Private Neapolitan cooking lesson with a Local: choose what to cook, prepare and enjoy dinner

About this activity

Get ready to experience a day as true Neapolitans, listening to our music and enjoying a typical local dinner enhanced by wine and tasty desserts.

This experience is different from classic food tours: you will be the one to choose the products to prepare, with the help of a local host who will guide you in your search for the perfect recipe for your palate!

You'll be greeted with a welcome spritz in Piazza del Gesù, then you'll choose fresh ingredients at the historic Pignasecca market in the heart of the city and arrange the menu based on your tastes and classic Neapolitan goodness designed just for you. The host will teach you a few culinary tricks to make a great dish "Neapolitan style."

But that's not all: you can't leave Naples without first visiting the main points of interest in the nearby historic center, strolling down Via Toledo, visiting the famous Piazza del Gesù Nuovo, its church and the nearby Santa Chiara monastery.

Now, however, it's time to get to the stove! It will all be prepared in a home-style kitchen in the heart of the city: put on your apron and start cooking!

In the meantime, your guide will be more than happy to tell you about the local culinary traditions, the so-called "food culture," and some curious anecdotes about the lifestyle of Neapolitans.

The appetizer generally features bruschetta with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella and typical products. To help you choose, you will be offered two types of menus: a fish-based one with local white wine and a meat-based one accompanied by the timeless red wine, but you can also personally choose first and second courses. Of course, the menu can be customized according to your needs and preferences, in fact there will be no lack of vegetarian, vegan or gluten free alternatives.

At the end of preparation, relax and enjoy the dinner prepared with your own hands.

Naples never shuts down, even at night! If you wish, the local expert will be able to give you the best advice for a pleasant continuation of the evening.

Would you like to organize a cooking class right in your own home? It is possible! Our host will also be at your complete disposal at home.
