From Milan to the world — a story of food, people, and authentic Italian hospitality.
How It All Started
Pasta Pietro was born from a simple idea: opening our kitchen to the world. What began as small workshops with friends quickly became one of the most authentic cooking experiences in Milan. Today, travelers and companies from all over the world join us to cook, laugh, and share the joy of Italian food.
About Pietro
Born and raised in Milan, from generations of true Milanese, Pietro has always had food and hospitality in his DNA. Despite being an only child, his family home was always full of people — a place where cooking and sharing meals meant connection. From his parents he inherited not just a love for fresh pasta, but above all a passion for people.
After traveling the world, Pietro realized how often Italian cuisine was misunderstood or simplified. Pasta Pietro was born from the desire to share the real thing: authentic recipes, warm hospitality, and the joy of cooking together. Friends sometimes joke about his noble roots — Pietro comes from the historic Visconti family — but in his kitchen everyone is treated like family, no titles needed.
Adapting During the Pandemic
In 2020, when travel wasn’t possible, we launched our first online pasta classes. From New York to Tokyo, hundreds of people joined us live from their kitchens. Teams, families, and groups of colleagues cooked with us on Zoom, proving that pasta can connect people across any distance.
What started as a temporary solution is now a permanent part of Pasta Pietro: today, our virtual corporate workshops bring teams together across the globe.
Our Kitchen in Milan
Unlike generic tourist cooking classes, our events take place in a real Milanese home. The atmosphere is informal and welcoming — just like visiting a friend, but with pasta and wine always on the table.
