Meet Stefanie

Stefanie is a passionate cook based in the heart of Capri, where she offers intimate cooking classes in her welcoming home. Growing up in a family deeply rooted in tradition, Stefanie was surrounded by the comforting rhythm of kneading dough, spirited debates over family recipes, and discussions about what the next meal would be! She learned to cook from her Nonna and mother, and her love language is food, which has a beautiful way of bringing people together. Through this unique culinary experience, Stefanie invites guests to immerse themselves in the flavors, stories, and culture of Capri, offering an authentic journey that blends cooking with shared memories. She has created a space where flour flies, stories are told, secrets are shared, memories are made, and dishes are enjoyed together—all within the warmth of her home. Stefanie’s classes provide the chance to experience Capri through the eyes of a local, creating an unforgettable culinary adventure.

What to expect

Please note menu might vary. If there are particular dishes you are interested in trying, please include your request in the booking form.

Cooking experience: (2-7 guests) Join Stefanie and her mother, Ester, for a traditional cooking class in the heart of Capri, where they will share authentic family recipes and secrets passed down through generations. This hands-on cooking experience highlights the simplicity of local ingredients, traditional methods, and time-honored family recipes. Enjoy a refreshing aperitivo upon arrival before starting your Capri cooking class, where you'll learn to make delicious stuffed ravioli Capresi and Caprese lemon cake from scratch. You will also help assemble the famous eggplant parmigiana. While you cook, Stefanie will offer insights into traditional foods, local ingredients, recipes, and the foundation of the Mediterranean diet. By the end of the class, you’ll have the skills and knowledge to recreate these dishes at home. The entire experience lasts about 3 hours, from hands-on cooking to enjoying the meal and wine pairing afterward.

Experience the true taste of Capri and take home unforgettable memories and culinary skills. Perfect for food lovers, home cooks, and anyone eager to explore authentic Capri cuisine and traditions in a hands-on, immersive setting.

Notes: Stephanie can accommodate a lactose free, gluten free, vegetarian and vegan diet, if informed in advance. Her home is about an 8 min walk from the main center of Capri (Piazza Umberto 1) and can be reached by foot, taxi, bus or by taking the funicolare (a little tram) that takes you to the main center.
