Enjoy a 3-course Italian dinner at Maison Milano with fire and acrobatics, a complimentary wine pour, and a DJ-led dance finish.
“Great evening with very nice dinner (fish as well as vegetarian dinner was excellent and delicious). Enjoyed the show and entertainment very much, great evening activity! Bear in mind: it does get noisy and crowdy. At my visit there were eight bachelor parties in total, so be prepared for that.”

Music-led fresh pasta class in Milan with aperitivo, piadina, wine, cappelletti, tagliatelle, and tiramisu in a small group.
“An unforgettable culinary experience, Chef Simone’s Rocking Kitchen cooking class was amazing from start. Simone and his sous chef, Mateo, made us feel incredibly welcome with this memorable evening. The playlist was perfect for all genres. Chef Simone’s instructions were clear, engaging, and easy to follow. You use the freshest ingredients, and every detail had been thoughtfully planned. Simone’s clean and inviting home added to the overall charm of the experience. The food we created was absolutely delicious, and the care and expertise Simone brought to the class were evident in every bite. This is more than just a cooking class—it’s a complete cultural and culinary journey. Oh and the…”
Milan’s 2.5-hour home dining with a show-cooking demo, 3 courses, wine, coffee, and a small Cesarine group in someone’s kitchen.
“GYG messed up the communication about this activity, and as a result I was unable to attend.”
A fast Piedmontese dinner in Milan near Porta Garibaldi: Nebbiolo wine, Barolo risotto with Castelmagno, braised beef, and bonet.
“We are a couple with one child and ordered three sets, each consisting of five courses. To start, the waiter served us red wine and bread. After that, we were presented with cold cuts, risotto, beef, and dessert. Unfortunately, the overall quality of the entire set was disappointing, especially the beef, which was tough and lacked flavor. It was not worth ordering. While the waiter was friendly and entertaining, the food did not meet our expectations.”

Milan dinner and wine tasting with Chef Paolo Bodon: small-group 2 hours with cold cuts, VasoCottura, and two paired wines for $77.
“We went to Winelovers last night for dinner and a wine tasting, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. We had the chance to taste their own-produced wines, which made everything feel even more special and authentic. Each wine was beautifully presented and paired perfectly with the food. The dinner itself was fantastic — every course was delicious, well-prepared, and full of flavor. You can really tell there’s passion behind both the kitchen and the wine. What made the night even better was the host, who was absolutely incredible. So kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable — they made us feel comfortable and truly taken care of the whole…”
