Amazing class and food with outstanding hosts who were funny and warm and the setting of their home on a cliff side farm was spectacular
This experience was for sure a highlight of our trip! We will cherish these memories forever! Barbara and Stefano were so lovely and so incredibly talented! The food was absolutely delicious and the view could not be beat. We highly recommend adding this to your itinerary!
This was the best experience my husband and I have done so far. Barbara and Stefano’s house and property was beyond beautiful and the experience they provide is top notch. Not to mention the most delicious pesto gnocchi we have ever had in our lives- we can’t wait to try to replicate it at home! Truly a magical evening with many new cooking tips to take home!
This was an absolutely wonderful experience! Barbara and Stefano are amazing. We learned so much about Italian cooking and Italian culture. Their warm, lovely home high upon a mountain top was an amazing backdrop for this experience.
Cooking class with Barbara was wonderful…perfect in every way. Lovely afternoon. Great recipes and instruction. The setting was picture perfect.
Barbara and Stefano's class was one of the most memorable parts of our trip to Italy. They are so warm and welcoming. The dishes we made were authentic and with clear instructions! A must book for your visit to Cinque Terre.
Absolutely wonderful! Barbara and Stephano were delightful . I learned so much. I appreciated that they put the culinary techniques and choices in the context of local culture, as well as some interesting distinctions of how their families did and do certain things.
Wonderful cooking experience with Barbara and Stefano! Their property is beautiful, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves in the hills above Riomaggiore. Text Barbara ahead of time for directions, as it is slightly difficult to find. Barbara makes the cooking a fun experience and of course it was delicious to eat afterwards. I highly recommend this!
We had a fantastic time making gnocchi and pesto with Barbara and couldn't recommend the experience more highly. The food, lesson and view were all brilliant!
A must do if you’re staying in Cinque Terre! Barbara and Stefano were amazing hosts in their beautiful home. We had a lovely time, with beautiful food, wine and lots of laughs. Thanks for having us P.S let Barbara help you with your taxi or you’ll be late like us!
