Description

Practical courses in each culinary section;
Courses provided in several languages;
The opportunity for the participants, to collect the vegetables for the course, from the organic garden;
Full menu from starter, first and main courses, vegetables to desserts from Amalfitan, Neapolitan and Italian cuisine; what is commonly called "Mediterranean cuisine";
School run by a famous gastronomy historian, author of several books and of renowned culinary recipes.
The initial intention was to teach the true Italian cuisine to the many tourists who visited Ravello as gastronomy is one of the fundamental customs of the people. The great travelers of the past, Goethe, Wagner, Reid, Lawrence, besides discovering the beauty of our villages, learned about customs of our people and our culinary traditions.
This continues to the present day: to travel and visit new countries also means to know the tastes and flavours. On the Amalfi Coast thanks to the mild climate and traditions of a people with over fifteen hundred years of history, there were favorable conditions to develop a pleasant culinary evolution.
Moreover, thanks to the value of the structure, organization and professionalism that "Ravello cooking school" can boast, the idea has proved over time of great interest both nationally and internationally. In fact the school has become a destination for students from all over the world. Many of the weekly courses are attended by professionals, lawyers, doctors, engineers and even chefs. They are particularly popular with Americans, who have come to discover the secrets of Neapolitan cooking.
