Gian was such a wonderful host. He taught us how to make 3 different pasta dishes. All were delicious, especially the pesto ravioli! We learned how to make a simple, but delicious bruschetta. He also taught us how to make a tiramisu as individual desserts. So simple, yet so delicious. We were in his lovely apartment in Milan. We had Aperol Spritz and wine with the meal. One of the best experiences we have had while traveling. I highly recommend this experience.

Itinerary
You will be welcome in a cozy Italian home to discover how to easily prepare delicious homemade Italian recipes, including vegan and vegetarian ones. I will share with you the secrets of my grandmother and my family to easily prepare delicious homemade meals: tortelli, fettuccine or spaghetti, rigatoni, garganelli, and other typical types of pasta with wheat flour with eggs or water. We will also prepare the classic bruschetta with a Sicilian touch, followed by my special tiramisu made with Sicilian ingredients. We will cook together, enjoy what we have prepared, and have a relaxed and fun time around the table, sharing stories and talking about food - one of the My Saves topics of the Italians! I will also be happy to share tips and stories about Milan and my homeland, Sicily.

Very nice host, the workshop was perfect and the food delicious
Amazing experience. An absolute must do!! So worth the money. I’ve done ones before in very large groups with no atmosphere and no ownership over what you made and this was the complete opposite. Would do it again!
So worth the money. Host friendly and very engaging. My husband and I loved it. Can’t wait to get home to start making pasta!!!
It was amazing!! We had the best time. Guidance was lovely, host was lovely, food was lovely. Would definitely recommend!
Gian is so friendly and welcoming. My friends and I had the best time learning from him. I would definitely recommend booking this class.
Gian (who owns the course) was a very nice and kind person. He explained everything very well and was very patient. The food was incredibly delicious, we were thrilled and highly recommend it. The course room was extremely beautiful and we felt very welcome. We would come back again and again.
Very friendly host und very good food. It was a cozy atmosphere. Also got some trivia on the italien culture. Big recommendation.
Amazing class with Gian! We learned so much and ate delicious food. We will definitely be making pasta at home!
Great way to learn hands-on how to make pasta, bruschetta and tiramisu. It was a great opportunity to discuss some of the different aspects of 'la cucina italiana' - with our host, also sharing some info of our own traditions (Finland).
Gian is an excellent cook. Prior to out activity he sent detailed instructions about location/meet up making it easy to find. He also shared information about his favorite restaurants in Milan which was much appreciated. Afterwards Gian sent all recipes to us. We have already recreated his pesto at home. Delicious. The only reason I didn’t give this five stars is that for us the activity wasn’t a stand out for our trip. That may just be because my daughter and I aren’t into cooking as much as we should be. Gian did an excellent job he will have you make the pasta from scratch and everything tasted great.
Gian was very responsive and accommodating. The class was fun and we even get a written copy if the recipe.
Very enjoyable evening. Chef’s knowledge and teaching skills excellent. We were fully involved in all aspects of preparing and cooking our meal. Food was very tasty, and a good combination.
Great experience! The host was so kind, welcoming, and enthusiastic! You could tell he really loved what he does. Would recommend!
I absolutely recommend taking a cooking class with Gian. He is a very welcoming and lovely host, and above all, an amazing cook. He welcomes you into his beautiful home, in a small group, to cook pasta, Sicilian tiramisu, and absolutely wonderful bruschettas. I'm still drooling just thinking about it. I had been trying to make pasta for five years without success, but thanks to him, I made my first successful pasta yesterday. I'm so happy.
It was fun and now we know how a pasta machine works and the dough works. It was also very tasty and we had a lovely evening.
We had a great time We cooked a lot of things.Gianfranco explained us well with good products. We tasted and talked about many things. I recommend activity and very friendly person Again thank you
