Hi from Alessandra!
Sorrento, land of sirens that tempted Ulysses and home of Torquato Tasso, offers moments of poetry between secret coves, breathtaking views and tasty stops, as at home of our Cesarina 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.

- Everything today was wonderful from the market shop to the cooking class. Alessandra is the sweetest person and made our experience truly awesome.
- Alessandra was wonderful! We had the best time and learned so many new cooking skills! This is an experience that I highly recommend for new or experienced cooks! The setting is beautiful and I loved that most of the ingredients were straight from her garden. The best cooking class I have ever done!!
- We absolutely loved everything. The hosts were great and the food was plentiful & delicious. We'll be making this food when we get home. Pro tip: if they offer to provide the transportation you should take them up on it. I can see how a taxi would get lost. Also, they have sweet pets and we love Kiki. The view and home are gorgeous as well. Money well spent, would do this again.
- What an amazing experience for my family and I. I highly recommend Alessandra!! Her and her family made us feel so welcome. This is an event that we will never forget. It is so worth doing!!
- This experience was spectacular!! Our day started with Alessandra personally picking us up at our hotel and showed us many sights along the way to her home for our class. We stopped by the market where we hand selected ingredients for our cooking class. We were then welcomed at her home and kitchen with a Prosecco and a spectacular view of the coast from her patio. Our time in the kitchen was very enjoyable and informational! We learned how to make gnocchi, tiramisu and eggplant parmigiana. She even went above and beyond to include a short lesson in pasta making. We then enjoyed the fruits of our labor eating in her backyard patio surrounded by various plants, vegetable and fruit trees! A special shout out to her daughter who assisted Alessandra with this entire process! We were treated like family from beginning to end. We would HIGHLY recommend this tour!!
