Bring the vibrant heart of Naples into your kitchen with a menu that celebrates the city’s passion for bold, generous cooking. These are the kinds of dishes you’d find at a Sunday family table in Naples — colourful, comforting, and made for sharing.
In this hands-on class, you’ll learn to make:
Caponata Napoletana
A sweet-and-sour mix of eggplant, peppers, olives, and capers, bursting with southern sunshine
Frittata di Spaghetti
A golden pasta pie made from leftover spaghetti, eggs, and cheese, a beloved dish born from the Neapolitan talent for never letting good food go to waste
Crocchette di Patate
Fluffy potato croquettes with a gooey cheese centre and a crispy golden crust, irresistible from the very first bite
Participants will work in pairs and small groups, and leave with recipes, new skills, and the flavours of Naples to recreate at home.

Erica Foffi was born and raised in Rome, where cooking was part of daily life, a way to connect, celebrate, and show love. After moving to Toronto, she began inviting friends into her kitchen to share the traditional dishes she grew up with. What started around her table soon became a way to teach others about the richness of Italian home cooking and the joy of gathering together around good food.
Her classes are hands-on, welcoming, and rooted in tradition. Erica focuses on simple, honest food made with care, from street food classics to handmade pastas, and on creating a relaxed space where anyone can feel confident and inspired in the kitchen.
