Shared Experience
Your experience
- Baked Stuffed Mussels
- Cavatelli with mussels
- Tiramisu
In the historic setting of my home in Barivecchia, a short distance from the sea and the Murattian center, I host cultural events such as photo exhibitions, craft shows, swing concerts and theater performances. In addition, I organize cooking classes dedicated to mussels. During these sessions, we will prepare delicious mussels au gratin, perfect to enjoy as an aperitif accompanied by a glass of chilled wine. Next, we will make cavatelli, which we will season with mussel sauce and a little chili. We will finish with a single-portion tiramisu, following tradition. During the event, I will reveal some tricks to make the dishes even more special, all accompanied by pleasant jazz music. To end on a high note, I will treat you to an excellent coffee.

- This was our favorite experience of the cruise. Valentina was the most gracious host and patient instructor. She provided us with a delicious meal around the pasta we made, a warm and welcoming home, and lively conversation. A primo excursion all the way.
- Valentina was an excellent host. She first gave us a short walking tour of her city and a couple local markets. Back at her lovely home, she patiently showed us how to prepare the orecchiette and the tiramisu. A great experience!

I enjoy adding a personal touch to traditional recipes from my area. Living in the ancient village, I love to "steal" the secrets from the guardians of ancient recipes, now known worldwide.
