Pasta, Pesto and Tiramisu class Riomaggiore, Cinque Terre
Description
Do you like Pasta, Pesto and Tiramisù? This is the right class for you to learn how to make from scratch our local handmade PASTA (Trofie), their condiment (PESTO Genovese) and, to forget the stairs you took to get to my kitchen, the creamy TIRAMISU', according to the traditional technique and to the recipe of my grandmother. The experience takes place in my XVI century private home in Riomaggiore (Cinque Terre) located in the village center where my dog Ettore and I will welcome you with a glass of prosecco. After few steps you can appreciate the stunning view of the village and the sea from the roof terrace on the 3rd floor of the building. The characteristic colored tower-houses are built following the steep orography of the hill and give a fantastic glance above all from the sea.

We took the ferry from Monterosso to Riomaggiore for our class. It was a beautiful ride, but our time with Lucca was even more magical. Lucca is a delightful host. We learned history of the food and he was very funny and kind in his instruction. Our meal was perfectly delicious! It was our best night in Italy/CT so far. Would highly recommend this amazing class with Lucca!
Luca was a fantastic host, very knowledgeable about local culture and cuisine. The pasta was the best we had the entire time we were in Cinque terre and we had a great time making it - views from his apartment are also amazing! LGBTQ friendly
Luca was a delightful host. The map given the morning of the cooking class is the only one you should use. Google doesn't work.
What a lovely afternoon. Our cooking class was so much fun! Luca is an excellent teacher, a great host, and a funny and delightful person. We made tiramisu, the most delicious pesto, and a pasta that everyone else in the class but me learned to shape! It was, nevertheless, delicious.
Luca provides a friendly, fun and authentic experience that is not to be missed. You do not need to be a cook to enjoy this activity. You just need to be enthusiastic and of course hungry! My wife and I loved the entire event and would happily join Luca again for another evening!
Great experience, made better pesto than the restaurants we tried. Small group made the experience nice. Would recommend
Fantastic and authentic experience with Luca! We had such a fun time learning more about what we were making and Luca’s instructions for how to find his place were very clear. Highly recommend!
I had an amazing time learning how to cook trofie pasta, pesto and tiramisu with Luca! He was a great teacher, bubbly personality and very knowledgeable about the region. He has a very warm and welcoming home up in the hills of Riomaggiore. It was my first night on my solo trip to Cinque Terre and it was a great way to quick off the weekend. I would definitely recommend to someone looking for an authentic Italian cooking experience, who is staying in the region!
It was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had with Viator. It was fun and creative and the chef made sure everyone felt welcome. Thank you so much! Food was also soooo yummy.
We had a great time. The food and the recipe was fantastic. Luca was funny and welcoming. I would highly recommend
