					  We spent the better part of a day traveling from  Stresa to Marco's kitchen for an interesting and fun cooking experience.  We are two couples approaching our eighth... read more decade.  Marco is very personable and welcoming.  Also met his family in their lovely home and surroundings.  It is literally being in the middle of the woods.  He suggested a menu based on our tastes and everything was ready to be prepared when we arrived.   We made pasta and sauce along with veal rollups stuffed with ham, sage and cheese.  Simmered in an additional tomato ragu.  The highlight was the chocolate torte with homemade toffee and a chocolate ganache.  And he also provided copies of the recipes.  Highly recommend!

					  A visit to northern Italy would be incomplete without a visit to Marcos idyllic kitchen nestled within the lush Italian countryside. I was sceptical at first (having never attended a... read more cooking course abroad) but Marco ensured our family of different experience levels were able to learn, indulge, and enjoy a special experience together.

Once we arrived, Marco presented us with a range of produce options and talked us through the process over some welcoming espresso. We first began by prepping our Amaretto biscuit cakes, then a masterclass in homemade pasta, followed by a main hearty dish of veal. 

Not only was the course deliciously informative, but it was a cherished memory of our holiday. 

Thank you Marco!

					  Marco was such a nice host, very patient with our levels of cooking, and answered all questions we had about food and Italy in general! For the menu, he asked... read more a couple days in advance what we would like and adapted a 3 course menu for us: ravioli filled with mushroom ricotta, veal as the main dish (Involtini), and for dessert - classic tiramisu. 

We had a wonderful time learning from him and eating the delicious food. We stayed from 10a to about 4p so I would recommend blocking out a large portion of the day for the activity.

Great hospitality and unique ex

Unlike most other cooking classes where you only learn one dish I learned 3. All of them were delicious and I definitely can replicate them at home.

					  My wife and I had a fantastic day learning how to cook with Marco. He taught us how to make homemade Pasta, Involtini and Tiramisa, and we all sat down... read more and had a great meal together with everything we created. It's hosted at his home up in the hills, and made for a really personal cooking experience. We'd highly recommend it!

					  We gathered with friends at a villa outside Como to spend Christmas together and high on my list for our visit was to hire a local chef for an authentic... read more dining experience for our group. Chef Marco hit it out of the park! He was wonderful and easy to communicate with to arrange a custom menu and arrange the details. He then came to our villa and cooked and prepared a stunning 4 course meal that had us all so full and so impressed. We are still in awe of his amazing gnocchi and out of this world tiramisu. If in the Como area taking a class or enjoying a meal prepared with Chef Marco is a MUST!
