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!

Emanuela is a treasure. From the market tour to the cooking class in her beautiful home kitchen, everything felt personal and unhurried. Then dinner on the terrace overlooking all of Naples lit up at night... honestly one of the most magical meals of our lives. She's warm, funny, a fantastic teacher, and an even better cook. The gnocchi alla sorrentina alone was worth the trip. And when the night ended, her partner drove us back through the tiny alleys of Naples like a scene out of a movie. If you're on the fence about booking, don't be. This was the highlight of our Italy trip. Trent

My wife and I did a cooking class in English with Emanuela. We had an excellent experience. We learned to make tiramisu, ravioli stuffed with ricotta in a tomato based sauce, and fried ravioli. Emanuela was extremely friendly and informative, and her home and view of Mt Vesuvius from her balcony were beautiful! We highly recommend a cooking class with Emanuela, and will do another class with her when we are back in Napoli.

Emanuela and her husband were very welcoming into their beautiful home giving you wonderful recipes and a relaxing lunch and view of Naples and the sea

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

Emanuela

Cesarina from 2018Location: Naples (NA)    Languages: Italian and English
Nestled 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.
