5.00This will be one of the best memories of our trip to Italy! We were picked up and dropped off from our hotel and taken to a beautiful restaurant overlooking the Sorrento bay. The entire experience felt relaxed, fun, and authentic. We made multiple dishes that were delicious and that I feel I can go home and make confidently after the class! It was our wedding anniversary and Claudio made it a very special class for us.

5.00We had the most wonderful time on our cooking class. We were picked up in downtown sorrento and the van took us to a restaurant with stunning views of the coastline. Mina was our instructor along with Daniela and we prepared 4 Neapolitan dishes. The instructions were simple and the kitchen layout for the class was perfect. Our teen daughter loves to cook therefore enjoyment was to be anticipated but our son has never cooked and he had the most wonderful time kneading the gnocchis as well as kneading and stuffing the raviolis.

5.00What an awesome experience. We were picked up and brought to the restaurant for the cooking class. It started with a glass of Prosecco and stunning views of the water. Mina was our instructor along with Daniella and made the experience so informative and fun. It was one of our favorite things we did in Sorrento. We made pizza, gnocchi, ravioli, and tiramisu. It ended with homemade limoncello. The sunset, atmosphere and friendly staff, made it a great time.

5.00We had the most incredible experience with our cooking class! It was the off season, in February, so we were very lucky and our class was a private one with just myself and my partner. Our teacher was wonderful! She was engaging and fun and the food we made was delicious! Highly recommended!

5.00This was the most amazing experience. The food is unlike anything I've ever tasted. So delicious and so plentiful. The wine was flowing. It was a very special class with so much warmth from the chef. Even the driver was warm and courteous. Highly recommend - you learn to cook multiple traditional dishes.

5.00We booked a cooking class at antico frantoio through the Habitat Eco Farm. We were welcomed by Mina, the queen of the restaurant with a bottle of prosecco. She gave us the course together with joker Claudio and sous-chef Daniela. They all loved food and cooking. It was a real passion. We saw that clearly. I was together with my boyfriend in the class and we got the best table in the restaurant with a view over Sorrento. The open kitchen was marvelous to see and everyone was so talented. First we got a demo of how Claudio makes his signature style pizza. Then we had a break where we could eat the pizza and drink prosecco. Third we made gnocchi, ravioli and eggplant parmigiana. This was a lot of fun! In our break they made us bruschetta. It was so good! Finally, we made tiramisu with limoncello. Mina showed us how limoncello was made. They have an amazing shop where you can buy oils, jams, graze, pasta etc. We loved it so much that we had it shipped to the Netherlands. After this, we had time to eat all we created. It was so good! And so much fun! 10 out of 10! Thank you Queen Mina, Joker Claudio and sous-chef Daniela. We enjoyed it a lot!
Great Food and Great Fun!
