Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
An experience different from the usual preparation of fresh pasta. With this cooking class you will get to prepare typical Genoese savory pies: rice and chard pie, the typical and well-known torta Pasqualina (following my great-grandmother's recipe), and finally potato and green bean meatloaf. Three dishes that we will then go and enjoy in the garden (in spring/summer) or directly in the hall of my house. There will be no shortage of mixed meats and cheeses and typical Genoese focaccia made by me.
At the end of the experience I will give you a booklet with the executed recipes so that you can repeat them at home without difficulty. I look forward to seeing you in my home with a welcome drink, a time of getting to know each other and sharing before we get to work.

- Andrea was a most wonderful host. He was such a well mannered and informative teacher and we learned not only about how to properly prepare a delicious local meal but also he taught us the history of the meals and of the area. The entire experience was truly perfect and we all highly recommend for you to book a class with Andrea.
- Andrea was a charming host. He was a great knowledgeable teacher and taught me things I will never forget. It was a pleasure to share an evening of great food and cultural exchange. Highly recommended.
- Great activity, we learned a lot and our meal was great :)
- When we got there Andrea showed us the garden and picked fresh produce to cook with. The food was sooo good. I couldn’t decide what was my favorite. Everything was so perfect, we will come again when we’re back.
- we had such an amazing night with Andrea and his family. we started off by making tiramisu, ravioli, and truffel (not entirely sure how to spell this pasta) which were all phenomenal. his english was great and so we’re his instructions. his mom was there helping us as well as his dad, who were both lovely people. we cooked, laughed, and told stories until it was time to eat when more of his family joined us. they were all so wonderful as they welcomed us into their home and shared a meal with us as if we were their family. the food was also hands down the best italian food i’ve ever had. we made the main dishes and desserts and he brought out a homemade appetizer and fococcia bread. it was a night my family won’t forget and was so amazing meeting these people. i will 100% be reaching our next time i am in Genoa and highly highly recommend you go meet Andrea and his wonderful family and recipes.

Where
Andrea
Cesarina from 2021Location: Genoa Languages: Italian, English, Spanish"It all started at the age of 12 with my first dish: the pennette with cream and asparagus. From here I decided to deepen this passion by obtaining the Hotel School and subsequently attending various private courses. I follow recipes handed down by my grandmothers, all strictly Genoese and/ or Ligurian. I live in Sestri Ponente, in the province of Genoa, where I can quickly reach the sea, but also the mountains. I welcome my guests in the room of my home and I like to customize and decorate the table according to the event."
