Trade-off: Minimum two guests; no bathroom. (last checked September 15, 2026) ## Overview Do you love pasta, pesto and tiramisù? This class is the perfect opportunity to learn how to make our local handmade pasta (Trofie), its traditional condiment (Pesto Genovese), and the creamy tiramisù, prepared following my experience, the traditional technique, and my grandmother’s original recipe. The experience takes place in my private 16th‑century home in Riomaggiore (Cinque Terre), located in the heart of the village. My dog Ettore and I will welcome you with a glass of prosecco before the class begins. After a few steps inside the building, you’ll reach the roof terrace on the third floor, where you can enjoy a stunning view over the village and the sea. The iconic colorful tower‑houses, built along the steep hillside, offer a unique and picturesque panorama—especially when admired from above or from the water. ## Before you book - Meeting point: Via Tralcantu 37/B, - Min. 2 to book: not for solo travellers - Starts 17:00: one departure a day - Food included: see what is included - Age 14+: minimum age to join ## Key facts - Price: from €108 per person - Duration: 2h 30m - Rating: 4.87/5 from 75 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Recommended by 97% of travellers (share of four- and five-star reviews) - Operator: Cooking with Luca - Minimum booking: 2 travellers at this price ## What's included - Fresh trofie with vibrant pesto, a creamy homemade tiramisù and a glass of local white wine—an authentic taste of Liguria. - A welcome glass of prosecco and local white wine will be served to pair with the dishes.
