Fabulous Experience! - Unforgettable night of laughter and cooking. Michele gave us a memory we will cherish! The food was delicious and we learned about cooking pasta ( the simplicity and complexity). Finishing up with a delicious meal. It was more than we expected!

Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to meet local folks in Bari, this class is wonderful. - Do not miss this experience. This was the highlight of our three week trip to southern Italy. Christiana takes you in to her home as a guest. She and her 88 year old mother taught us how to make two kinds of pastas, two sauces for the pastas, and home made cream sauce for the cream puffs we made for dessert. All the while the elder woman was telling us about her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. This was like visiting the Italian relatives you didn’t know you had. After dessert we enjoyed three potent digestives that the elder woman had made from fennel, lemon, and tangerine. When we left Christiana called a taxi for us and escorted us out to the taxi to make sure the driver had the proper address for our destination. If you want to feel like you have experienced the real Bari, this is the thing you should do.

Very nice experience! - A very nice experience!
My daughter and I were the only guests. Our hostess and her live-in mother were very welcoming. We made our own pasta by hand. Knead, roll and twist. Then we had a great meal. We enjoyed a real Italian evening.

Great Fun! - This was a fun class! There were 4 of us, my husband and myself and a mother and daughter from Hungary. We made the dough and then learned 2 different pasta shapes.
Christiana was a charming hostess and generous in sharing her knowledge.

Amazing food, teaching, and company - Christiana and her mother were extremely welcoming and very helpful with teaching pasta making. Not only getting to learn how to make the pasta but also sitting and enjoying an amazing meal with many local dishes made it worthwhile. Also a great way to meet some other people from all over the world. Highly recommend

Loved learning how to make traditional pasta like an Italian - Enjoyed learning how to make traditional Orecchiette pasta of Bari, Italy. We learned from Cristiana and her mama. Small class. Great experience and fun.
After making pasta, we had dinner. The appetizers alone were more than a meal!!! Had 3 course meal, several wines and dessert! What an authentic Italian dinner. Highly recommend this activity when you are in Bari.

Authentic Italian pasta cooking experience - A bit of miscommunication so we were lucky to have found the place on our own. Broker who set up the activity wasn’t really helpful and refused to reach out to the host. The activity was quite causal and super fun. The host Cristina and her mother are wonderful people to meet. The dinner was outstanding and the dessert was heavenly. We would recommend the experience if you like to visit an Italian home cook for an authentic family meal. We really enjoyed learning to make capunti and orecchiette. Would have loved to receive the recipes but it was never sent as promised. Nevertheless we loved the experience and would recommend!

Wonderful experience, highly recommended. Watchout for the distance of the location - Cristiana was an amazing host. Wonderfull food. I can not wait to try it out at home.
I rated it 4 because the place is far from the center.
