What to expect

You'll arrive at the Navigli kitchen and begin with a glass of Prosecco whilst your host explains the family's three-generation cooking legacy. Rolling up your sleeves, you'll knead and shape pasta dough, learning the pressure and technique that separates amateur from practiced hand. Once your fettuccine and gnocchi are ready, you'll cook them in boiling water, then toss with sauces you've chosen and prepared. Between stages, there's time to ask questions and hear stories about how the family refined these recipes over decades. The tiramisù comes together whilst your pasta rests. Finally, you gather around a shared table to eat your creations with wine.
