Southern Italian cooking classes in Bowral

Dear followers and supporters,

Unfortunately, due to family health-related reasons, we must suspend classes for an indefinite period. We will be emailing purchasers of unredeemed gift certificates to make arrangements for a refund.

We have been both thrilled and humbled by the amazing support and feedback we have received. It has been a privilege and joy sharing experiences and the journey with you. 

Our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience and disappointment. We hope to reconnect in the cucina in the near future.

Learn to master traditional recipes and techniques in our Southern Highlands home

Discover genuine Southern Italian cooking inspired by the Mezzogiorno – the collective name for the eight distinct regions of the South: Abruzzo, Basilicata, Calabria, Campania, Molise, Puglia, Sicily and Sardinia. Each area offers a unique gastronomic landscape, influenced by the civilizations that have flourished there over centuries, including Phoenicians, Greeks, Arabs and Normans. At Cucina Calabria, we introduce you to the diverse and time-honoured culinary traditions from this remarkable part of Italy.
