Shared Experience
Your experience
We will stroll through the villa's vegetable garden, among olive and fruit trees, to immerse ourselves in nature before entering the kitchen. Together we will prepare zucchini alla scapece, a fresh and traditional appetizer of Neapolitan cuisine. We will continue with fresh pasta for gnocchi, which we will dress with crispy eggplant, artisanal provola cheese from a local dairy and fragrant basil. We will close with a typical Roman dessert: ciambelline, following an ancient recipe with a secret ingredient. Each guest will have everything they need to participate in the lesson with Francesca, our Cesarina of the heart.

- One of the best days on our holiday! A must do if you are in the area!
- I thoroughly enjoyed learning Civitavecchia recipes from Francesca. Delicious also and Im Very happy
- 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!

Cesarina from 2024Location: Civitavecchia Languages: Italian, English, Spanish, FrenchHi, 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.
