5.00I highly recommend this cooking class in the center of historical Lecce. My friends and I loved our beautiful and enthusiastic teacher chef Yliani. She inspired us with her knowledge gleaned from many years of study beginning with her beloved Nonna. Following the lesson we enjoyed our pasta accompanied by several types of organic wines, bruschetta and biscotti. .
Really enjoyable

5.00Wonderful experience in Lecce learning how to make orecchiette pasta! Though the dough we created can also be used for any pasta shape we desire later. We got to try several types of local Salento wines, snacked on some cheeses and focaccia, and at the end got to eat the orecchiette we had made earlier. All in a very low stress environment, and getting to meet and talk with other folks.
so much fun!
