What a fun way to engage in the food experience of Genova! We adored making and tasting local Cuisine, including pesto, shortbread, and focaccia. Veronica and Bernardo were both professional and fun! Molto bene!

My friends bought me a solo ticket for this course as a graduation gift, so I had to join some others I didn’t know to participate. At the time, I was recovering from an injury that made it hard for me to stand for long periods. This made me a little worried about going alone, but I didn’t want to miss out! When our local expert Veronica learned this, she was incredibly accommodating and kind. She ensured I had places to rest and was even taking pictures for me so I could show my friends later. The course was a lot of fun with great atmosphere. I felt like I learned a lot. Plus the food was delicious! I am looking forward to making it again someday for my friends to try. I was really glad I decided to take a chance on joining in the end!

Our tour guide Veronica was fabulous. The chef that worked with and taught us couldn’t have been better. I would highly recommend this tour. In addition to learning some wonderful recipes, we learned a little Italian along the way.

The entire experience was memorable. We loved how passionate each of our chefs were in teaching our group the history and techniques in making our three dishes.

We had such a great time! The Chef and Juliana made the experience so enjoyable. We can’t wait to try the recipes at home with all the new tricks we learnt. Thank you!

My friend and I had a work trip to Italy in July and signed up for this cooking class. We were the only two in the class which was an absolutely incredible experience! Our guide, Juliana and our chef were amazing. 10/10 would recommend!

A great cooking class that is very interactive set in a restaurant with knowledgeable, great and helpful staff. Small intimate setting which also adds to the experience. Also the food was delicious! Juliana was our host who I would highly recommend

Both our guide (Juliana), and the chef (unfortunately didn’t catch his name) were great: very helpful, knowledgeable, and patient. They gave step by step guides for preparation, as well as local context/history of each dish. We then made each dish, which was a lot of fun. Each dish/component was simple enough for beginners to make, but was still engaging and novel where even people with more experience will still learn some techniques. Each step was meaningful and interactive (no menial/boring tasks). And the whole time the guide (also an experienced chef) and the restaurant chef answer questions and provide insight to each dish. Overall, I’d say if you are visiting Genoa, this is a must do. Was exceptional. I think this format is best for parties of 2-6, as then the experience is a bit more hands on and intimate, but I am sure larger parties would find similar enjoyment.

Our group (4 adults and 4 kids) had a wonderful time making fresh pesto, Focaccia Al Formaggio, and the cookies at the end. It was hands on with all of us and it was very educational with Sabine. Highly recommend!
