Ladies and gentlemen, roll up
your sleeves, loosen your ties, take off your suit jackets and don the Cucina Casalinga aprons.
Sally Maraventano, owner of Cucina Casalinga, chef and cookbook author will instruct and
guide your group of up to 20 people in the hands-on cooking techniques of Italian cuisine from
basic sauces to pizza to risotto. Cook and learn together with your colleagues and team leaders while
creating a fabulous lunch or dinner to be shared after the lesson. Experience an off-premise outing
with the relaxing pace and comfort of a pastoral setting and Italian home cooking lessons to “boot”!
After the class, feast on the fruits
of your labor. During mild weather enjoy the aroma of pizza baking in the outdoor wood-burning oven on the patio
overlooking the formal Italian herb
garden. During winter months dine around the family style table intimately tucked between the
kitchen and the comforting, crackling fireplace. Guests enjoy the conversation and interact in a relaxed setting.
