Hi from Marilena!
I realized my love for cooking from a young age, ever since Santa Claus brought me "Sweet Oven 90" when I was 7... I spent days baking. Today, cooking for me means conveying the passion and dedication I put into preparing my dishes. The kitchen is my natural habitat, where I find relaxation. I also love welcoming people into my home and making them feel like part of my family. In fact, whenever possible, I often organize lunches or dinners with friends and relatives.

- We had such an amazing time with Marilena!!! From start to finish, everything was smooth and well organized. She and her family were incredibly kind and welcoming, inviting us into their home as if we were family. The food we prepared was absolutely delicious made even better by ingredients she grew herself! They went above and beyond by offering extra goodies and treats, which made the experience feel even more special. It was such a wonderful experience!
- This was the highlight of our trip. We learned so much from the family and they were so warm and welcoming.
- Marilena and her family were amazing hosts! Marilena picked my daughter and I up in Sorrento and drive us to her country side home where she taught us to cook in her open air kitchen. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and fun. I would highly recommend this experience!
- We absolutely loved this experience with Marilena at her family home. It was so authentic and located in such a beautiful place. We had so much fun learning how to cook authentic Italian food from Marilena and her mother and would highly recommend this experience.
- This cooking class was the absolute highlight of our trip. It was more than just learning how to cook it was a warm, welcoming, and truly authentic experience. The setting was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere felt like being part of a local family. We laughed, learned, and shared a meal we helped prepare ourselves something we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a special, heartfelt activity to remember your trip by, this is it. Highly recommended!!
