- We had a fabulous evening with Laura and I highly recommend the experience to anyone visiting Sorrento. The food was sensational, Laura taught us to make pasta unlike any I have had before. The ravioli were so light and the scialatiello were chewy and cheesy and just so fantastic. We had great fun kneading and rolling the pasta and also shaping the gnocchi. Laura is incredibly warm and welcoming with a lovely sense of humour. She also had Federica helping her to translate between Italian and English and I thoroughly enjoyed their company. This was by far my favourite experience in Italy and I hope to meet Laura again one day.
- We were graciously welcomed by Laura and Elena and enjoyed delicious appetizers with wine. We then headed to the kitchen to make “Tiramazing “ with Laura’s secret ingredients! We were able to find them in the grocery store and have since enjoyed the delicious tiramisu at home ! We then made wonderful gnocchi which we enjoyed. Laura then shared a classic homemade dish of potato pasta which was the first time we tried this amazing , delicious dish. We also enjoyed speaking with Elena about her studies. It was a beautiful evening with Sorrento locals. ! We really appreciated the hospitality. We would definitely do this again when back in Sorrento !
- We had a fantastic cooking class with Laura and her daughter, Maria! They were so kind and welcoming. We had some delicious appetizers before making two types of pasta and tiramisu. All the food was incredible and we’re looking forward to recreating the recipes at home! We’d recommend a class with Laura and Maria to anyone looking for an authentic Italian experience! Thank you again!!
- We are a wonderful time. The instructor and her daughter we very welcoming. 2 course of paste and a delicious desert. Our family considered it one of our favorite events while in Sorrento.
- During our stay in sorrento, we wanted to learn how to do pasta. The experience with laura & her family was amazing. They have been so sweet and it was funny. I recommend at 100%.
