Ciao da Andrea!
"E' iniziato tutto all'età di 12 anni con il mio primo piatto: le pennette con panna e asparagi. Da qui ho deciso di approfondire questa passione conseguendo la scuola Alberghiera e frequentando successivamente vari corsi privati. Seguo delle ricette tramandate dalle mie nonne, tutte rigorosamente Genovesi e/o Liguri. Vivo a Sestri Ponente, in provincia di Genova, dove ho possibilità di raggiungere velocemente il mare, ma anche la montagna. Accolgo i miei ospiti nella sala della mia casa e mi piace personalizzare e decorare il tavolo in base all'evento."

- An Unforgettable Culinary Experience at Dolci Pasticci booked via Cesarine. We had the absolute pleasure of joining a cooking demonstration at Dolci Pasticci, and it turned out to be one of the most enriching and delicious experiences of our trip! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by our host and the restaurant’s owner, Andrea, along with his lovely parents, Barbara and Roberto. Their hospitality made us feel like part of the family. The class was hands-on and informative—we even got to help make traditional Ligurian focaccia bread and delicious batter dumplings with zucchini. Along the way, Andrea and his family shared fascinating insights into Ligurian cuisine, including introductions to local cheeses, the secrets behind making the best pesto we’ve ever tasted, and even the difference between white and black truffles—plus the incredible ways these prized fungi are sourced. After cooking, we sat down together to enjoy a beautifully prepared four-course meal. It began with the very focaccia and dumplings we helped make, followed by a standout dish: Andrea’s handmade ravioli, filled with a unique and aromatic beef and clove mixture—absolutely exquisite. The main course, a succulent tomato-based beef stew with oven-fried potatoes and onions, was hearty and full of flavor. And for dessert, we were treated to Canestrelli, delicate flower-shaped shortbread biscuits, perfectly paired with a glass of sweet Asti Muscat wine. This experience was more than just a cooking class—it was a deep dive into the heart of Ligurian food culture, made special by the warmth and passion of Andrea and his family. We left with full bellies, happy hearts, and a newfound appreciation for this incredible regional cuisine. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable food experience in Liguria!
- Andrea e Barbara ci hanno regalato un’evento indimenticabile per il compleanno di mio marito. Abbiamo imparato a fare una deliziosa focaccia al formaggio e abbiamo pranzato da re! Alla fine ci ha sorpreso con una buonissima torta alla crema diplomatica e frutti di bosco con la candelina! Grazie Andrea e Barbara 🫶 alla prossima volta!
- This class was one of my highlights in Genova and Andrea was an amazing teacher! He took time to explain not only how to cook each dish but also the regional history about Genova’s cooking. By the time class was over I made three delicious Italian dishes and had some wonderful coffee courtesy of Andrea and his mom. Andrea’s English was extremely good and he was very fun to chat with! Absolutely do not miss his class :)
- Great Food and a great experience. Andrea is a gentle host.
- L'esperienza che cercavo per festeggiare il mio compleanno con le persone più care! Servizio eccellente e delicato, cibo buono e curato. Tutto perfetto!
