This culinary vacation is a great opportunity to experience the real Italian lifestyle in an enchanting area on the east coast of Genoa, dominated by the Portofino promontory. Anna from Mandilli de Saea is pleased to welcome you to this part of Liguria, offering accommodation in cozy B&Bs located in enchanting spots on the hills and overlooking the sea. She will lead you to experience this region through her cooking lesson and a morning guided tour in the area, including street food and wine tasting. This package will also include a dinner out with Anna's company at one of the typical local restaurants.
During your cooking lesson you will be introduced to the secrets of the Ligurian simple but savory cuisine, while you prepare its typical dishes yourself. The workshop will last from 3 to 4 hours in the afternoon, using local products, while Anna, the cook, will provide a relaxed, learning experience, also creating the same atmosphere as found in typical Italian homes.
You will have real fun preparing Ligurian dishes such as Pansotti with hazelnut sauce, lasagne with pesto, stuffed vegetables, fish casseroles, cheese focaccia, and much more. The cooking session foresees the active involvement of the participants and will end by enjoying a real dinner together, wine included. The meal will be based on the dishes prepared during the class and enjoyed in Anna's cute terraced garden overlooking the gulf.
