The entire restaurant is available to guests: from the preparation at the work table for handmade pasta, in the kitchen at the stove, up to lunch.
For making pasta: a long oak and iron workbench. Into the kitchen you’re embraced by the vibrant colors of Salento. The space is also equipped with steel workbenches and elegant marble countertops.
The starvaulted rooms feature classic crystal chandeliers and air conditioning. Also have an old record player where you can listen to LPs by famous Italian singers like Mina, Celentano, and Battisti.
At the work counter in the dining room, you’ll learn how to make hand made fresh pasta. In the kitchen, we’ll cook traditional dishes with ancient flavors, typical of Puglia’s culinary heritage.
Lunch

Our Traditional Cooking Class ends with a lunch that you will have prepared almost entirely with your own hands. Giorgio and Rosalba control your learning and activities… food is no joke!
Meals

The menu also includes drinks and dessert: Leccese Spumone ice cream with hazelnuts and chocolate flavors, stuffed with salted chocolate soft chunks.
Alcoholic Beverages

The dishes are paired with a selected bottle of Salento wine, chosen by Giorgio Grassi according to your preferences. With dessert, at the end of lunch, we’ll serve coffee and limoncello.

Private transportation
The tomato sauce needed for some dishes can't be made during the class, it takes too long to cook!
