Meet your Chef-Instructor, Veronica Serafini:
Welcome to my Italian cooking class! I come from the heart of Italy, Rome, in the beautiful Lazio region. Growing up, my kitchen was more than just a place to cook; it was a sanctuary where the rich aromas of homemade sauces and fresh pasta filled the air, and the love of family was always on the menu.
I had the privilege of learning the secrets of homemade fettuccine and gnocchi-making from my nonna, a wise and passionate woman from the Marche region. Her hands, weathered by years of cooking, taught me the true art of making simple, yet extraordinary, dishes.
It is this heritage, this blend of Lazio’s elegance and Marche’s rustic charm, that I bring to you in these classes, sharing not just recipes but the soul of Italian home cooking.
Meet your Assistant Chef: Riccardo Birbo
I was born and raised in Rome, Italy. I moved to Canada with my parents, but my passion for cooking has always been a constant in my life.
What started as a necessity to feed myself after school quickly grew into a deep love for the culinary arts. I became fascinated with the dishes I saw on TV and began asking my mom about her Italian cooking roots.
Growing up, Italian cuisine was always at the heart of our home, and I learned many traditional recipes passed down from my grandparents and from the region we come from.
Over the years, I’ve worked in various restaurants, constantly learning and refining my skills. I’m excited to take on the role of assistant cooking instructor and share my culinary skills with others.
