- Daniela was an incredible hostess. Our entire visit was so much fun and we learned so much! The food was delicious and all because of Daniela! It was the highlight of Italian visit! Thanks Daniela.
- Excellent cooking experience with Daniela! I felt so welcome in her Home, and the food was the highlight of my two weeks in Italy. Everything was easy, fresh, and delicious. I highly recommend this experience!
- A wonderful evening spent with Daniela and her husband cooking traditional Italian recipes. Very welcoming
- cooking with daniela was great. got a warm welcome by her and husband gianni and was invited to cook a few traditional ligurian dishes with them. the italian‘s love for food is really infectous, would also recommend for professional chefs on vacation around there as there is still always something to learn from the locals :) would definitely go there again!!
- The class was great: we tried a lot of recipies, including gsabei, gnocchi, tiramisu. I also asked a lot of questions about other dishes that I have cooked and got great advice. I was glad that I took a taxi from the train station: it saved a lot of stress when reaching the class. I really appreciated the chance to talk over the food that we made, and it was very nice to see the less touristy parts of the region.

Daniela
Cesarina from 2018Location: La Spezia Languages: Italian and EnglishThe city of La Spezia is located practically on the border between Liguria and Tuscany. It is the ideal starting point to visit the splendid Cinque Terre and other characteristic villages in the area, such as Lerici and Porto Venere. With the sea in front of the city and the mountains behind, it is fascinating to admire it from above from San Giorgio castle, and experience its unique flavor through its culinary offerings, which reflect a combination of land and sea, evolution and experimentation. Seated around Daniela's table, you’ll experience a procession of traditional recipes. Our Cesarina offers the classic cuisine of La Spezia, the result of the fusion of different traditions from the neighboring regions. Daniela's prepares her dishes using simple ingredients. However, once combined, they give life to both strong and delicate flavors at the same time, recipes like 'sgabei' – raised bread dough that is cut into strips, fried, stuffed with cheeses or locally cured cold cuts, 'muscoli' (mussels) in a variety of versions and, of course, an absolute must, 'pesto' (sauce made from basil).
