A Private Chef service delivers bespoke menus and intimate dining in Como, while the Gastronomic and Market Tour combines a local market visit, regional specialties like the Nuvola dessert, flower selection, and a fresh pasta class with hands‑on instruction.
The team collaborates with local producers and market vendors to source seasonal ingredients, and sessions take place in a striking apartment overlooking Piazza Volta in Como. Guests receive hands‑on instruction, taste finished dishes, and learn regional stories and techniques that connect Lake Como culinary traditions with modern preparation.
