Our cooking class with Mina was an absolute highlight of our trip to Italy! She is a fabulous host who made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. My husband and I both agreed that the meal we prepared together was the best food we’ve had all week. Mina was able to accommodate our food allergies and picked us up from our hotel. It was an unforgettable, authentic Italian experience!

Best cooking class !

Myself, my mum and my sister had the best time with the girls cooking a classic Italian meal the other evening. We booked the 5 o’clock slot and had the entire class to ourselves which was lovely. Doing in the evening was great as we got the sunset in the background and was still really warm. I would 100% recommend doing this, it’s great fun and the food is amazing 10/10

An Unforgettable Italian Cooking Experience

Nick_S, Sep 2025

This cooking class was one of the most memorable parts of our trip to Italy. It felt less like a class and more like being welcomed into someone’s home to share in the joy of cooking, learning, and eating together. We made classic gnocchi, an incredible eggplant parmigiana, the most delicious tiramisu, and — thanks to a happy little mistake — our now legendary “baby gnocchi.” What made the whole experience even more special was the focus on fresh, homegrown ingredients. Everything we used was bursting with flavor and clearly made with care and love. You could truly taste the difference in every bite. The setting was beautiful, the atmosphere warm and relaxed, and the people were absolutely wonderful. I walked away with new recipes, new friends, and a deeper appreciation for Italian cooking. If you’re looking for something real, fun, and full of heart — this is it. Grazie mille for an incredible day!

An authentic and unforgettable culinary experience with Mina

Lucile_K, Jul 2025

This cooking class with Mina was a real moment of happiness. By an incredible stroke of luck, we were the only participants that day... we were treated to a private course without even asking. We felt like VIPs from the stoves! Mina is absolutely adorable, passionate, and she shares her recipes with a lot of generosity (and patience, thankfully). His mother was also very sweet and caring, which made the atmosphere even more family friendly. And the little secret of this delicious cuisine? Almost all the ingredients came directly from Mina's grandmother's garden. Suffice to say that tomatoes had more sun than me all winter. On the menu, nothing but happiness: fried eggplant with parmesan, lemon and nut spaghetti, gnocchi alla sorrentina... and finally, a tiramisu so good that one could have written a poem. It was so hearty that we left with leftovers, and frankly, it was almost worth a visit just for that. We accompanied all this with an excellent local white wine, and in digestive, a homemade limoncello concocted by the nonna itself. In short, a delicious experience at all levels. I recommend 100%, eyes closed and taste buds wide open!
