    My family and I had such an amazing time at the cooking class with Marco and Roberto. it was so much fun and they had all the equipment for us. The amount of food at the dinner table was perfect and the table looked amazingly set. They had the kitchen looking better than we had it started. We highly recommend Marco and Roberto! Thank you!

    The cooking class with Marco was great. He was very explanatory, welcoming and kind. We ate the best tiramisu ever! Also his house is in a great area in the forest and nature. The location was the most beautiful and all the nature near you (birds, quiet, green)! I will definitely visit Marco again.

    We had a fantastic time cooking with Marco. His communication was prompt, and directions to his house were easy to follow. We created a pasta dish (including a different one for the vegetarian!), a delicious stuffed pepper dish and a very tasty fig tart to finish with. The three adults and the kids (14 & 16 yrs) loved it. The crusty fresh bread and family pressed olive oil was also a winner! There is heaps of room in the kitchen and the other food preparation area. Sitting at the dining room table looking out at the bush while enjoying the food and wine was perfect. Thank you Marco x

    Our group of 5 had a wonderful day with Marco He met us at the market to select a menu and then guided us through the preparation of a 3 course dinner at his home. He was a gracious host, answered our many, many questions and was lovely company while we all enjoyed the meal. We would be very happy to spend another day learning from Marco.

    We recently went to Italy for a family holiday and had never hired a private chef before. Marco was fantastic. He had an extensive list of potential meals and communicated well in advance. He was kind, courteous and everything was doe to an exacting standard. We would definitely recommend Marco and if we are to return we would strongly consider using him again. I still want the tiramisu recipe though! It was simply phenomenal

Driven by a deep passion for cooking, I spent 35 years honing my skills as an amateur chef, delighting family, friends, and colleagues with my culinary creations. Since 2017, I transitioned into a professional chef, pursuing my love for food on a more dedicated path.

My appreciation for cuisine extends to dishes from around the globe, as I believe food serves as a gateway to understanding the rich cultures of different communities.

I hold a strong aversion to wastefulness, especially when it comes to food, and strive to minimize waste wherever possible.

Fluent in Italian, English, and French, I am adept at communicating and connecting with others across various linguistic backgrounds.
