One of the many fascinating aspects of traveling in a foreign country is undoubtedly the rich tradition and culture represented by its regional cuisine.

In Campania, particularly in Sorrento, the local cuisine has retained its tradition of simple and quick preparation, and the use of fresh ingredients enhances the aroma of each dish.

Special focus will obviously be on pizza and pasta in their countless varieties! At the end of the lesson, students can relax around the table and enjoy the delicacies they prepared during the cooking class, accompanied by local wines.
