"The family that ran this experience was incredibly nice. You can tell that they really care about this experience. I did the class with my friend and we made so many dishes so I def do not recommend eating before. Overall I would recommend this experience to anyone because the cooking class was good and you had a nice view and the family was so kind."
"An exceptional and unforgettable experience in Praiano! They were lovely, very helpful and passionate from start to finish. In addition to the detailed explanations of each dish, we were very touched by the story of their workshop, which is based on their grandmother's authentic recipes. Everything was delicious. The setting with the view is incredible, the atmosphere was great, and their impeccable French made communication very smooth. Special mention for all their thoughtful touches: the limoncello shots, sharing the recipes, the gnocchi utensil given as a souvenir, and even their valuable tips for visiting the surrounding area. This is truly a must-do activity on the Amalfi Coast and most certainly one of the best memories of our entire stay. Thank you for your generosity. Go for it without hesitation!"
"Tatiana was the best and most amazing host. We had the most fun! She was so helpful and nice. We cooked so much food and she told us the history of everything we made. She not only helped us make amazing food we then ate, she took photos, sent us the recipes and gave us a gift out of the kindness of her heart. I will definitely want to keep in touch and share with her when we cook at home. Felt like family! And her garden was so amazing too. Thank you!!"
"Loved this activity with the family, we learnt so much and now determined to make our own pasta, so delicious and plenty of food and drinks! Limoncello spritz for the first time and was lovely. Great views as well!"
"Very fun, good conversations and learned to cook good italian food. The sisters were great, I would go back again tomorrow."
"Amazing. Everything from the knowledge in the cooking tutorials to the food at the end. A really exceptional experience. We couldn’t recommend this experience enough to anyone wanting to know more about Praiano and Italian cooking."
"This cooking class was WONDERFUL. The sisters were welcoming, warm, and friendly, making the class enjoyable and interactive. My partner and I were the only two guests that evening, which made for a special and unique experience. I cannot recommend this class enough!! 10/10, 5 stars."
