Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Seasonal fantasy appetizer
  • Fresh pasta tagliatelle/spaghetti alla chitarra alla calabrese
  • Soft tart with seasonal fruit or citrus fruits

I am a Cesarina, but first and foremost I am a Reggina, passionate about my city and its traditions, but also attentive to modern evolutions. In our cooking class, we will combine tradition and innovation, keeping the classic dishes but playing with presentation and layout. From appetizer to dessert, we will follow the seasonality of ingredients. Together we will prepare fresh pasta, using both ancient and modern tools, and the sauce that will dress it will reflect the local tradition. The same approach will be followed for dessert. This will be accompanied by a welcome drink, lots of laughter, merriment and with the active participation of my family. It will be an experience that combines the best of culinary traditions with a modern twist.

I could not have asked for a better host, Antonella was AMAZING!!! She was so warm and welcoming and very knowledgeable about all things cooking. I had such a beautiful afternoon/ evening with her. It truly was a highlight of my trip.

Antonella was phenomenal! Our family had an unforgettable experience cooking and then dining with her. We learned a tremendous amount about pasta making and Calabrian cooking in general. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to those looking for a fun and fulfilling culinary experience in Reggio Calabria.

Our time spent with Antonella and her family was priceless to us siblings. It was our first time to our heritage roots. To eat and watch her make our local regional food and receive and education in the process was worth it all. We highly recommend this experience if you are going to Reggio Calabria.

Our evening with Cesarina Antonella was everything we hoped for and more. We received a warm welcome to her home. She truly went to great lengths to give us an authentic food experience, with each ingredient selected regionally- keeping with what people directly from Reggio Calabria would come to expect. There were so many dishes and courses we could not count. Everything was made by hand and was of exquisite taste. She even accommodated for my wife’s vegan vegetarian diet. Conversation was fun and we learned more about the city than we could have possibly gotten from a tour. This was truly a special night and one we will never forget!

Antonella
Cesarina from 2018Location: Reggio Calabria    Languages: Italian and English
In the heart of the Mediterranean, in the deep south of Italy, lies a corner of light, sea, and poetry. We are in Reggio Calabria, where its waterfront is one of the most scenic and beautiful promenades in our peninsula, offering the scent of the sea, views of the unmistakable silhouette of Mount Etna, and the evening sunset over the strait. Just steps from the historic center, we meet Antonella. Our Cesarina welcomes us into her cozy home with a panoramic terrace overlooking the sea. During her cooking classes, Antonella shares typical Calabrian recipes: from pasta rigorously handmade, like "maccheroni al ferretto," bursting with the colors and flavors of the land and sea, to cured meats accompanied by typical preserves of vegetables, eggplants, and other vegetables preserved in oil, and sun-dried tomatoes, ending with traditional desserts.
