Pasta & Sorrento Cuisine Cooking Class with Pickup

Make ravioli, fried pizza and tiramisu in a Baronial villa kitchen overlooking the coast.

A hands-on cooking class at Villa del Barone in Sorrento where you prepare four dishes from scratch (fried pizza Montanara, fresh pasta ravioli Capresi, Sorrento chop and seasonal vegetables), then eat what you've made for dinner with drinks included. Hotel pickup and drop-off are part of the price, as is a chef apron and recipe book to take home. Children from age 6 are welcome. The class runs about four hours.

The experience

You're picked up from your hotel and driven to Villa del Barone, a Baronial house on the Amalfi Coast with gardens and views that anchor the whole afternoon. The kitchen is where the work happens: a chef walks you through each dish, hands-on from start to finish. You'll shape fried pizza dough, roll and fill ravioli by hand, prepare the Sorrento chop (a local meat dish), and plate seasonal vegetables. Nothing is watched from the side. You're doing it, with guidance on technique and the family secrets that make these dishes work.

Once the cooking is done, you sit down to dinner with what you've made, plus wine and limoncello to finish. The meal is part of the class price, not an add-on. You leave with a branded chef apron, a certificate, and a recipe book with the procedures and measurements for everything you prepared, so the dishes don't stay in Sorrento.
