Join our warm and intimate cooking class (max 8 guests) in a real family home, hosted by Virginia and Mamma Nadia—with our charming cats Cesare & Cindy to greet you with a purr.

We’ll start by preparing two traditional pastas: pillowy ravioli and silky tagliatelle, all made from scratch using organic, seasonal ingredients—just like Italian grandmothers have done for generations.

After cooking, you’ll sit down on our panoramic terrace to enjoy a full, slow-paced Italian meal. Begin with local antipasti and wine, then savor your freshly made pasta, followed by our signature tiramisu. All accompanied by breathtaking views, heartfelt conversation, and plenty of wine.
