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!

Paula welcomed us into her home like we were long last relatives. We had a wonderful time discussing both the history of food in the area and the importance of a healthy diet. Then it was off to making the pasta which was great fun and Paula was so patient as we fumbled about trying to get it made properly. Afterwards we cooked up a delightful meal filled with great conversations. Loved the experience and would highly recommend it.
This was wonderful! Paolo was so welcoming and so knowledgeable. This was one of the highlights of my month in Puglia.

Comfortable and personal. By the end of the evening, it felt like dinner at the house of a friend! Thank you! On our way out of town, we will drop off two bottles of wine for you!

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.
Fantastic experience. We loved our time with Paolo she is amazing her knowledge and suggestions were so helpful to us. It was really therapeutic and relaxing and most of all the food is AMAZING we loved every minute with this kind, gentle and genuine lady.
Merci à Paola pour cette belle expérience. Paola est une personne + que gentille, qui nous accueille dans sa maison pour une découverte des Pouilles et de la gastronomie au top. Fabrication des orecchiettes, confection de la sauce tomates, suivi d’un repas complet avec des spécialités des Pouilles fait maison, un délice. Paola nous raconte aussi toute l’histoire des Pouilles, des colonisations, des villes…
Elle adore ce qu’elle fait et vous passerez un moment magique en sa présence.
N’hésitez surtout pas à vous rendre chez elle, votre expérience dans les Pouilles en sera + qu’enrichit.
Merci Paola
Expérience extraordinaire. Plus qu’un simple cours de cuisine, un moment magique. Immersion sociale, culturelle, géographique, historique tout en cuisinant avec Paola. Généreuse, passionnée, attentionnée, Paola est une encyclopédie. Cuisiner les pâtes typiques des Pouilles et manger un repas savoureux de mets fait d’aliments frais. Je vous le recommande fortement sans hésitez.
Wat een fantastische avond hebben wij gehad bij Paola. Ze weet enorm veel over de geschiedenis van de regio en het eten en is een goede verteller. Het was erg leuk om pasta te leren maken en we hebben het daarna lekker opgegeten met een goed glas wijn. We raden iedereen aan om naar Paola te gaan!
Superleuke ervaring. Gastvrouw is zooo aardig en weet veel over de geschiedenis en eten van deze streek. Lekker eten en genoten van haar verhalen. Zeer aan te raden.
Paola nous a accueillis chez elle, nous étions avec 5 autres personnes anglophones et avons tous passé un agréable moment en sa compagnie. Paola parle très bien le français, elle a vu que l’anglais n’était pas un problème pour nous donc elle a donné le cours en anglais mais a bien entendu proposé de nous traduire le tout. Elle est vraiment passionnée par sa région et l’histoire de sa gastronomie, c’était vraiment passionnant. Nous avons passé un joli moment à déguster du vin, des antipasti et bien sûr à confectionner notre repas.
Elle nous a montré le livre qu’elle a écrit, aucune obligation ou pression pour l’acheter, elle nous a même proposé de prendre en photo les pages qui nous intéressaient.
Je referai cette activité les yeux fermés. Merci Paola pour ce joli moment!
La cuisinière est d une gentillesse et une patience incroyable avec des connaissances hyper intéressantes, vrai ment une belle rencontre et experience.
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
