Testimonials

"Meeting Chef Nicoletta was enlightening for me.

I began my journey into plant-based cuisine with her and then continued by taking all of her online courses; mind you, when I say "all," I really mean "all," over 40 of them.

Her recipes are always well-constructed, extremely clear, and the results are guaranteed; so no disappointments.

And what about the taste! Incredible.

Chef Niki, step by step, guided me through her cuisine, filled with professionalism, passion, unusual flavors, beautiful dish presentation, and above all, so much love."

Roberta Rossi

Her plant-based and natural cuisine is not only professional, but also reflects her personality.

I'm grateful to her!"

Gabriella Rota Stabelli

"Her lessons have allowed me to refine my cooking skills in technique, flavor, and presentation, but they have also helped me understand what I want to achieve and express when I create a dish.

Beauty and Love are the words that come to mind when I think of Chef Nicoletta Matrone. I met Chef Niki through social media in 2020.

She immediately won me over with her smile and bright eyes, the joy and passion that radiated as she prepared her dishes with care, elegance, and technique. I attended her courses and was very satisfied.

Her dishes combine technique, quality ingredients, emotion, and a return to tradition and innovation.

I later had the opportunity to meet with her for professional reasons and greatly appreciated her openness and transparency."

Michela Tuti

I am forever grateful to Chef Nicoletta Matrone for teaching me so many plant-based recipes that have been a huge hit with my family and friends, and for showing me that you can live and eat healthily and deliciously with plant-based cooking.

Before meeting Chef Nicoletta Matrone, I was afraid to try a plant-based diet. I was never good at cooking, and I thought vegan cooking was very complicated, laborious, and time-consuming to prepare.

However, by attending Chef Nicoletta Matrone's courses, I've learned many delicious, quick-to-prepare dishes, from starters and main courses to desserts, cheeses, bread, and many others.

These allow me to eat healthily, first reducing and then eliminating foods of animal origin. Now I have a healthier and more environmentally friendly diet.

Sandra Castelli

"Chef Niki's plant-based cooking classes have improved my skills. The unique recipes have made me and my guests happy.

I met Chef Nicoletta Matrone in 2021 on social media. I was looking for something different to improve my plant-based cooking.

I enthusiastically participated in several classes surrounded by the colors and aromas of distant and magical lands. Chef Nicoletta knows international plant-based cuisine.

I learned new recipes from many countries around the world: India, Africa, and Japan. I learned to make chutneys with plant-based cheeses and to create delicious sugar-free desserts.

Over these years, I have also been fortunate to find a connection and sensitivity."

Eva Tetamo

"Chef Nicoletta was a real discovery. She showed me that plant-based cuisine is healthy, tasty, and easy to cook.

I wasn't looking for simple cooking classes, but a comprehensive Academy that would teach me exceptional, healthy, and easy-to-cook plant-based dishes.

I love the flavors, the surprises, the beauty, and the freshness hidden in every bite.

Chef Niki has managed to give me all of this."
