• Via Giuseppe Ripamonti, 7/a - If a quick, tourist-style activity is what you’re after, this might not be the right fit.

This unique experience unfolds in a Milanese home, where small groups gather to learn authentic Italian cooking as it is genuinely practiced.

Meet Rafael — a former professional chef who chose to create a more intimate setting, allowing participants to truly grasp the essence of cooking, beyond just following instructions.

The session begins with a tasting of meticulously selected olive oil and balsamic vinegar, accompanied by artisan bread and wine — not merely as a formality, but to appreciate the flavors.

Participants will then craft a traditional tiramisu and fresh egg pasta from scratch.

No shortcuts. No pre-made ingredients.

The techniques learned here are practical and reusable — not just a collection of recipes.

The experience concludes with the preparation of two sauces:
– A well-balanced, classic pomodoro
– A Parmigiano Reggiano sauce that is a novel experience for most

Finally, everyone gathers to enjoy the meal together — as it should be.

Small group. Genuine cooking. No compromises.
