Italian Cookery & Supper Evening – Arancini & Risotto, a Taste of Lombardia

Join us for an exclusive Italian Cookery & Dining Experience hosted by Adele Ursitti of Mammalina Cookery School, with special guest Carmela Sereno Hayes from Carmela’s Kitchen - proudly sponsored by Filippo Berio & Riso Gallo. 

Spend a relaxing spring evening immersed in hands-on cooking, storytelling, and a beautiful shared supper inspired by the Lombardia region of Northern Italy. This is more than a supper club - it’s a cookery & dining experience, the perfect opportunity to unwind from busy lives, reconnect with friends and family, meet like-minded people, channel your creative energy, and of course, enjoy delicious Italian food while learning new skills.

Learn how to make Arancini from scratch using premium Riso Gallo risotto rice. You’ll master rolling, filling, crumbing, and shaping your own golden risotto balls to take home and fry whenever the craving hits.

After, you'll gather around the table for a relaxed, seasonal Spring 4-course Italian feast in the beautiful surroundings of Mammalina Cookery School.

Price: £75 per person. LIMITED AVAILABILITY.
