La Tana del Riccio

We were treated like family. The hosts were excellent and we had great food as well as conversation. I would highly recommend the class to people who would want an exceptional local experience.

We’ve had such wonderful afternoon and an authentic experience at La Tana del Riccio. Teresa and her family were very welcoming and great hosts to us…. It was just the two of us and they still made such an effort to show us the farm and how to make several dishes which were all very delicious! Having these for dinner with Teresa and Gerardo and tasting some wine from the neighbors made the evening perfect for us! We would definitely recommend this course to all that want to learn about the food and the people from Campania.. away from all mainstream!

My husband and I were looking to get an authentic Italian cooking cuisine and Teresa’s class was jut it and even more! The cooking class take place in Teresa and her husband lovely farm house, they gave us a tour in the house and their surrounding and it was just beautiful to see all the animals. We made cheese from freshly milked milk and it was an amazing experience. The food was excellent with all fresh ingredients. We talked with Teresa and her husband for hours and really felt that they opened their home and heart for us. Would highly recommend!

Teresa is clearly a passionate and excellent cook! Her unique lasagne was absolutely delicious, the pork dish sublime and everything else was awesome. We had a lovely lunch and a really great and interesting time. I am certainly going to try and recreate the lasagne!!!!! Incredible!

I attended an authentic Italian cooking class here with Teresa and her family. It was the perfect day! We picked all of the fruits, vegetables and herbs from her garden, where she had home grown them with her lovely husband. I requested a vegan menu and Teresa was happy to accommodate my requirements. :-) We made various bruschetta toppings...they melt in your mouth! Then gnocchi from scratch, with 2 different sauces...the lemon & courgette one was my absolute favourite! Also, various vegetable dishes cooked with her own olive oil. And a scrumptious chocolate desert. I've been home a month now and have really enjoyed using the recipes and techniques that Teresa taught me, in many of my meals...the flavours have revolutionised my cooking! I'd highly recommend a course with Teresa...she's really flexible with the meals she teaches...before you arrive, let her know what meals you want to make and learn and she'll do everything she can to help...her recommendations are excellent! I saw that she also has some lovely rooms that she runs as a B&B...it's such a peaceful and welcoming place...I'd recommend stopping overnight if you were to do a course...so you can enjoy the garden, the relaxing and the authentic Italian home cooking for a bit longer :-) Thank you Teresa and family, I'd love to visit you again on my next visit. All the best, Sandra.xxx
