with few curiosities about Villa D\u2019Este food, chef and celebrities.<br \/>\nDo you know that Villa D\u2019Este organizes cooking lessons with the Executive <strong>Chef Luciano Parolari<\/strong>, also known as <em>the King of Risotto<\/em>? It could be a wonderful occasion to enjoy a wonderful experience during your staying!<br \/>\n<ul class=\"list2 list_color_pink\">\n<li> Did you know that Niki Lauda loves Champagne risotto? It is his favourite dish. One day before a competition he said to the Executive Chef Parolari: \u201c&#8230; Be careful! Easy on the Champagne!&#8230; tomorrow I am racing!\u201d<\/li>\n<li> Did you know that the Chef Luciano Parolari also cooked for <strong>Pope John Paul II<\/strong>? He was told the Pope did not eat very much, but it seems he liked the Risotto with vegetables and complimented the Chef!<\/li>\n<li> Did you know that Sir Elton John\u2019s cook took cooking lessons from the <strong>Chef Parolari<\/strong>? Some years ago, Sir Elton John was staying at Villa Versace in Moltrasio &#8211; Lake Como-  and had a dinner at Villa d\u2019Este.<br \/>\nHe was so positively impressed that he asked if he could have his cook learn how to cook pasta! She stayed for 15 days and learnt 15 different ways to cook pasta!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/wedding-planners-in-villa-deste-lake-como.jpg\" alt=\"wedding-planners-in-villa-deste-lake-como\" width=\"475\" height=\"713\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10761\" srcset=\"\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/wedding-planners-in-villa-deste-lake-como.jpg 475w, \/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/wedding-planners-in-villa-deste-lake-como-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What else can I say as  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/planning\/wedding-planners\/wedding-planner-lake-como.html\" title=\"Lake Como wedding planner\">wedding planner on Lake Como<\/a>?<br \/>\nFor sure I cannot teach you to cook as the <strong>Chef Parolari<\/strong> of Villa D\u2019Este, but I can definitely help you to plan a wonderful wedding on Lake Como, at Villa D\u2019Este, Villa del Balbianello or at one of our enchanting Lake Como venues.<\/p>\n<div class=\"success\"><div class=\"message_box_content\">If you need further information on Lake Como weddings, please don&#8217;t hesitate to <a class=\"icon_text icon_email pink\" href=\"mailto:como*italianlakeswedding.com\">CONTACT ME<\/a>!<div class=\"message_box_space\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<blockquote class=\"wp\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/lake-como-wedding-planner.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/lake-como-wedding-planner.jpg\" alt=\"lake-como-wedding-planner\" title=\"lake-como-wedding-planner\" width=\"250\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-10772\" srcset=\"\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/lake-como-wedding-planner.jpg 250w, \/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/06\/lake-como-wedding-planner-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/lake-como-weddings\/introducing-alessandra-fabi-lake-como-wedding-and-event-planner\/\">Alessandra Fabi<\/a> is the Italian Lakes Wedding\u2019s coordinator for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/lakecomo\/lake-como-weddings.html\">lake Como<\/a> area.<br \/>\nShe is located in Milan and she has a deep knowledge of the territory. <\/p>\n<p>If your idea of wedding is refined, sophisticated and with a special attention to details, she\u2019s your perfect wedding planner! <\/p>\n<p>Alessandra makes each client feel unique and she treats each wedding as if it were her own.<\/p>\n<p>For any information about wedding at Villa D&#8217;Este on Lake Como please <a class=\"icon_text icon_email pink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.italianlakeswedding.com\/blog\/contat-us\/\">contact Alessandra Fabi<\/a> &#8211; Lake Como wedding planner<\/a>.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is always a great pleasure and honor for a wedding planner working on Lake Como talking about the extraordinary beauty and history of Villa D\u2019Este, the most famous Villa on Lake Como.
