5.00Had a great morning with Pierangela where she taught me how to make two local pastas and the most delicious tiramisu. She and her husband were very welcoming and provided gorgeous pasta sauces, bread, cheeses, and other lovely dishes (and of course Prosecco!). Looking forward to receiving the recipes so I can try them at home. Recommend this class highly to get a real taste of local cooking.
Pierangela was a great...

5.00Pierangela was a great host. I’m very inexperienced at cooking, so she had to show me some of the (very) basics. If you had told me I’d make pasta by hand in my life I would not have believed you. The pasta meal and tiramisu tested excellent (due to both of our efforts) and the appetizer spread she provided was perfect.
Lovely experience in a local’s home

5.00An unforgettable time spent with Katia and her family - so welcoming, lighthearted and authentic We learned a lot about pasta making, tasted delicious food and wine and we were made to feel so welcome in Katia’s home ❤️ It wasn’t rushed and so relaxed. Katia really cares about making sure you have the best time and we really did! Katia was great at being in close contact with us so we arrived easily with very clear information. It was also lovely meeting Katia’s partner, her son and mum 😃 we chatted for hours! Lunch was fantastic - we never expected to have such a wonderful time! Our first cooking experience in Italy and it was amazing! Both Roddy and I highly recommend this! 🥰 very special ❤️🇮🇹 Thank you Katia so much

5.00Katia and her family are wonderful. We had the most amazing day. The pasta making was fun and the lunch fabulous. We were made to feel so welcome and felt like part of the family. There was a mix up with the location and Katia and her husband actually came and picked us up. I would recommend everyone visiting Lecce do this tour !
Experience not worth the value of the Viator experience

3.00The cost of this experience was astronomical for what we got‼️Francesca was lovely 👍There was limited hands on experience with sauces. And actual cooking. Would have enjoyed a family style experience of eating with a family.

5.00What a joy, chatting with beautiful Italian people,eating organic entrees, learning the art of making pasta & drinking wine.We loved finding out about the culture of Puglia, listening to Lucia singing while her partner played the tambourine was fantastic! The best part was we all sat down and ate dinner which was lovely.I recommend this experience as I know how to make pasta and tiramisu! Thanks Lucia, you put a lot of effort into making sure we had a great time. We drove 10min outside of Lecce, they give the address on the day! It was easy to get to and Lucia is great to communicate with on WhatsApp.Thank you!

5.00Highly recommend Pierangela and her cooking class! We had a wonderful evening cooking two types of pasta and a tiramisu. Pierangela and her family warmly welcomed us into their home for the class and provided us with some of their family wine and delicious antipasti. We will definitely be using the recipes from our class to cook back home. A wonderful experience with lovely hosts!
