This was such a wonderful experience. We loved Annamaria, we learned how to make orrechiette and so much more. I’ve made myself friselle every day since coming home. My 10 year old daughter also loved it. Thank you!!

We had a great time. The cooking was doable but we learned as part of making the pasta. The company was very pleasant and Anna Maria was a great host. This was also well located, right on the main strip in Polignano, and easy to find.

    Daniela our chef was incredibly engaging and knowledgeable. We learned how to make focaccia and rolled out many shapes of pasta, and enjoyed great wine and limoncello. Fantastico!

    A fun evening learning from a lovely lady

    Clive_B, Oct 2025
    It was a fun evening learning some history and top tips to make and cook pasta. Our host was a lovely lady full of stories and passion for local food. The only disappointment is that no copies of recipes are sent out afterwards so please ensure you take notes.

    Dear guest, Thank you for your kind feedback! We are delighted that you enjoyed the evening and our host's passion for local traditions. Thank you also for your suggestion: we will make sure to provide copies of the recipes or notes in future classes so that guests can easily recreate the dishes at home.

    Danielo was fantastic! We learned to make cavatelli & orecchiette. It was hands-on, fun, and very informative. I didn’t find past reviews accurate in that it was very easy to find. 2 hours. Lunch and wine included. A great time!

    What a beautiful experience for our family vacation! Anna Maria was fabulous, welcoming, and knowledgeable! We can't wait to cook orecchiette when we're back home!

    hard to find but worthwhile

    charles_k, Apr 2025
    Difficult location to find. My apple map could not show location and we were in the wrong area. Finally got near where they were, and a nice lady came out to find us and brought us to the class. The chef was friendly and efficient We enjoyed the session

    Family fun

    Tami_R, Oct 2024
    We loved the intimate hands on experience of making pasta in a polignano home. Such fun for the whole family.

    Great experience with Anna Marie. Very authentic.

    Anonymous, Sep 2024
    Anna Marie was fabulous! She gave us some history and had a great sense of humor making it so much fun. We laughed until we cried. Making the orrchiette was more challenging than I thought but Anna Marie was right there to help. And the meal and wine were delicious! I highly recommend this experience.

    Great experience

    katarina_s, Jul 2024
    Great and original experience with really lovely host Ana Maria. Lots of good advices and nice fun for whole family. We also enjoyed being in this experience with one more family, lots od sharing and good laugther. We would warmly recommend also as this one was fairly priced vs some other which went even double up. We had chance to try good local wine and ficcacia.

    Cher pour la qualité

    Alexis_P, Sep 2024
    Instructif mais peu de chose réalisé soit même (la pâte est déjà faite, la sauce aussi…) Pas de réalisation de dessert (alors que c’est dans le descriptif de l’annonce) On mange dans des assiettes en plastique…pas top pour des pâtes maison et vu le prix de l’atelier

    Ein unterhaltsamer und lehrreicher Kochkurs!

    Sebastian_K, Jul 2024
    Was für ein Riesenspaß und endlich können wir selber Pasta machen! Annamaria war eine großartige Lehrerin, die uns Pasta beigebracht hat und nebenbei alle Fragen beantwortet, das Kochen in der kleinen Gruppe hat richtig viel Spaß gemacht - wir können es nur weiterempfehlen!
