What To Expect

Head to the meeting place where you'll meet your chef-instructor for the day. Then stroll over to the cooking and eating venue for this cooking and eating extravaganza. The cooking school is set in the center of Verona and is the perfect venue in which to craft a delicious Italian meal.

Listen as the instructor starts with the basics of Italian cuisine and emphasizes its simple yet elegant flavor profiles. The simplicity of the cuisine lets the ingredients speak for themselves. During the course of the instructional segment of the day, make a plethora of delicious dishes such as tomato-topped bruschetta, fresh pasta, and risotto. Finish off with a classic Italian dessert such as tiramisu, a sponge cake laced with liqueur and coffee and layered with cocoa and sweet mascarpone cheese. Everything is made from scratch, and your passionate chef will help you every step of the way.

When the meal has been made, pull up a chair at the table and tuck into the food you just helped create paired with wine from the nearby Valpolicella region. At the end of the class, you’ll be given a booklet with the day's recipes, so you can recreate this Italian meal at home for family and friends.

If you are in Verona, DO NOT MISS THIS! 3.5 hours of fun and food!

Christina is a fantastic chef, teacher and person. There were only three of us, so our interaction with her was very friendly and engaging. The facilities are open, roomy and very professional. The food we made was “squisito”! It was an absolutely wonderful experience, and we hated to leave when it was over. Christina made this experience fun, interesting and extremely memorable.
