Founder, Laura Sanvito, is a true native of Lake Como, she was born and grew up in the area and has been living in the city of Lecco on the eastern shore for almost 20 years now. Like many locals of the area, she got to know the charms and hidden gems of all the lakeside towns and villages.
Laura grew up in a house where cooking and tasting was a daily experience. Her mother Maria Rosa baked a cake every single time she got stressed, being a working mother in the seventies – she baked a lot! And Laura and her friends tasted and learned.
Her father was determined that she also learn about her Sardinian heritage, so as school ended in June, Laura was sent to spend 3 months at her grandmother’s on the paradise island of La Maddalena in the Costa Smeralda region where Laura learned the art of making fresh pasta, breads and pastries.
It was the women in her family who helped her fall in love with Italian culinary culture.
Having spent many years of her life working in finance both in Milan and abroad, a profession which she still enjoys, she decided to follow her dreams. She and her husband moved back to her hometown of Lecco and started a family. She wanted her children to grow up among the beauty and nature of the beautiful Lake Como region.
Lecco is just one of the many cities in the region where one can take advantage of its small dimensions, its “town life” and close relationships. It’s a place where people don’t just live in the surrounding environment, they live it by skiing or hiking in the nearby mountains or enjoying the wonderful lake views.
