Lezione di Pasta e Tiramisù a Casa di uno Chef a Milano

The cooking class with Rafael was absolutely fabulous! Before we started, Rafael gave us a lovely bit of history about Italian products and explained how to identify good-quality products according to the systems and standards in place. It was really interesting and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere was also incredibly cosy and homely, which made us feel comfortable straight away. My sister and I don’t drink, but Rafael was able to offer us a great alternative that we really enjoyed, which was such a thoughtful touch. The recipes were simple and easy to follow, and we were able to get involved and be hands-on throughout the class. The food turned out absolutely amazing and tasted even better! Rafael was very chatty and friendly, so there was never an awkward moment. He was extremely knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what he does, which made the whole experience feel relaxed, fun and authentic. Thank you, Rafael, for such an amazing experience!

Ik heb zo’n ongelooflijke leuke avond gehad!!!! Op zo’n ontspannen sfeer. We hebben enorm veel goeie info gekregen over de kwaliteit van producten, die ik zeker nog lang ga meenemen. Zeker om in Italië zelf pasta te maken in zo’n authentieke, gezellige, huiselijke omgeving is iets dat ik nooit meer ga vergeten. Onze chef is enorm intelligent en zalig om naar te luisteren. Beste pasta die ik ooit heb gemaakt en gegeten! Zeker een aanrader voor als je in Milaan bent en op een authentieke manier wilt leren om pasta te maken en ondertussen wat cultuur wilt opsnuiven.

Het was een leuke ervaring in een kleine setting. Beetje jammer dat we in een groep zaten samen met 6 vrienden. Daardoor voelden we ons wat afgezonderd. (was leuker geweest als er meer stellen waren, meer gemengd gezelschap). Maar de kok was enthousiast en betrok iedereen bij de bereiding en je kon ook zelf aan de slag, het eten was erg lekker. En na afloop krijg je ook nog de recepten mee naar huis.

We had a great night cooking pasta and drinking wine together in Milan. Chef made us welcome in his home and comfortable chatting through the cooking process right to the end where we enjoyed delicious pasta and tiramisu. The chef was very passionate about food and cooking. This showed throughout! He explained things well and made it interesting with great tips! Would recommend booking for something different when visiting Milan :)

It exceeded our expectations. The setting itself was special - a typical Milanese home rather than a commercial kitchen, which made the whole experience feel much more personal. The chef gave us his full, focused attention throughout. He explained the ingredients in depth - how to recognize quality products and even shared some of their history. We got to taste an excellent olive oil and balsamic vinegar, which was a lovely touch. After that, we moved on to making tiramisu and fresh pasta from scratch, step by step, at a relaxed pace. Nothing felt rushed, and we really got to enjoy the process and learn properly. Overall, a fantastic experience - highly recommended for anyone visiting Milan who wants a hands-on, genuine taste of Italian cooking.
