- Excellent pasta-making experience at a beautiful venue with gorgeous views in Praiano Italy. Rocco is a wonderful host and his wife, Carla, a superb chef. We made pasta and a beautiful and delicious dessert with mascarpone, cookies and cacao. This is an experience you won't want to miss. Highly recommend!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
- Rocco was quick to respond and very communicative. He was very prompt and friendly. If you’re looking for a genuine Italian cooking lesson, in a genuine Italian home (not an indoor kitchen but an outside kitchen), with a genuine Italian family, then this is the cooking lesson you will enjoy. We started with bruschetta and their family made white wine, which led into preparing stuffed eggplant (My personal favorite of the day and I didn’t think I liked eggplant!), moving on to their family made red wine while we had fun making two different kinds of pasta of our choosing. While the eggplant was cooking and the pasta sauce and noodles (cooked al dente)as well, we made our desserts which consisted of sweetened mascarpone and mascarpone with cacao, in layers with cookies, drizzled in homemade mandarin juice made from the tree right next to where we were cooking. While our desserts were chilling, we started our meal and enjoyed amazing food and wonderful company. Joining us for our cooking class was newlyweds from New York and three year newly married couple from New England. They were so fun! We finished with their homemade liqur and our homemade desserts. It was amazing. Could not have asked for a better morning/afternoon. Can’t wait to make the eggplant! Thank you Rocco and Carla!
- Incredible experience with Rocco and Carla in Praiano. A highlight of our trip to Italy. We had a relaxing evening in their beautiful garden, drinking homemade wine, making delicious pasta and zuppa inglese. Would recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic cooking class on the Amalfi Coast
- LOVED This experience so much! Karla and Rocco are truly passionate about their Italian culture. Love the fact that 99% of the stuff the stuff they use is from their own garden 100% organic. The wine was delicious and the pasta was so good! I can’t wait to cook all the pasta back home!
- This was an AUTHENTIC Italian cooking experience with all organic ingrediants. Excellent pasta-making experience at a beautiful venue with gorgeous views. Rocco is a wonderful host and his wife, Carla a superb chef. We also made a beautiful and delicious dessert with marscapone, cookies and cacao. This is an experience you wont want to miss in Praino. Thank you Carla and Rocco. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Cesarina from 2018Location: Praiano Languages: Italian and EnglishWe 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!"
