Forever spoiled for pesto! - We did the most amazing pesto class in Manorola with Yvonne of @apiedecampu.experience. She was very knowledgeable, professional and fun, completely worth history and a slide show, and was encouraging during the pesto prep. The wine was also the perfect accompaniment. I highly recommend this class - and now I want to do the wine tour and tasting too!

Delightful - Set out by train for the short ten minutes journey from La Spezia to Manarola. Strolled up the hill from the train station for about fifteen minutes. Just before reaching the car park there is a pathway down a slight hill to the left - take that and you will arrive at A Pie De Campu. Yvonne was lovely, friendly and very knowledgeable - we learned a lot about making pesto and the importance of using good quality ingredients in the right proportions. We sampled our own hand made pesto with fresh focaccia - absolutely delicious and lovely wine from the region. Thanks for such a wonderful experience. A must for cooking enthusiasts.
