The amazing experience!❤️ - The atmosphere was great, homely, we felt wonderful. The time spent talking with the wonderful family of our hosts revealed many new and interesting things about their way of life, culture and traditional cuisine. And the fact that we prepared pasta ourselves, which we then consumed, was a great experience! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!❤️😍

Like a delightful dinner with friends - We had a great experience with Enza and Antonio and their charming daughter. This was the best combination of cooking lesson and casual family dinner. The food was all local, including flour from the local mill, tomato sauce from tomatoes grown in the family garden, and limoncello from their lemon trees. Delicious, cozy, and so much fun.

Best Cooking Class Ever! - This was such a lovely experience from start to finish! Very easy for any size group. You arrive to their home. They are so welcoming. We had a perfect spritz and then then got to make pasta. Everything came from their garden or their family’s garden. It was so delicious! The gave us great recommendations for what else to do in Puglia, a full itinerary, and were just the warmest and most welcoming people! A highlight of our trip to Puglia.

Great Experience - It was great! We booked during the off season and were the only people at the Cooking School, so we got a royal treatment. We started off tasting some delicious appetisers and then Enza taught us how to make orecchiette and macaroni pasta which she cooked in a delicious tomato sauce. The meal ended with a homemade berry tart. Antonio videotaped the evening which was a pleasant surprise. Highly recommend this Cooking School!

An Evening to Remember! - What a great way to be introduced to the cooking and flavors of Salento. The hosts, Enza and Antonio, greeted us with warmth, Prosecco and hors dourves...and the evening only got better! We laughed at ourselves making macaroni and orecchiette. Thank you Enza for your patient encouragement! The dinner with different sauces for our pasta was shared in true Italian family style. Thank you for making our trip near Lecce

Great experience - It was a great evening with Enza and Antonio. We learned how to make orecchiette and macaroni, which were then eaten during a delicious meal together. We had an unforgettable evening. If we travel to Puglia again, we would definitely book the course again.

The best cooking class we've ever taken - This was by far the best cooking class we've ever taken. Enza and Antonio's hospitality was outstanding, and the food was simply divine. The villa is stunning, and we felt right at home. Can't wait to come back!
