- 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!

- Our fresh pasta cooking course with Emanuela was easily the highlight of our trip to Napoli. From beginning to end, Emanuela and her partner Maurizio were warm, welcoming, and accommodating. Emanuela welcomed us into her beautiful home and pointed out the beautiful features of Napoli and across the bay. Then we got to work cooking! She went step by step, helping us to make fresh pasta and tiramisu. The experience was very fun, and the meal was hands down the best meal I had on my Italy trip! And was enjoyed with a beautiful view and with very good limoncello and wine. Truly nothing beats homemade food. We had reached out prior regarding dietary restrictions (I don't eat pork, and my husband doesn't drink) and Emanuela was very accommodating. Also, because of difficulties with transportation, for a reasonable fee Maurizio shuttled us to and from the residence, even stopping for us to enjoy panoramic views and take pictures. These accomodations made the entire experience stress free so we could fully enjoy and live in the moment. Grazi for making our visit to Napoli so incredible!
- An absolutely beautiful and authentic Italian experience. Emanuela and her husband were both so kind and I cannot wait to try recreating the recipe she taught us!
- Our cooking experience with Manuela was one of the highlights of our time in Naples! We learned a bit of the history of the area and about the ingredients we were using. Every member of our party had a work station and was able to participate in every aspect of preparation. Emanuela's home was lovely, with a stunning view of the bay area. The food we created was wonderful and I am excited to put our new skills to use at home. Our evening with Emanuela and her husband felt like visiting a favorite Aunt and learning a family recipe 😊
- Emanuela and Maurizio are some of the kindest most welcoming people I've had the pleasure to meet. I signed up for a cooking class but left with an extremely fulfilling knowledge and understanding of Napoli and its culture. A must for everyone looking to experience Napoli in its most authentic form :)
- Emanuels was wonderful! She opened up to her home and taught us how to make a delicious meal. She was a gracious host and amazing instructor
