌによるヴァレンナ湖畔のイタリア語料理教室

Cooking class was exceptional!! Patrizia was phenomenal! Loved the class was held in her home. Patrizia was warm and welcoming.

My husband and I had the pleasure of participating in a hands-on cooking class overlooking beautiful Lake Como. Our hostess / instructor, Patrizia, was so kind and gracious as well as an excellent instructor. We were a small group (3 couples) and she made sure that everyone had the opportunity to participate in making our two types of pasta and tiramisu. The size of the group enabled her to give each of us personal attention. After preparing our pastas and tiramisu, Patrizia invited us to sit and relax at a beautifully set table in her picturesque garden overlooking the lake. I would highly recommend Patrizia's class to anyone seeking an authentic pasta making experience!

Great cooking class with incredible view of Varenna! They are so hospitable and the food was so good!! The only thing to note is that this house is not in downtown Varenna like the Viator address suggests. You will need a cab to the house, walking is impossible

Patrizia was wonderful, and the views were stunning. We had a great time at the class, but the logistics left a lot to be desired. The name of the class and the short description indicate that it is in Varenna. It was not in Varenna, but in Bellano. The fine print does mention it could be in either city, but we were not notified of the location until the day before. This gave us very little time to scramble for transportation arrangements, taking hours out of one of the few precious days of our vacation. The first 10 taxi companies I called no longer had availability for the next morning. All of us who attended had a difficult time finding transportation to the class. If we had been told from the beginning it was in Bellano, then we would have been able to arrange in advance and with much less difficulty. Poor Patrizia the instructor herself was our only contact, moreover, and when I provided this feedback she said (rightly) that the logistics/communications were not up to her and referred us to the generic Cesarine booking email address. Again, the experience once we got there was 5 stars. The logistics, however, make it impossible to give a 5-star rating.

Patrizia was so welcoming and so knowledgeable about everything we were making!! She was an amazing host and put on a wonderful class. She welcomed us into her beautiful home and was great about getting everyone involved in the class! We would love to take it again!

We had a completely fantastic experience at Patricia and Luca's. The course was so fun and educational at your kitchen. Finally, we enjoyed delicious food in the garden with a completely fantastic view over the mountains and the lake. This can really be recommended.

Our hostess was a lovely, kind lady who taught us how to prepare Italian dishes with patience and grace. We learned so much and had a great time!

My husband and I had an absolutely exceptional experience making pasta and tiramisu in a beautiful local home overlooking Lake Como! 🇮🇹✨ From start to finish, this was one of the highlights of our trip. The view was absolutely breathtaking, and the setting made the experience feel so authentic and special. We learned how to make fresh pasta from scratch and were amazed by how much delicious food we were able to make! Everything we made was delicious, and the experience was even more special because of how accommodating our host was. I am pregnant, and she went above and beyond to make sure I could fully enjoy the experience by preparing a delicious vegan tiramisu just for me. It was such a thoughtful touch and truly meant so much! Our host also took SO many beautiful photos throughout the experience, which gave us wonderful memories to take home with us. She was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and helpful, even providing great recommendations for taxi services that can be booked in advance to make getting to the home easy and stress-free. We also used WhatsApp to communicate when we arrived and she came to our location to guide us to her home! If you are visiting Lake Como, I cannot recommend this experience enough! It was delicious, personal, beautiful, and truly felt like getting a glimpse into authentic Italian life. An unforgettable experience that we will be talking about for a long time! ❤️🍝🇮🇹 Thank you so much for having us Patrizia!

Book it! This experience was the highlight of our time in Lake Como. Patrizia warmly welcomed us into her beautiful home and taught us to make tiramisu and 2 pastas with comfort and ease. The food and wine were delicious. Her view from her home up in the Bellano mountains is breathtaking! We absolutely recommend this experience!

Monica was excellent; we enjoyed every minute of cooking with her. The food was excellent & she had a great personality.
