My husband and I rarely cook. We can barely boil water. Aurora and Lucrezia are both classically trained chefs who took us into their own kitchen at home and broke the recipes down, making it so simple yet delicious - we couldn’t believe the meals we made. This was such a special experience and I can’t recommend it enough. Cooking Tips and tricks to last a lifetime !! we actually can’t wait to have a dinner party for our friends when we get home to show off the recipes we learned. Grazie mille!!!

The guide is a professional and full of knowledge of which she shared in perfect English. The market tour gave us new valuable insight of the variety of Italian vegetables, fish and fruits. In addition many tips on how to prepare it. The following cooking class gave even more knowledge and details of the Italian kitchen and how to make pasta, gnocchi, parmigiana and tiramisu. Gracie mille for a perfect day!

Strolling through the Milanese market, as Lucretzia explains the various foods and regions was amazing. And, that was just the warm up for the main course! Cooking with her was such great fun. We learned so much, and then enjoyed the fruits (read: fresh pasta) of our labors. This was a highlight of our entire trip to Milan.

Aurora and her daughter Lucrezia were fantastic. The market tour was fun. We got to know the local stuff sold in Italy and how to use the ingredients. Very easy to arrive from Duomo by Metro. We then took the Metro to their home place, not very far. Both of them were very kind, involved us in cooking ourselves the various recipes, they gave us lots of tips. The atmosphere was nice and relaxed like being at home. They speak well English. Even organized candles on the Tiramisu to celebrate our daughter's birthday. We highly recommend taking the full package, you will not regret it.

Extremely professional and fun. The market tour was surprisingly professional, with the guide adapting the level of explanation from general knowledge about Italian cooking to the difference between varying species of tomatoes to those who were really deep into cooking. The cooking class itself included multiple useful tips even for those with previous Italian cooking background. The team both being extremely professional and with excellent English. Highly recommended

Hello! I just got back from Italy and I cooked a dinner with the recipes I learned from Aurora and Lucrezia, and I realized how much I learned in a few hours. I truly recommend this experience!

My dad and I did the Market Tour and Cooking Class with Aurora this August, and it was fabulous. We learned the ins and outs about the market we visited, and she even purchased some figs for us to try! At her home, she welcomed us like family, and she guided us through making spinach and cheese stuffed ravioli, osso bucco, eggplant parmesan, and tiramisu. It was all wonderful! I just wish we could go back and cook (&eat!) all over again.
