We meet in Tramonti if you have your own car or in Maiori and we go by my private car to the village of Tramonti (20 minutes far). Along the way we can admire all the vineyards terraces, limestone walls that climb the top of the mountains, the gorgeous nature around us.
We reach the farm, a unique spot: imagine an home restaurant surrounded by vineyards.
Raffaella, the owner will welcome us with a smile! We will go with her in her garden to choose and pick up vegetables.
She will show us how to prepare the typical local pasta, the dowg and how to give the shape.
Her family owened a mozzarella cheese factory, so she will show us how to make this special cheese.
After the cooking lesson we relax on the terrace where we have lunch: antipasto with fresh vegetables, salami and cheese, home made pasta, a second course and the dessert, wine and limoncello.
This is a thriumph of the taste, an ectasy for the senses!
