Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
I look forward to welcoming you as we delve into the tradition of Maremman cuisine: we'll prepare typical dishes from this wonderful region and then enjoy them together. My family will also join us, always happy and excited to share culinary secrets with our guests. My home is located right in the heart of Orbetello, just steps away from the lagoon where you can enjoy a stunning sunset.
Silvia made magic in a small space! She and her husband were gracious hosts. We learned new things to add to our Italian cooking techniques.
Above all we had fun!

The cooking class was really fun, interesting, and educational. Silvia and her husband are super friendly and very sociable. We had a wonderful evening and learned a lot. Definitely worth taking a cooking class here if you're in Orbetello. Silvia, thank you again for the lovely evening.

Cooking with Siliva was very nice. It was really nice, very tasty and above all informative. Silvia is a fantastic hostess with whom you can laugh a lot. Highly recommended.

We had a fabulous time cooking with Silvia!!! She was an excellent cook and so knowledgeable about the food we prepared and the area where it originated. She was such a gracious host. Thank you for making our experience memorable!!!

First of all, Silvia was EXTREMELY gracious with me when I missed our scheduled cooking class. I completely confused the dates and Silvia was amazingly patient, understanding, and accommodating. We were able to have our cooking class the next day.
My boyfriend and I LOVED our cooking class with Silvia (and her sweet angel of a mother) and it was one of the best part of our trip. Silvia and her mother were the sweetest hostesses and extremely personable. They were concerned about ensuring we felt right at home. We used Google Translate as a way of communicating since our Italian is non-existent. The dishes that were made were definitely different with a few recipes we took away with us that we will try to recreate. Overall, it's not something you'll regret!
