Intimate, craft focused cooking experience

If you want an experience where they do everything for you this is not the one to choose. This is truly an Italian family home and kitchen where you will make several courses from fresh pasta and veggies to fish and dessert. The hosts are incredibly friendly and clearly passionate about their craft and making a comfortable but authentic atmosphere. When gramma arrives to help it’s the sweetest thing. She doesn’t speak a lick of English but will encourage and help throughout the day. I definitely recommend this over a more commercial larger experience where they want to take you to a tiny market and charging more. We had a very small group of seven people, and it was perfect. The food was outstanding and we left full and satisfied. The location is quite quaint as it’s right on the waterfront overlooking the beach.

The real deal

We have had many cooking classes while traveling in Europe. This class was a real experience- not entertainment, but a home cooking experience. Manuela was amazing—flexible with last‑minute requests with lemon tiramisu and cauliflower dishes! Shared so much about *why* and *how* good Italian food works and is made. Good tips on whisking the tiramisu and kneading the pasta dough. The swordfish rolls were amazing. We were inspired by the whole experience. We will definitely make them at home as soon as we get the recipe.
