Hi from Silvia!

"My cuisine ranges from appetizers to desserts with great versatility. For some years I have studied the art of vegetarian and vegan cooking to meet the dietary needs of my children. I revisited typical dishes of the Campania tradition in a vegetable key, without losing sight of recipes and original flavors. I also cultivate with great passion the collection of antique English porcelain, which I love to present to my guests both at breakfast and at the classic tea time. I live to cook and have extreme respect for my guests, of whom I do not miss to grasp specific needs and unusual food tastes ".

What a great experience! Sylvia welcomed us into her kitchen where we learnt how to make pasta, gnocchi and tiramisu. She treated us to many Italian appetizers before we ate the food we cooked with her. We had so much fun and the food was excellent! She was a great host and shared her love of cooking with us! Thanks to her two helpers ! Would recommend this class to anyone!

Learning to prepare and cook a sumptuous and delicious meal with Silvia was the perfect way to spend our day in Salerno. She is welcoming, gracious, and fun to be with. Making fresh pasta and bruschetta, learning her tricks of the trade for delicious tomato sauce and dessert, plus the expansive appetizers, shared at her family table created lasting memories. We came via cruise ship, and the 15-20 minute neighborhood walk to her home was easy and enjoyable. In addition, she was attentive and accommodating to my dietary issues. A day with Chef Silvia is a definite must!

It was a true pleasure cooking with Silvia and the learning experience was enjoyable and fun. I was able not only to be on the insights of the real “cucina italiana” but also share a meal with a fantastic family. They decorated the table with the Halloween team and that was very cute. I’ll definitely practice all my recipes and I recommend it 💯 %

I am an Italian American and was excited to go back to where my family was from and take a cooking class from Silvia. What an amazing experience. Silvia is an excellent cook and teacher. I even picked up on a few tips I wasn't aware of when making ravioli. I highly recommend booking time with Silvia. it is a life changing memory I will cherish forever!

My 12 year old daughter and I spent the day cooking and eating with Sylvia and her lovely family today. It was such a highlight and will probably be our favorite memory of this whole trip to Italy. Definitely worth a trip to Salerno. I can't emphasize enough how lovely she was, how delicious the food was and how much fun we had!!! Grazie Mille, Sylvia!!!
