What a wonderful way to experience Calabria…through harvesting and cooking at an organic farm near Tropea. The small group was the perfect size and Enzo is a superlative guide. And to top it all off, the pasta we made was delicious. Thank you, Enzo! Rebecca
Grazie, Rebecca. It has been a great pleasure to have in two of my food experiences in Tropea! I wish you all the best. Warm regards. Enzo
The best pasta making experience that you could possibly attend! Enzo the your operator and Serina and Gabriel the owners of the farm were helpful, professional and made the activity so much fun. The food that we ate at the dinner was farm fresh, 95% grown on their farm and 5% from their neighbors with was absolutely excellent and plentiful. There were 4 couples that made the evening special as well. Enzo the operator also provided transportation from our resort , greatly appreciated, and also shared he's family's experiences here in tropea.Book it, you definitely won't regret it! Amazing!!!

A magnificent experience in which you learn to make Fileja pasta as a couple with others. Very immersive and very beautiful. Enzo is a delight. Highly recommended.
Muchas gracias. Hasta la próxima aventura. Un abrazo. Enzo
Thank you Enzo for a wonderful experience and one of the many highlights of our trip to Calabria 💞 The farm/restaurant/shop that hosted this experience was a wonderful family run organic masseria in the Calabrian hills.. We learnt how to make traditional Fileja pasta and filled Cannolis before eating the most wonderful antipasti .. Enzo was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Calabrian’s organic farm to table produce and the staff at the masseria were so welcoming. A must do for food lovers whilst staying in the Tropea area.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a lovely review! I hope the memories—and your new pasta-making skills—bring a little piece of Calabria back home with you. Warmest wishes. Enzo
My girlfriend and I were looking for an exciting and authentic activity near Tropea. We stumbled upon this webshop where you could learn to make Italian pasta from scratch, and thought it sounded exciting, but we weren't entirely sure what we were getting into. We were picked up by a shuttle bus near our hotel and driven to a beautiful place with a fantastic view. This stop lasted about 15 minutes, after which we drove on to the farm where we were going to make the pasta. There were 16 people who signed up (full team), and we were all different nationalities, which was super cool! We spoke with a couple from Canada, some friends from the UK, and a Danish family. The guide was an Italian man who was good at English and explained a lot about the farm and the different raw materials grown on the site. He had good energy and was good at creating conversation. When we were finished with the pasta, we sat down and had an appetizer while the pasta was being cooked by their kitchen. The appetizer was a mass of various delicious Italian tapas. The pasta was served with tomatoes and olives and it tasted mega good. Throughout the event, both red and white wine were also served. The service was so good, and everyone who worked there was so friendly. We also got a small dessert which was cannoli made with their own homemade ricotta cream. At 10 PM we finished eating and were driven back to where we were picked up. It was a fantastic evening with fun, coziness, and educational experiences. Can be 100% recommended. Kind regards 2 girls in their 20s
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed and wonderful review! It’s wonderful to know that you enjoyed meeting fellow travelers from all over the world, learning about our farm-fresh ingredients, and, of course, making and enjoying the pasta! My vision is to connect people! Thank you for the 100% recommendation, and I hope to welcome you back to Calabria again in the future! Warm regards, Enzo
It was a great experience. Enzo told us about Calabria, its geography and food , and really got us interested in the region. The tour around the farm was beautiful and the family that owns it was really welcoming. We made fileja pasta by hand, filled cannolis with ricotta and concluded with an absolutely delicious dinner with local products and produce. Highly recommended for people that want to learn more about the region or just like to make and eat good food!
Thank you so much! You shared the truly vision of the experience, I really appreciate it! I hope to see you again in Calabria. Best regards. Enzo
