What you'll do

The experience

We start in the garden — you pick what goes into the meal. Then the whole table, made by you: antipasto, handmade pasta, a meat or fish secondo, and dolce. We're right there with you the whole way through. When it's ready, we sit down together and eat everything. Wine on the table, no rush.

What makes us different

not a class. just a really good day.

You won't find a lecture hall or a tourist itinerary. Just a real kitchen, real ingredients, and two friends who've spent years cooking professionally — and this is how we actually eat.

First, the garden.

Ciao! We're Benedetto and Pasquale.

Benedetto spent years cooking in Paris, then came back to the Amalfi Coast - because there's no kitchen like home.
Pasquale worked the restaurant scene here for years before deciding he wanted to do things differently.


We're friends. Madreterra is what happens when two people who cook for a living finally do it the way they actually like to:
good food, good company.
