Transforming the dish into a painting is an easy objective for those who love to cook and put their passion throughout the preparation.
To transform a dish into an impressionist painting, full of natural and never dull colors, you have to choose fresh ingredients and cook them in the most suitable way so that they do not lose their tones and nuances. Nature is the color palette and you will be the painters. The aubergine will be the purple, tomato the red, basil the green, the green and yellow of the courgettes and their flowers and all the spring colors of the pastiera. The plate will be the canvas: all you have to do is start painting!

- 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!
- 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
- Non è solo un'esperienza quella con Emanuela, ma un arricchimento personale. Si cucina, si imparano trucchi e segreti della tradizione partenopea, ma Emanuela oltre a questo fa da guida con vista sul golfo di Napoli. È stata la nostra prima esperienza con le Cesarine e grazie a lei ce ne siamo innamorati e sicuramente non sarà l'ultima. Grazie Emanuela, grazie Maurizio!

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.
