Your menu

Every Neapolitan on Sunday morning thanks Ferdinand of Bourbon because they wake up to the smell of ragù cooking for hours; without Ragù what Sunday is it? Gragnano's rigata pasta will be caressed by the noble Parmesan-covered sauce, and the meat that gave it its flavor will go with the expertly sautéed friarielli....Good Sunday to all

: I (76 years old) and living in Amsterdam was in Naples with my 2 daughters for a little father daughter holiday. The sumptuous lunch at an Italian family's home was part of it. We were warmly and hospitably received. The cheese, pasta and meat tasted great. Only the special Neapolitan vegetable was not our favourite. The dessert was tasty It was very much and we really couldn't eat it all.
: Francesco and Eugenia gave my wife and I a fantastic cooking class. They welcomed us unto their home with wine, and taught us to make Tiramisu and Pizza. Everything turned out amazing, and we can't wait to try their recipes in our kitchen!
: This was an amazing experience and we will definitely be making these recipes at home.
: Ho avuto in regalo questa esperienza meravigliosa. Mi sono ritrovata catapultata nel cuore di Napoli, in un palazzo storico, in cui ogni angolo profumava di storia, di vissuto, di amore. Ho vissuto un pomeriggio speciale, grazie a Francesco e alla moglie con cui siamo entrati subito in sintonia, e che ci hanno guidato in un corso di cucina, divertente ed interessante, raccontandoci anche origini e curiosità di ogni singolo piatto. Infine ci hanno regalato un’atmosfera romantica per una cena a lume di candela. Bellissimo! Se chiudo gli occhi, sento ancora il profumo e i suoni della Napoli che amo.
: We had a fantastic time with our hosts! It was great to have an opportunity to speak to an Italian family about their life in Naples rather than going to a tourist site. The food we made was delicious! I have already tried to make it at home. They were good at explaining the steps and helped us out along the way. We had a brilliant time, thank you!

Francesco

Cesarina from 2018Location: Naples Languages: Italian and English

Visiting the historical city center of Naples means passing through twenty centuries of history. The streets, squares, churches, monuments, public buildings and castles are a treasure trove of artistic and historical treasures. Moreover, the aromas of the local cooking are the ideal introduction to a place that can truly enchant anyone. You will also be enchanted when you enter our Cesarino’s eighteenth-century building located in the heart of the city. The structure houses a Vanvitelli staircase, as well as the apartment where Cesarino Francesco lives. His strong curiosity for the culinary arts and meeting his wife, who is also a lover of good food, has led him to experiment with new recipes, without ever forgetting the love and bond he has for and with the local gastronomic traditions. Traditions like the ever- present ragù at Sunday lunch (because, for Neapolitans, Sunday is not Sunday without ragù) and the flavors of the sea in the dishes prepared during the hot summer months (always refreshing, light and delicate).
