Rocco and Carla were amazing! They went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience - so much so that they reached out the morning of our original planned day to give us the option to reschedule for the following day due to bad weather. We were so glad they did because it would have been a completely different experience. The food and wine were amazing. It felt like we were making dinner at home with long time friends. We would definitely recommend!

We had such a great experience at this cooking class and can’t recommend it enough. Rocco and Carla were so welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable about the food we were making. They did a great job explaining everything in a way that was easy to follow, while still making it fun and engaging.
We got to prepare an amazing meal using fresh ingredients, and everything turned out delicious. It was also really special getting to try their homemade wine and it added such a personal touch to the whole experience.
On top of that, we had a great time with the other couples in the class, which made it even more enjoyable. It felt less like a class and more like a fun, shared experience. If you’re in Praiano and thinking about doing a cooking class, this is definitely the one to book.

Jake_M, Jun 2025
Incredible experience. Rocco and Carla were both very informative and hilarious. Was really cool to be able to learn and cook in their garden, which gave a real local feel and they helped give us trustworthy suggestions for where to go on the rest of our trip. The food was great and really fun to make. We also tried a lot of wine that was probably the best wine we had all trip. Highly recommend.

Carla and Rocco put on an incredible class and they are incredibly welcoming into their home, really enjoyed being able to see exactly how the locals cook. Also appreciate them passing on the recipes we used during the class to take home with us!
Katie_S, Nov 2024
Rocco & Carla were gracious hosts to their home. They showed us how to make several different types of pasta and let us make our own. They explained their family history and business in depth which we appreciated. The view was amazing and their home easy to get to. We didn't take many pictures because we were having such a great time. We highly recommend this cooking experience. You won't be disappointed.

Overall, it was an authentic experience. The hosts were nice, are the other participants in the class were a good bonus as well
Kristine_D, Sept 2024
Rocco and Carla were so kind, extremely welcoming, and accommodating. Rocco met us promptly at the pick up location and walked us to his family home. Our group had to leave early to catch the last ferry, but Carla and Rocco made sure to get through all the recipes before we had to leave. The food and drinks were amazing!!! Could not have had a better time. Highly recommend.

This was one of my favorite experiences! The host were amazing, the food and experience was everything we wanted and more!
Michael_M, Aug 2024
We had a wonderful evening with Rocco, his wife, and even his 4 year old son who was a huge Marvel fan made an appearance. We learned how to make several different types of pasta shapes and indulged in some incredible homemade wine;. A wonderful evening that I would highly recommend.

Such an amazing experience so glad we did this cooking class, so authentic. You can see Clara and Rocco’s passion for sharing their knowledge and their amazing home grown produce and locally sourced ingredients. Spectacular outdoor undercover area with beautiful scenic views and shaded from the sun. Delicious food and homemade wine.
Would highly recommend.
Neeti_M, Jul 2024
Rocco and Carla welcomed us into their family and treated us to such an amazing experience. We learned to make many types of pasta shapes and had amazing home made wine. The entire time I was taken aback by the views, food, and their kindness. 100% recommend.
Averi_O, Jul 2024
My wife and I really enjoyed the intimate and relaxed cooking and dining experience created by Carla and Rocco. They brought us into their home garden and truly made our lunch one of a kind. Both Rocco and Carla were very personable and enjoyable to be around, answering all of our question and of course the food was delicious. It was a perfect mix of teaching and learning with privacy to enjoy the courses as if we were on a date. We highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to learn how to cook authentically as well as have a peaceful lunch/dinner while looking at the beautiful coast of Praiano.

Rocco and Carla were so welcoming, Carla is not only a great cook/teacher she is sharp as a tack and quick witted, so funny!! Booked same day as weather impacted our original plans and we were so lucky to find this experience. Made great food in a wonderful outdoor kitchen, some homemade wine, had great conversation and laughs. Highly recommend this experience and thanks to Rocco and Carla for welcoming us into their home!

Wonderful experience with Rocco and Carla. Fun time learning how to make pasta. It’s all about the experience of preparing an Italian meal in a private home along the Amalfi Coast.
Sarah_R, Jun 2024
This was so fun!! The food was delicious and the cooking space and view were so gorgeous. Rocco and Carla were the best!! They gave us some of their homemade wine and clementine liquor which were both delicious. My husband and I could not stop talking about how delicious everything was. If you’re in Praiano or a nearby area, do yourself a favor and cook with Carla and Rocco!!!
John_M, May 2024
Rocco and Carla were excellent hosts. We’ve been making pasta at home for the last two years but could never quite get the dough right. Carla gave us tips as a former chef that we’ll be able to use for years to come!
Diana_M, May 2024
Our hosts Rocco and Carla were amazing and so hospitable! We learned a lot and had a great time -- and meal! Highly recommend!
Minseon_L, Sept 2023
The main issue was that we were not engaged in the actual cooking process. She prepared the bland sauces and cooked the pasta without engaging us. We also felt that they were annoyed that we were there and intruding in their personal space as the event was in their home. The Viator ratings do not match our experience at all. The pictures shown seemed like a completely different environment and food pictures so much better than our food. Felt like they wanted us leave.
Response from Host, Sept 2023
Your review surprises us, we respect all opinions but this time we just don't understand. We were kind right from the start, we reassured you despite your 45 minute delay, we welcomed you into our home in the kitchen where you followed the cooking step by step. We talked about our family, your job, your well-deserved pension and many other things as we always do. Finally you also met our son and played with him. We accompanied you halfway and greeted you warmly. You even left us a tip. It may be that one of our speeches has been misinterpreted (difficult because our speeches in Italian mainly concern our son, whether he has eaten, slept or what he is doing downstairs), we will never dream of speaking badly about our guests, on the contrary we think as long as it's lucky to have people from all over the world. As for the other reviews, they are reviews of our guests to whom we offered the same service, the photos are also of our guests, we do not publish photos by choice (many delegate the work to a professional photographer who can disguise reality) we do not I want this, but we're sure you've seen photos of other experiences online. We remain at your disposal for any clarification.
