Orecceptional! - Excellent experience. We learnt more than just how to make orecchiette but how to complete an entire meal in a proper way, from the pasta > sauce > components of the dish itself. Daniele was an exceptional teacher and made for a very relaxing and fun few hours. Highly recommend!

Good vibes - So much fun in this pasta making class! Perfect sized group of about 10 people. Danielle was such a welcoming and cool host- incredibly knowledgeable and got everyone involved while keeping things super fun. Generous glasses of chilled red wine added to the great vibes. Would 100% recommend

Loved this! - I absolutely loved this pasta-making class! The experience was fun, hands-on, and so rewarding. The instructor Annamaria was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also warm, patient, and encouraging. She broke down each step of the process in a way that was easy to follow, making even the most intricate techniques feel approachable. I appreciated the little tips and tricks she shared—things you’d never find in a recipe book! By the end, I felt confident rolling, shaping, and cooking my own pasta from scratch. The atmosphere was welcoming, and her passion for cooking was contagious. I left not only trying the delicious pasta we made, but also with the inspiration and skills to make it again at home. Truly a wonderful experience—I’d highly recommend this class to anyone! Grazie Annamaria!

Must event - exceptional experience - This was an amazing experience. The wonderful host has so much knowledge and makes the 2 hours so much fun! We learnt how to make pasta and everyone joined in. Our host then offered jugs of cooled red wine. She then cooked the pasta so we had a great lunch with cooled wine. This is a must event if you visit Polignano a Mare

Fantastic - As soon as I arrive the tone is set , Anna Maria welcomes us with a smile and her little singing accent! The place is cozy it looks like in the kitchen of the Nonna! The course is held in a good mood , in small committee , we learn how to do the orecchiette but not that! Anna Maria tells us anecdotes about her region and Italian gastronomy. Small aperitifs and tasting the fruit of our work , we leave with the recipe in mind, ready to try again at home!
