About this tour

Spend three hours in a Ligurian kitchen learning to craft pasta and a regional main course alongside a chef who walks you through each step. You'll master traditional techniques, take home written recipes, then sit down to eat what you've made paired with local wine. This is hands-on cooking, not demonstration—you're doing the work, tasting the results, and leaving with actual skills rather than just a full stomach.

Highlights

  • Make fresh pasta from scratch using traditional Ligurian methods
  • Prepare an authentic regional main course under chef guidance
  • Receive written recipes to recreate dishes at home
  • Lunch featuring your own cooked dishes with Ligurian wine
  • Small group or private option available
  • Vegetarian adaptations offered

What to expect

Arrive ready to cook. The chef demonstrates each component—pasta dough, shaping, sauce, main course—then you replicate the technique. Expect flour on your hands and questions answered in real time. Once everything's ready, you'll eat together at a table, tasting your work alongside regional wine. Three hours moves quickly when you're actually cooking rather than watching. Bring an appetite and wear clothes you don't mind getting messy.

Good to know
