Shared Experience
Your experience
A charming house on the hill facing Portofino, where you can prepare pesto in a mortar while admiring the sea, enjoy the legendary freshly baked Ligurian focaccia with a view of Portofino, relax with an aperitif by the pool, and share the preparation of fresh pasta. No experience would be complete without tiramisu and limoncello, made with the fragrant lemons from my garden. I’m ready to welcome you and can’t wait to share this experience with you. Let me know what you think!

- An unforgettable experience! We had our cooking class with Elisa and Marcello — and the lovely Roberta translated everything for us with so much warmth and care. Their home is absolutely beautiful, full of soul, and you immediately feel like you’re part of an Italian family. Almost all the ingredients came straight from their garden — and you can truly taste the love in every bite. They were kind, funny, helpful and genuinely interested in making the experience perfect for everyone. They even made sure that the members of our group who are gluten- and lactose-intolerant could still enjoy the full Italian experience — and they did! We spent hours there, and I honestly don’t know where the time went. It felt like being welcomed into a family. I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone — wonderful people, beautiful place, delicious food. A total dream.
- Prima di qualche settimana fa non conoscevo le Cesarine e ho scoperto questa rete grazie ad uno Smartbox. Appena arrivati siamo stati accolti da Elisa e Marcello nella loro splendida casa, con vista mare sul Golfo di Portofino. Sono stati veramente ospitali e ci hanno da subito fatto sentire a nostro agio. Abbiamo iniziato con un abbondante aperitivo a base di spritz, focaccia genovese, focaccia barese, salumi e formaggi. Come primo piatto abbiamo mangiato ravioli grandi di barbabietola, ripieni di boraggini e ricotta, e conditi con burro, salvia e parmigiano: squisiti! Di secondo filetto con patatine al forno: buonissimo! Il tutto accompagnato da ottimo vino Dolcetto. Come dolce, invece, ci hanno assemblato sul momento un ottimo tiramisù. Infine caffè e ammazza caffè. È stata veramente una meravigliosa esperienza e non vediamo l'ora di tornarci!
- Words cannot describe how wonderful our experience with Elisa and her husband was! They welcomed us with open arms. We learned how to make a traditional dish to her husband’s native Sardinia, focaccia and tiramisu. In addition, they prepared a beautiful aperitivo and a surprise eggplant parmigiana. We enjoyed conversation with each other where we learned about them and their lives in Italy and vice versa. Their home was so cool and unique as well, we could stop admiring in awe! We CANNOT recommend them anymore to anyone looking to attend a dinner with new friends!
- We had an amazing evening with Elisa and her husband! We’ve been travelling through Italy for the last week & our meal at their house was one of the best so far! She was so kind and patient with us, made sure to answer all our questions and treat us like family! This was our favourite night of the trip. If you’re thinking about booking, just do it! Thank you Elisa for a wonderful evening
- It was like visiting my Italian family (that I don’t actually have). ☺️ We ate, we drank, we laughed. It was a great night enjoying great food and Italian family. We are so blessed that Elisa and family hosted!
