About this tour
Learn to roll gnocchi or sheet pasta from a Sorrento-born cook, then eat what you've made on a terrace facing Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples. Three hours covers the fundamentals of local technique—how they build flavour into each dish—plus a glass of DOC wine and a proper lunch. Hotel pickup included. A hands-on afternoon you'll actually remember, not staged for cameras.
Highlights
- Roll gnocchi or fresh pasta with a local chef

What to expect
You'll arrive at a family-run kitchen where the chef walks you through dough-making, shaping, and sauce-building. Expect flour on your hands and real instruction—they'll correct your technique and explain why it matters. Once lunch is ready, you move to the terrace. You sit, eat the pasta or gnocchi you made, sip wine, and watch the light change on the water. It's unhurried. Three hours total, with most of the second half spent eating and talking rather than cooking.
Good to know
Wear clothes you don't mind staining. Vegetarian and dietary requirements can be accommodated with notice. Children under 18 cannot have wine but get soft drinks. Service animals welcome. The school is family-run, so it operates on a relaxed schedule.
