More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You arrive at a sun-bright farmhouse in Pianillo, the sea a distant, shining promise below. Wind pushes the scent of lemon groves and oregano toward the open kitchen, where the chef lays out bowls of flour, milk, and eggs on a long wooden table. For the next two hours you work with your hands—kneading dough, stretching curds, and layering espresso-soaked ladyfingers—while terraces and cliffs keep watch.
