They had a good selection but you do have to use google photo/translate to see the menu in English. The customer service was amazing and they tried to help anyway they could! They were also pretty quick. Food was delicious! We got a board, pasta and duck. I would go again!

While visiting the town of Vernazza - Cinque Terre, my party and I stumbled upon this quaint wine…read moreshop just a stone's throw from the train station. This a great place to do a little wine tasting and to pick up some wine from the Cinque Terre region. One of the wines we sampled and immediately purchased was the Sciacchetra, a dry dessert wine produced only in the Cinque Terre. I'm not usually a fan of dessert wine, but I enjoyed the Sciacchetra. This wine is not exported out of the area due to the limited production quantity, so you should buy it if you are in the area. Vineria Santa Maria was one of the few places that allowed you to sample the wine for about 9 euro. They offered a bottle for about 33 euro and I noticed that this variety can easy go up to 60 to 80 euro per bottle. You can also purchase other varieties of white wine from Cinque Terre and the surrounding regions as well. If I ever find myself back in Vernazza, I will definitely stop in for more wine from Vineria Santa Maria.

And plus, this region of Italy is known for their pesto so why not make some of our own and create memories. The class is about 2 hours long and comes with all the ingredients to make the pesto. lunch and drinks were also included. Our instructor, who's also the owner taught us some great techniques so we can also make the best pesto at home. Just simple fresh ingredients and a good time. There was also a contest for whoever makes the best pesto. Whoever makes the best, wins a prize !!! We also got entered in to a dance competition. And guess who won? Yours truly. This was truly a one of a kind experience. We had so much fun learning, eating, drinking, and shaking our tail feathers all while having the best view of Manarola.

We decided to do their famous pesto-making class, and honestly, this ended up being such a fun, enjoyable, and entertaining experience. The owner, who leads the class, was so approachable and eloquent, and I really loved that it wasn't just about making pesto. He actually took the time to explain the ingredients, the tradition, and the proper way to make it, so the whole thing felt surprisingly educational while still being very relaxed and fun. Music was great, lots of energy, beautiful views, and just a really happy, social vibe, that was the atmosphere. You're basically making pesto while overlooking one of the most picturesque views in Cinque Terre, so it's hard not to have a good time. At the end, you get to enjoy the pesto you made completely from scratch with a really good-size charcuterie board with fruits, cheeses, cold cuts, bread... Would I come here expecting a Michelin-worthy meal? No. But would I recommend it for the experience, the view, the ambience, and a fun afternoon in Manarola? Absolutely. Sometimes it's not just about teh food-- and Nessun Dorma is definitely one of those places.
