After many years as chef/owner of a restaurant, he decided to run a cooking school from his home, enjoying the people who love food, and "eat it with the heart and not just the mouth!" You will start with a visit to the little food shops located in the historic alley of Ravello, strolling through the pedestrian road that crosses the village. Along with Vincenzino, who speaks perfect English, you will meet with the owners of the small shops and be shown how the local people choose their fish, special homemade pasta, vegetables, and local and national wines. Together, you will decide what to buy and cook for your lesson. Then it is on to Vincenzino's home, gloriously situated on a clifftop 350 meters above sea level. You will proceed with the hands-on preparation of your lunch, from the starters to the dessert, wine, water and coffee included. Weather permitting, lunch will be served on the terrace to enjoy the spectacular view of the Mediterranean. The day begins between 9-10am and ends after your meal in the afternoon. US$210. per person, minimum two people « less

We were really looking forward to this experience, and overall I can say it was okay but not what I expected. I think i, like most people, expected to learn to make fresh pasta dough and some secret sauce. None of that. But the reason for this is because the food in this part of Italy is heavy on the... more

My husband and I stayed in Ravello for about a week of our honeymoon late Sept. - early Oct. 2008. I first want to comment on the review of Vincenzo's cooking class, "Worst" class ever. What you are getting from Vincenzo is typical southern Mediterranean fare. In southern Italy, they do NOT use heavy tomato sauces. You won't even find... more

In an attempt to learn the secret behind the delicious food we were devouring in Italy, my sister and I signed up for a cooking class in the picturesque little town of Ravello high in the mountains. The setting was perfect, but the course was far from it. It was just my sister and I and a chef - Vincenzino.... more

We had SUCH a great day cooking with Vincenzo! His apartment is absolutely spectacular and his cooking is extraordinary. He gets you into the kitchen, chopping and dicing and preparing fish -- and then he feeds you what you've learned to make....course after course! He teaches you about every aspect of what you are creating and if you have questions,... more

Today my daughter Catherine (age 7) and I spent an utterly delightful half-day with the charming and talented Vincenzino, who gave us a lovely cooking lesson in his private home. We have been in Italy for 4 weeks, and we've had incredible experiences . . . not one was more memorable, warmer, more charming, more interesting, or more Italian than... more

Vincenzino? It was very informative and I learnt a lot about the preparation of seafood and how to cook it. I was especially happy to then participate in eating it. The surroundings were breath taking and the company special. Thank you very much to Vincenzino & Mario. Terry more

I was at Vincenzino for a cooking lesson as well, it was all organized by Mario of Wagner Tours. The first pleasant surprise was that we were the only ones doing the course. I thought it was such a treat to have Vincenzino's full attention and really learning the wonderful ways of cooking of this amazing region of Italy. I... more

We were fortunate to find Mario of Wagner Tours [--] when we began to plan our trip to Italy. We decided to end the trip with 6 days on the Amalfi coast- a great decision! Mario booked for us the fabulous Villa Maria in Ravello. He also suggested we take a cooking class with Vincenzo. The day was just magical.... more
