- Ravioli
It is a tradition in my family to make fresh pasta, and my grandmother's ravioli are always the most popular. After a trip to Sorrento, my grandmother tried out this recipe, which we still often cook on special occasions. A filling of zucchini, basil, scamorza cheese, and ricotta makes these ravioli simply delicious, especially when sautéed in butter with cream cheese, black pepper, and basil. And when paired with my grandfather's homemade wine, the aromas and flavors become truly unforgettable. Grandparents are a great treasure!

- Emanuela and Maurizio were extraordinary hosts from the very beginning. Their home is one of a kind: a terrace with a sea view where they welcomed us with a homemade aperitivo, sharing interesting facts about the city and Neapolitan cuisine with contagious passion. Then the lesson began: we prepared calzoni and montanarine under the expert guidance of Emanuela, fried and eaten immediately – a huge satisfaction! To finish, she had prepared a red berry tiramisu that was simply incredible. The warm welcome and the feeling of truly being at home made our friend Emma's bachelorette party something special and unforgettable. There were ten of us and the space was more than sufficient, both inside and out. I recommend it to anyone who wants to combine a fun and curious culinary experience with the opportunity to meet real Neapolitans, passionate and full of stories to tell! Thank you Emanuela, I’m sure we’ll soon have a good opportunity to return and try new recipes with you!
- Emanuela was amazing. It was an unforgettable experience—beautiful home, spectacular views over Naples, and such warm and welcoming hosts. The class was both fun and informative, and we left not only having prepared and eaten delicious ravioli, mozzarella in carrozza, and tiramisu, but also with a deeper appreciation for the city
- Imagine having to go to lunch with a couple of friends or relatives (the ones you like, mind you), and then add a spectacular view of the gulf and Vesuvius. Well, that’s how we felt, like having lunch with people you haven’t seen in a while, but it only takes a moment to reconnect. Emanuela and Maurizio were wonderful hosts, and it wasn’t just about lunch. They explained everything explainable about that marvelous city, Naples, and they made us feel part of something, even if only for a few hours. You can really tell they believe in what they do, and those who believe in it rarely do it badly. It goes without saying that the experience related purely to the food was excellent, and even I, who am celiac, was able to eat the same typical dishes as everyone else, with ingredients dedicated to me. Emanuela and Maurizio aren’t our relatives, but… well, if you could choose your family, we’d want them exactly like this. ❤️
- For my husband’s birthday, we went to Emanuela and Maurizio’s house to experience a cooking class! It was simply a magical evening! First of all, the atmosphere: Emanuela and Maurizio’s house is an enchanting place, full of warmth and hospitality. We immediately felt at home, as if we were with family. The cooking class was an incredible experience! We were guided step by step in preparing delicious dishes and learned many tricks and secrets of Italian cuisine. But the real value of this evening was the time spent together!! We felt like one big family, we laughed, joked and savored every moment. The food, of course, was exquisite! And the fact that we prepared it ourselves made it even more special. Thank you, Emanuela and Maurizio, for giving us this unforgettable evening! We are already ready to return for another culinary adventure together!
- It was truly a beautiful experience: Emanuela is a wonderful hostess and knows a whole series of tricks that help you with the preparation and writing of your "dough"! We made ravioli with her, and we were able to appreciate how important it is in the kitchen to use all the available materials! I highly recommend trying it, and then the view is worth it in itself!!!!

Where
Emanuela
Cesarina from 2018Location: Naples (NA) Languages: Italian and EnglishNestled in the gulf, Naples wakes up to views of its splendid sea every day. The same sea which the large, green balcony of our Cesarina's house overlooks, and which offers a breathtaking panorama.
The house where Emanuela is hosting us is spacious, furnished with traditional, refined in taste and flooded with light. Emanuela’s passion for the culinary arts goes back to when she was still a small child, peeking into “mama’s" kitchen. Our Cesarina is a clever mosaic: her intuition for the accompaniments and perfect combinations has made her an expert in the art of preparing good food. Flavors and fragrances are skillfully put together to tell the history and traditions of her region.
