Cooking with a View - as authentic as you can get for a cooking class!

Anna is a saint and a nonna you’d want to have in your family. Opening her home, with a breathtaking view, was so very special. Anna walked us through recipes start to finish and educated us along the way. It was lovely, she was lovely, the food was lovely. A great addition to a trip in Liguria region.

Only recommended

The cooking class with Anna in Liguria was an absolute highlight! Anna is an incredibly friendly, open and authentic Italian woman who brings a wonderful ease to the entire experience. We prepared a delicious 3-course meal together, with Anna always responding to our needs and wishes. In advance, we were allowed to express our food preferences, and the result was simply fantastic! It was a great mix of learning and enjoying – a perfect dining experience in Liguria that I can recommend to anyone. She herself takes a lot of photos during this and will send them to us. We got personalized recipes for this. Great!

What a great cooking experience

What a wonderful day we had with Anna. Such a warm host. We felt like we were at home with our cousin. cooking. She has a wealth of knowledge of the history of food in the region and did everything possible to accomodate, what we were looking for. This was a bucket list thing for my wife, who absolutely loves cooking and I had a great time too. If your wife or partner loves cooking or wants to learn more about the art and you love your wife or partner.......then do this together, you won't be disappointed. 5 stars to Anna.

A fantastic way to spend an afternoon!

We had an amazing time cooking with Anna. She was engaging, friendly, and a joy to be around as we prepared some delicious dishes together. On top of that, we were fortunate to meet a fun couple from Denmark who shared our passion for cooking. I highly recommend Anna’s class – it’s a fantastic way to spend an afternoon!

Lovely experience when travelling to Liguria!

Anna is an amazing host and very easy to talk to. We’ve really enjoyed cooking the food together and listening to her stories. Her garden has a beautiful view over the city, which makes eating the homemade diner even more special!

A Beautiful Evening in the Hills of Liguria

Anna is such a kinda and patient host! We had a blast making veggie Pansotti with a flavorful Ligurian walnut sauce, lovely stuffed roasted veggies, and a roasted meat course along with a delicious layered dessert with figs and rum-soaked amaretti. We learned a ton! Her home is beautiful, with a stunning view of the coastline and the city below. Fresh herbs picked straight from her garden for the dishes! We spent several marvelous hours here and would love to come back. Thank you Anna!

The best cooking class ever !

We loved every minute we spent with Anna in her home in the village of Cogorno. Anna is a very good cook and teacher and the Ligurian dishes we cooked we will try again when we get home. Making gnocchi was especially fun and so was fried zucchiniflowers, a dish we only tasted once before. We wanted the lesson to be in Italian to improve our language and Anna was extremely patient and a good teacher in that area as well. Thank’s again Anna. This was by far the best day of our time in Chiavari, Liguria.

Best cooking class ever!

This is the best ever cooking class. It gives you the flavor of Italian life to go along with the incredible food. Anna makes you feel at home, in her home while sharing recipes and techniques, tricks of the trade and style in a warm and friendly manner. She was easy to work with planning our menu and prepared a beautiful pamphlet of our meal for us to take home. We loved every second of this cooking class and couldn’t recommend her more highly. Grazie Mille Anna.
