Anna has taught us the tricks to making a delicious home-made pasta while enjoying great conversation and plenty of laughter in a family home environment. Anna we cannot thank-you enough for your hospitality. We hope to be back again next year ❤️

    Nona Flora Pasta Class in Sorrento - one of the highlights of our trip

    Joseph_C, Sep 2025
    It was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. Anna made us feel like family, she was so warm and inviting and patient. We had so much fun preparing the 3 different pastas, sauces and tiramisu. We enjoyed different wines while enjoying the meals we prepared. And with the tiramisu we enjoyed the different Italian liqueurs. We made new friends in the class. We got to take our Apron's home to remember this special day.

    Highly recommend

    100% recommend when in Sorrento

    Anna was warm and welcoming. Her establishment is beautiful and sparkling clean. She made us feel like family. I would 100% recommend her cooking class if you are traveling to Sorrento.

    A must do experience!

    Jacqueline_H, Aug 2025
    This is a must do if you are visiting Sorrento! Anna's energy was infectious from the very beginning, and it's clear she is passionate about Italian cooking. Anna not only showed us how to make 3 types of pasta, tiramisu, bruschetta and cocktails over the course of 5 hours, but she explained what she was doing and why at every step along the way. From cooking tips and tricks, to Italian culture and learning from her own nonna and mama, Anna was just so brilliant to learn from. We will take lots of the skills home with us, and will remember the day or a long time to come!

    Highly recommended!!!

    Samantha_M, Aug 2025
    It was an incredible cooking class! I highly recommend it! Extremely well run and a class where you make everything from scratch. We made ravioli, spaghetti, rigatoni and tiramisu. The recipes all come from her grandmother and mother and she has a love for cooking, which is evident throughout the class. The kitchen and utensils are all clean and it is outstanding value for money. We were given delicious bruschetta, lots of wine, limoncello and whisky on top of all the dishes we prepared and ate. This is a cooking class not to be missed, but book early because it gets booked out early.

    Great Family Adventure!

    DeniseandTim_K, Nov 2024
    We had an amazing time as a family on this adventure in Sorrento! Anna was an amazing instructor! Her studio is beautiful and welcoming, and she has every detail covered. We are looking forward to making pasta and ravioli at our next family gathering—we are looking forward to receiving the recipes, too. We highly recommend!

    Fabulous!

    Highlight of our Sorrento visit!

    Anna made this cooking experience so much fun! My daughter and I enjoyed it a lot. The dishes we prepared were simple and delicious. I can't wait to try making them at home. And, of course, the wine was flowing. Thank you for this memory! - Amy and Toni. (Emelia & Tonia)

    So Fun

    Ron_P, Oct 2024
    This was such a fun and unique experience. My wife and I had a great time. Anna truly made this one of best cooking classes we have ever done.

    Amazing

    Mike_S, Sep 2024

    Cooking class with Anna

    shawn_g, Sep 2024
    Anna was engaging and fun! We made outrageously delicious ravioli, with a light red sauce, fettuccini with a lemon pepper butter sauce and tiramisu. It was such a great time. I highly recommend this cooking class!!!

    Anna is the absolute BEST!

    MaryJane_W, Jul 2024
    This was one of our favorite parts of our vacation! This class is an absolute must! My family loved every aspect of the class and especially our aprons. Anna makes you feel like you’re in her home just hanging out. Her recipes were some of the tastiest we had during our entire trip to Sorrento. She even played us our wedding song when she found it in her vinyl collection.

    The true soul of Sorrento

    Amy_T, Jul 2024
    This was our favourite experience in Sorrento. Anna, the host, is incredibly welcoming. She is warm, friendly and very skilled. We learned how to make tiramisu, as well as fettuccine and ravioli, both with an amazing sauce, by hand. We loved hearing Anna's stories and tips for real Italian cooking. We shared our experience with a lovely couple from Canada. We made fantastic memories and definitely recommend this experience to everyone visiting Sorrento. Thank you Nonna Flora's kitchen!

    A must do class in Sorrento

    Robert_O, Jun 2024
    When we travel we like to do food tours and things we don’t often do. We did our first pasta making class at Nonna Flora in Sorrento. It was one of the best experiences we have had. Anna did such an amazing job and the food we prepared was some of the best we’ve ever tasted. You can’t miss this experience if you happen to find yourself in Sorrento.

    Wonderful Experience

    AllisonK, May 2024
    Outstanding experience! We learned so much and made several pasta dishes and different types of pasta. Class was hands on with guidance from chef Anna. The studio was bright and very clean. Anna was a delight! Really enjoyed the wine no and cocktails too. Don’t eat before you go to the class!! Highly recommend!

    Wonderful Italian Experience

    Gillian1213, May 2024
    Such a fun day learning how to make pasta, making several different kinds including ravioli. We made our own sauces for the pasta using all fresh ingredients. We started the class by making tiramisu from scratch, which was the best I have ever tasted. We enjoyed several courses of our own cooking along with wine and liqueurs with dessert. The instructor, Anna, was fabulous sharing her grandmother’s Italian recipes. I would recommend this class to anyone interested in learning some Italian cooking and having a great day with a small group.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS AMAZING CLASS

    Robert_L, May 2024
    What an amazing class! Anna and her partner Giuseppe provided such a truly amazing experience. We learned how to make several different kinds of pasta in the same way Anna did with her Nonna growing up and it was some of the best I have ever had. The class was informative, personal and just an overall unforgettable experience.

    Fun, interactive, delicious! A must-do.

    Ingrid_H, Apr 2024
    If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would! Anna was amazing from start to finish. This class was welcoming, fun, entertaining and geared towards all levels of learning and cooking. We had THE BEST time and our food was delicious!! Anna took her time and kept us full and laughing. If you are ever in Sorrento, YOU MUST take this class! The school also offers pizza making classes!!! You can’t go wrong.

    Perfect Evening

    Ben_B, Jul 2023
    This was the absolute highlight of our trip to Sorrento. Anna really went above and beyond to deliver a perfect experience for my fiancé and I; allowing for embarrassingly different levels of competency in the kitchen. A 3 course meal, nibbles and a cocktail to go with it. We really can't thank you enough and will definitely be back.

    This was the most amazing...

    Ali_L, Jul 2023
    This was the most amazing cooking class!! Highly recommend. Anna and her mother were excellenct chefs and so helpful and fun. Would definitely do this again!!

    Great cooking Course

    John_R, Jun 2023
    Anna was a brilliant host. If you value an authentic cooking experience, sharing local customs and family traditions then this is definitely the Course for anyone. We thoroughly enjoyed out time cooking with Anna.

    Incredible Private Cooking Class

    Katherine_M, Jun 2023
    What an incredible experience!! Anna and her mom were absolutely amazing. They walked us through each step to create a delicious homemade Italian dinner and dessert. We had so much fun cooking and laughing. They treated us like family.

    Fantastic 3 hours

    Carol_B, May 2023
    What a great time we had. Anna is lovely, like a friend showing you how to cook. We had cheese meat & bread & lime cello cocktail to have as went went along, made fresh meatballs, fresh pasta & tiramisu then ate it all for lunch. We had local wine & beer to try as well. So looking forward to trying to make these at home. Great experience - don’t hesitate just go

    A fabulous and delicious evening at Nona Flora’s!
