Cooking class: learn how to cook Italian recipes and taste the dishes prepared during the lesson
Private Experience
Your experience
- Focaccia (homemade bread) di Recco (cheese focaccia)
- Mandilli ( traditional Lasagna from Liguria) with pesto
- Tiramisù with coffee and cocoa
Our cooking class takes place in our traditional, historic Genoese home. As you admire the port views from our windows, we'll take you on a journey through Ligurian taste and traditions.
We begin with cheese focaccia, an evolution of the timeless inland preparations. We then transition to "mandilli de saea" (silk handkerchiefs) with pesto, a true ode to Ligurian pasta craftsmanship. Our culinary voyage culminates with a classic tiramisu served in a glass, offering a sweet closure to your gastronomic adventure.

- Tomaso and his daughter were fantastic! The experience of learning to cook Italian food in a private home in Italy was a wonderful experience. Tomaso made the experience extra special by having nice hot foccacia right out of the oven…he is humorous also. Excellent.
- Tomaso and his daughter were helpful in getting us to their home for our cooking class when we got lost. We enjoyed being immersed in their home/culture for this small hands on cooking class.
- L’esperienza con Agata e Tomaso è stata molto più di una semplice cooking class. Ci hanno accolto nella loro bellissima casa tradizionale e trasmesso in poche ore tutta la loro passione per la cucina tradizionale genovese e ci hanno fatto sentire a casa. Ringraziamo ancora Agata e Tomaso e consiglieremo l’esperienza ai nostri conoscenti.
- My husband & I had the absolute best time. Tomaso was so welcoming and a great teacher. I would highly recommend this and it is definitely a once in a lifetime experience
- Very fun! Wonderful experience! Highly recommended!

Where
Tomaso
Cesarina from 2018Location: Genoa Languages: Italian and EnglishTomaso, a double-bass player, and his daughter Agata, a young student, welcome us into their lavish home which looks out over the port of Genova, and a fabulous panorama of the Ligurian sea.
In 2004, Tomaso discovered that as well as a passion for music, he also had a gift for cooking. He started attending courses until he finally gained a professional chef qualification. With the help of the talented Agata, he began organising dinners and events, always striving to develop his creativity in the kitchen whether it’s in restaurants, agriturismos, or even aboard luxurious yauchts in Montecarlo.
