Alessandro and rubina were the perfect hosts! We can not recommend this cooking class enough. We were treated like family and made to feel so welcome in Alessandra's stunning home. The view of Mt Vesuvius was breathtaking. We were spoilt with processco and appetisers on the balcony. Then had a hands on experience making ravioli 2 ways, gnocchi and delicious tiramisu. The best part of the lesson was learning how to make delicious food that we can cook for our family when we get home. To finish the lesson we were treated to alessandra's home made limoncello and a coffee. Rubina and alessandra , we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are so grateful to have experienced this day.

Today, we had one of the most amazing cooking classes ever! From the moment they picked us up from our accommodation to the time they dropped us off, everything was perfect. Our hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel like part of their family in their beautiful home. We kicked off the experience with a delicious deep-fried Nutella ravioli, setting the tone for an incredible culinary journey. We then made and tried three different types of pasta, with the gnocchi being our absolute favorite—so soft and flavorful! To top it all off, we finished with the classic tiramisu, which was simply divine. The Prosecco and red wine complemented the meal perfectly. The entire experience was not just about cooking but about enjoying good food, great company, and learning from passionate hosts. This class was more than we could have asked for, and we’re excited to bring these recipes home to share with our friends and family. Highly recommend this to anyone visiting the area!

One of the best experiences we’ve had while travelling, the host was so welcoming letting us in her family home and was super knowledgeable! We can’t wait to take these recipes home and share them with our own family.

This was the best experience of our entire trip! We loved how joyful and fun Alessandra and Ruby were! Incredible hosts that made us feel welcome from beginning to end. They deserve more than 5+ stars. This was the best food we've had in all of Italy— it was SO GOOD, AND we got to take part in making it! We went with a group of four and loved the entire process. Alessandra had a beautiful home and had a willingness to share and go above and behind the delicacies of her garden — figs, grapes and lemons! WOW! We made gnocchi, ravioli and tiramisu - the most mouth watering dinner we have had. Thank you, Alessandra!
