What an amazing experience!! I had so much talking and learning about the region and history while learning to make some of the most delicious pasta dishes I’ve had while in Italy. Very fresh. She really is a great host and I felt right at home. Can’t wait to come back to Puglia and visit again! Don’t miss out! Book this one!

She was very personable. She opened up her house to use. She has an excellent knowledge of the history of Italian food. We learned a lot about making different pasta chapels and how to cook them.

Paola was so welcoming in her home and explained everything so well. She didn’t rush us and helped us make the most amazing pasta. We loved every minute and would come back to do it again!

We really enjoyed the whole experience. Our host guided our hands on pasta making class. She opened her house to us with a warm welcome. While we were working she gave us an enlightening history of Lecce and Puglia.

Paola welcomed us home, we were with 5 other English speakers and all had a pleasant time in her company. Paola speaks French very well, she saw that English was not a problem for us so she gave the course in English but of course offered to translate everything. She is really passionate about her region and the history of her gastronomy, it was really exciting.
We had a lovely time tasting wine, antipasti and of course making our meal.
She showed us the book she wrote, no obligation or pressure to buy it, she even offered to take a picture of the pages that interested us.
I'll do this again with my eyes closed. Thank you Paola for this lovely time!

Nous avons vécu une belle expérience tant instructive que gustative.
Paola est une mine de connaissances et elle aime partager avec nous.
Après avoir fabriqué des orecchiettes et des cavatellis nous les avons dégusté accompagné de délicieuses sauces préparées par notre hôte Paola.
Vraiment une belle activité que nous recommandons vivement.
Merci Paola
