Ciao da Rocco e Carla!

Siamo a Praiano, un paesino incantato nel cuore della Costiera Amalfitana, luogo perfetto per dar vita a piatti che racchiudono freschezza, tradizione e genuinità.Qui ci accolgono Carla e Rocco, i nostri Cesarini, che fin da piccoli, hanno toccato con mano quello che è il mondo della cucina, delle tradizioni e delle serate seduti intorno ad un tavolo. La cucina per loro non è mai stata una passione, ma uno stile di vita. Le loro reciproche esperienze, nel mondo della ristorazione, hanno dato vita al loro progetto: unire passione gastronomica, tradizioni e cibi genuini cucinati con i prodotti del loro orto e provenienti dai momenti di pesca. “Seguire le ricette di famiglia e tramandarle ai nostri ospiti è il nostro obbiettivo!"

: I truly cannot speak highly enough about Rocco and Carla's cooking class. Many of the experiences on the Amalfi coast can feel inauthentic and touristy, but at Be Genuine, you so clearly get a true experience of what it is like to live in Praiano. Rocco was a wonderfully gracious host - warm, welcoming, and so happy to answer all of our questions about what it is like to live in Italy. Carla, our teacher, spoke fantastic English and had lots of tips and tricks learned over generations of Italian cooking that she was more than happy to share. The ingredients were fresh from their garden and the food was absolutely delicious, but the best part of the experience was certainly getting to know this wonderful family. If you are looking to have an unforgettable experience on your trip, you will not regret booking this experience. Grazie mille, Rocco, Carla, and Alexandro!
: Amazing experience! Everyone should try this cooking class with Rocco and Carla!
: Excellent pasta-making experience at a beautiful venue with gorgeous views in Praiano Italy. Rocco is a wonderful host and his wife, Carla, a superb chef. We made pasta and a beautiful and delicious dessert with mascarpone, cookies and cacao. This is an experience you won't want to miss. Highly recommend!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
: Rocco was quick to respond and very communicative. He was very prompt and friendly. If you’re looking for a genuine Italian cooking lesson, in a genuine Italian home (not an indoor kitchen but an outside kitchen), with a genuine Italian family, then this is the cooking lesson you will enjoy. We started with bruschetta and their family made white wine, which led into preparing stuffed eggplant (My personal favorite of the day and I didn’t think I liked eggplant!), moving on to their family made red wine while we had fun making two different kinds of pasta of our choosing. While the eggplant was cooking and the pasta sauce and noodles (cooked al dente)as well, we made our desserts which consisted of sweetened mascarpone and mascarpone with cacao, in layers with cookies, drizzled in homemade mandarin juice made from the tree right next to where we were cooking. While our desserts were chilling, we started our meal and enjoyed amazing food and wonderful company. Joining us for our cooking class was newlyweds from New York and three year newly married couple from New England. They were so fun! We finished with their homemade liqur and our homemade desserts. It was amazing. Could not have asked for a better morning/afternoon. Can’t wait to make the eggplant! Thank you Rocco and Carla!
: Incredible experience with Rocco and Carla in Praiano. A highlight of our trip to Italy. We had a relaxing evening in their beautiful garden, drinking homemade wine, making delicious pasta and zuppa inglese. Would recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic cooking class on the Amalfi Coast
