Filomena

In my kitchen, I use only top-quality ingredients, carefully chosen from local producers, and prepared with attention, using the "star" ingredient—our extra virgin olive oil, produced with passion and dedication.I don’t have a single dish that represents me because every day of the year brings a different specialty, created based on the seasonal availability of ingredients and what’s fresh at the moment.The one ingredient that never misses is love—the love I put into preparing and serving each dish, to offer an authentic and unforgettable experience.

We were quite excited when ringing the bell at Filomenas house, cause this was the first time we attended a dinner experience at someones home. We couldn't have felt more welcome. Filomena and her family was so nice and warm! We learned how to make fresh tagliatelle, just like her mother used to make it. Both she and her daughters were really helpful. And the result accompanied by her own tomato sauce and typical sausages from the region, tasted very good! Filomena had prepared several kinds of antipasti before we came. We also helped cut some lovely local cheeze. All the dishes were really nice. We appreciated this fantastic opportunity to have dinner together with Filomenas lovely family and learn about local traditions! It's fantastic when people open up their homes like that. Our very best recommodations! ❤️

What a beautiful family and experience. I couldn't have hoped for more. They made me feel like family. Yes, good and kind people still exist. And they are found in Filomena's kitchen.

Filomena was an amazing teacher and cook. We learned a lot about eggplant and Italian cooking and so enjoyed spending time with Filomena and her daughter!!! She totally spoiled us and took us on a quick tour of her town. An exceptional experience and a highlight of our trip.
