Awesome cooking class with chef Antonio! - Chef Antonio was awesome! We were a party of 7 had a great time learning how to make gnocchi, pesto sauce and tiramisu. The instructions were easy to follow, he gave us cool insights into the ingredients and what to pay attention to for the best results. He served a great wine to go along while we "worked" in the kitchen. We would go back anytime - for a cooking class or just visiting his km0 restaurant. And we will visit his brother's restaurant in Ridgefield, CT in the US next!

The cooking class with... - The cooking class with Rocco and Carla at their home in Praiano was an amazing experience. It was a small group - just 4 of us so very personal and hands on. The food was delicious! We learned to make different types of pasta, ricotta gnocchi and tiramisu. They also served us some homemade bread and wine. The food was all farm to table with most of it grown on their own property. I highly recommend this experience.

Must-do experience! - This experience was a highlight of our trip. Rocco and Carla were so kind and accommodating, and every single thing we did and made was incredible. They were so sweet with my 4 y/o boy as well, and it was so immersive and fun! And most importantly the food was DELICIOUS. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an authentic experience and great thing to do when visiting the amalfi coast!

The best cooking class on Amalfi! - The experience is an authentic Italian family hosting you in their home for a meal. You really feel apart of the family, we did do other cooking classes in Italy but this one was by far the best! Rocco and his family were so welcoming and it really felt like home. They were able to assist even the most basic chefs into creating great dishes and were so flexible if there was anything that the group didn’t want in or needed to substitute. I would recommend this class to anyone I meet that is thinking of doing a pasta cooking class in Italy that is authentic.

Authentic Italian cooking experience - This was an authentic food experience at a family home. Rocco and Carla guided us through making pasta dough and various shapes of pasta. We also made a very classic tiramisu. Couples picked two pasta shapes and sauces to enjoy. Carla instructed in the cooking while Rocco told us about his family’s farming and poured the wine they made with their grapes. It was an authentic experience. Simple and straightforward.

Wrong information, disorganized, our reservation was not there, we were turned away even though paid and booked months - Viator/tripadvisor uses a third-party company called CesarIne. Even though multiple emails confirm details within an assigned host at the assigned 5:30 PM, they did not have a reservation for us and they did not have a class at 5:30pm per our reservation. Address was wrong, we used the neighbors to find them. We booked an experience for positano but were sent to Praiano a bit far. We went there and did not have phone number. With lot of difficulties, we used neighbors to find Rocco, but we were turned away as they did not have our reservation and the had a full class at 4pm but not 5:30 per our reservation. We messaged the “host” Cesarine on Viator and they sent a message back with a number in Bologna which is no where near to us, and a different name of host. “Please contact your host directly “ with a new name in Bologna far away. They have all wrong information. Disorganized. No direct communication between third party and host family where they sent us. Everything was wrong. We were very disappointed and wasted our time. We got nothing, no experience.
