Shared Experience
Your experience

    As at home is the motto of Cesarina expert Francesca. Designed especially for vegans and those intolerant to gluten, we will make simple and tasty dishes. We will stroll through the villa's vegetable garden, immersing ourselves in the olive and fruit trees. In the kitchen, we will prepare stuffed peppers together with vegetables from the garden. We will also discover an ancient traditional Roman recipe for doughnuts, made with a secret ingredient that makes them unique, even vegan. We will also try our hand at setting a table in perfect Italian style. Each guest will have everything they need for the class.

    We spent the early part of the day enjoying the views as the area is right by the ocean. We then drove up the hillside to the quintessential Italian home we met the most original family. From the moment we met the family they made us feel welcome. I made some silly jokes, and made friends! After 3 nights in Rome, 10 nights on the Mediterranean cruise and two night near FCO, we were ready for a low-key original experience…we got SOOO much more. We got a lovely evening where we helped prepare the food, toured the personal garden where much of the dinner came from and enjoyed an evening al fresco with a garden/seaside view. We found the home full of love and clean! I can say for ALL four of us, it was a 10 outta 10! Grazie madre terra e famiglia!

    Our experience with Francesca and her beautiful family is one we will never forget! We had so much fun, making and eating great food and sharing our culture differences. If you are coming by cruise and have been to Rome and looking for something different to do then this is it! Sharing this experience is unforgettable!

    Francesca è gentilissima e si mangia benissimo. Ci siamo sentiti a casa!

    This a must do event. I have done cooking classes before but the hospitality and love shared by Francesca and her family was amazing. Her home is perfect- exactly as you would imagine in a beautiful local town. Her kitchen was well situated. Her outdoor hosting area was lovely. Then dinner was served in the garden area where local vegetables and spices are grown. It simply was one of the most heartfelt experiences we could dream of. Italy in a bottle. I HIGHLY recommend. I will be back next year!

    Our visit to Francesca was wonderful! She made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. The food was fabulous and we loved the cooking lesson but the best part was being immersed into her beautiful home and family for a few hours. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

    Cesarina from 2024Location: Civitavecchia    Languages: Italian, English, Spanish, French
    Hi, I'm Francesca! Originally from Naples but now living in Rome, I welcome my guests to a villa nestled among olive and fruit trees in the countryside of Civitavecchia. "Those who cook with love nourish more than just the body" – this philosophy guides every dish I prepare. Together, we’ll share the joy of picking vegetables from the garden, while discovering stories and traditions dating back to the early 1900s, offering a unique and authentic experience.
