Shared Experience
Your experience

    Welcome to our home on the picturesque Amalfi Coast, where history and beauty come together, creating one of Italy's most delicious culinary traditions. Join us for an unforgettable culinary experience. During our cooking class, we will begin with a welcome appetizer, prepared with fresh produce from our garden, artisanal cheeses and homemade bread. The main part of the class will be dedicated to the preparation of fresh pasta. We will guide you in creating a filled pasta (ravioli, tortelloni or candy), varying according to the season, and we will also make a long pasta, such as mafalde. To end on a sweet note, you will learn how to make the original delicious tiramisu recipe. We look forward to having you in our family!

    We did Rocco & Carla’s cooking class and enjoyed it! It was an amazing class - we learned so much, had a lot of fun, and felt right at home with them. Almost every single ingredient used was from their own garden/animals or a family member’s. They also send you the recipes afterwards, my husband and I are excited to make them at home. Do this class if you’re looking for an authentic experience instead of a tourist trap. Most amazing class on Amalfi Coast and we will absolutely do it again!

    Our cooking class at Be Genuine Cooking Class in Praiano was one of the most special experiences of our time on the Amalfi Coast! Carla and Rocco were absolutely fantastic chefs and, even more so, two of the kindest and most welcoming people we met during our trip. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel completely at home. We had such a wonderful time learning from them, laughing together, and enjoying the process of preparing delicious Italian food. They taught us so many new cooking techniques and shared their knowledge and passion for Italian cuisine in such a genuine and personal way. What made the experience even more memorable was how generous Carla and Rocco were with their time and their stories. We left not only with new recipes and skills, but with memories that we will forever cherish. If you are visiting Praiano or the Amalfi Coast, we cannot recommend Be Genuine Cooking Class enough! It was truly a highlight of our trip, and we feel so lucky to have met Carla and Rocco. Grazie mille for such a beautiful and unforgettable experience! ❤️🇮🇹

    This was the best experience we had on the coast. They went above and beyond for my fiancé and I. Aside from the amazing food Carla taught us how to make, her and her husband have the biggest hearts in all of Amalfi. They truly made sure that we were taken care of even outside of the cooking class. Carla was SO good at making pasta, she showed us all of the ways to make different shapes. Her garden was full of fresh herbs. Rocco came down to grab us from the drop off area. They went above and beyond for my fiancés proposal. If we ever come back, I will be calling our new friends up right away. Thank you for everything.

    Carla and Rocco are truly the sweetest family, and this was hands down one of the best experiences my husband, Julièn, and I had during our honeymoon in Italy. We booked a private cooking class at their beautiful home, and from start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. Rocco even came to find us so we wouldn’t have any trouble locating the house. From the moment we arrived, he made us feel like family. He welcomed us with the most delicious homemade wine (I’m still begging him to bottle and sell it someday!), and his warm, funny personality instantly made us feel at home. Their backyard is absolutely breathtaking, with incredible views and beautiful fruit trees all around. It felt like stepping into a dream. Carla was an amazing teacher. She showed us how to make fresh pasta completely from scratch in such an easy, fun, and approachable way. She was patient, encouraging, and answered every question we had. She made sure both my husband and I had the chance to learn every step, and she created such a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. It honestly felt like cooking with family. One of our favorite moments was getting to meet their adorable daughter at the end. It was such a special surprise, and we loved spending time with all of them. We truly didn’t want the class to end. The meal was incredible, the flavors were to die for. The homemade dessert, their delicious zuppa inglese—was absolute perfection. This wasn’t just a cooking class; it was an unforgettable experience that became one of the highlights of our honeymoon. Carla and Rocco made our trip so incredibly special, and we are already talking about coming back. Every time we visit Italy, this will be at the top of our list, and next time we’re bringing our friends with us. If you’re looking for an authentic Italian experience filled with incredible food, breathtaking views, and the kindest people you’ll ever meet, this is it. Thank you, Carla and Rocco, for welcoming us into your home and hearts. We’ll never forget you!

    Cesarina from 2018Location: Praiano (SA)    Languages: Italian and English
    We are in Praiano, an enchanted village in the heart of the Amalfi Coast, the perfect place to create dishes that reflect tradition and authenticity. Here we are welcomed by Carla and Rocco who since childhood, have experienced the world of cooking first-hand, through studying traditions and spending evenings sitting around the dinner table. For them, cooking is not just passion, it’s  a lifestyle. Their experiences in the restaurant world, have given life to their project: to combine gastronomic passion, traditions and genuine food cooked with the produce that they have grown or even fished themselves. "Following family recipes and passing them on to our guests is our goal!"
