“Clara took us to a great market and then back to the kitchen to cook. Clara obviously loves her job and it comes thru in her instruction as the 5 of us worked with her to prepare a meal. We had fun in the kitchen and then ate what we had prepared which was quite good. If you are a foodie then this is what you are looking for.”
Shop Milan’s street market with a chef, then cook classic pasta dishes and tiramisu. Small group, lunch with wine in about 4 hours.
“We weren't sure what to expect in terms of group size but we had the teacher (the wonderful, charming, witty, and knowledgeable Elena) all to ourselves for the market tour. Being from the Midwest in the United States, outdoor market was an incredible wealth of fresh and in season vegetables, fruits, seafood, etc. Elena pointed out many items that were new to us, shared about the traditional Italian market and seafood offerings, and definitely left us inspired to seek out locally grown and in season produce when we get back home (note: we live in Iowa so "summer" is when we can get fresh lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, etc from the…”

It was such a wonderful experience shopping with Anna. And because she knew all of the store clerks well, I felt very welcomed and…”

“Our guide was a lovely young man who has been living in Milan for 1 and 1/2 years and was very familiar with Milan. He was however not much of a shopper, and definitely not a stylist. When it was obvious that we were hoping to shop in Milan, he did his best to guide us, but it was always going to be difficult for him to meet our expectations.”
