Hi from Alessandra!

"I love traditional cuisine and I am passionate about leavened, especially the Neapolitan pizza made with my sourdough, with which I make fragrant breads, of any kind of flour". At her table flavors of sea and land, recipes of the culinary tradition of Sorrento, fragrant and tasty.

- Alessandra was amazing from beginning to end! My husband and I loved her ! She welcomed us into her home , which was beautiful as well. Nestled in the hills of Sorrento, overlooking Mount Vesuvius, Naples and Sorrento, with 360 degree views. Her home boasts her own gardens, which supply her with much of her own produce! She is kind, thoughtful, fun and knowledgeable! 100% a great culinary experience!
- Alessandra was the perfect host and teacher! She is a very special person
- Alessandra was amazing! She was warm, welcoming and super friendly! Most of all an amazing cook and teacher! We LOVED her!
- Wow! Amazing is really the best way to put this. Alessandra made a very gracious last minute request for my wife’s gluten allergy. Her family (including wonderful pets) and home were so inviting and welcoming. It was raining so we did not get the full experience of her beautiful garden where she’s maintains a lot of her ingredients for cooking. The food was delicious and she did a very good job at teaching us how to do it. I don’t know about other cooking classes in Sorrento but this has to be the best option. Our trip has been from Rome to Palermo to Sorrento and out of all the experiences we participated in this was my absolute favorite. I felt like I was at home. Do take this class
- From the beginning to the end, the entire experience was amazing! Alessandra and her family are so kind and welcoming and the food was so good. She is an incredible chef and teacher, and we really appreciated her showing us around her beautiful home. Couldn’t ask for a better experience!
