What's on Villa Elvira?


 

Program - Villa Elvira

It's possible to create your own personalized program combining cooking classes with escursions (Portofino, Cinque Terre, Portovenere etc).

We are specialized in small, 2 to 10 person classes working together with our Cooks to create a truly "personal" and behind-the scenes-experience.

Our it's a full experience, a combination of food, wine, entertainment, laughter, exploration, the best of all .

Enjoy a full day, hands-on cooking lesson with our chefs for an introduction to authentic Ligurian recipes. Discover step-by-step how to make a satisfying, full Italian meal from appetizers to dessert, including the art of making pasta fresca. Learn to create such pastas as ravioli, trofie, gnocchi in this, hands-on pasta-making adventure. After you prepare your pasta, our chefs will use it to prepare tantalizing sauces such as fresh basil pesto, and other sauces.

Recipes vary according to the season, utilizing only the freshest ingredients available and providing you with a deeply individual Ligurian experience.

The best part is the conclusion: taste the success of your creations.
