What you can expect
Crossing the threshold of Palazzo Acampora is like entering another era: noble stucco, large halls and the silent echo of centuries of history still alive within these walls in Agerola, in the heart of the Amalfi Coast. Yet it is in Nonna Adele's hidden kitchen, now led by Michelin-starred chef Vincenzo Guarino, that a truly unique gastronomic experience comes to life, involving all the senses. A picturesque journey where culture, conviviality and passion for authentic Mediterranean cuisine come together.
Your day begins with a guided tour of the historic palazzo, which reveals the secrets of one of the area's most enchanting residences. You will then stroll through the palace garden, a carefully cultivated oasis, where you will personally pick fresh seasonal vegetables to use in your menu.
Under the guidance of Chef Guarino, you will enter the residence's historic kitchen, where Nonna Adele's culinary legacy comes to life with elegance and authenticity. You will learn to make three iconic dishes of the Campania tradition: eggplant parmigiana, a symbol of home and family; handmade gnocchi or stuffed ravioli, soft and comforting; or fresh pasta, made the old-fashioned way: by hand, with simplicity and love. Every gesture, every ingredient tells a story.
The menu includes:
- Gnocchi with tomato and basil
- Melanzane alla parmigiana (eggplant/aubergine bake)
- Caprese cake
Alternatively, you can choose ravioli alla caprese or handmade 'ndunderi. The menu may vary depending on the season and the availability of ingredients.
For those seeking an even more exclusive touch, the experience can be enhanced with a private visit to the palazzo's historic cellar or with an additional artisanal cheese-making session, where a local master will guide you in the preparation of fresh fior di latte.
Your experience ends in the most refined way: at the table. In the palazzo's majestic dining room, you will savor the dishes prepared together with the chef and the other guests, perfectly paired with a carefully curated selection of local wines, including labels from Marisa Cuomo and Antica Radice. A toast to the flavor, memory, and timeless beauty of cooking made with hands and heart.
