Cooking in Lecce - We were warmly welcomed to our cooking class, held in a lovely old country home. All the ingredients were from the garden. We made tagliatelle, risotto, zucchini appetizer and tiramisu. Our hosts were lovely and taught us many new cooking tricks. The food was served as our dinner and was delicious. Many thanks for a lovely time!

A Highlight of our Trip - We loved this experience! Matilde and Carlo were gracious hosts in their beautiful home, and we had a lovely evening. Matilde is a skilled cook and a wonderful teacher, so we got the hang of making the pasta quickly. She then cooked our pasta as part of a beautiful dinner using products from her garden and together with wine and other accompaniments we enjoyed an altogether spectacular meal. Highly recommend - you won’t be disappointed!

Family feast - What a beautiful experience. We figured out the address wasn't in the heart of Lecce but just outside at Via Costantino Girardengo 3, Lecce, 73100, Lecce, Puglia, Italia. Or also known as Un Bel Casino. We felt like family! We laughed and ate together. The lessons we learned will last us a lifetime. I'm so excited to get to make the pasta back home in Canada for friends and family! Very beautiful property and family. Well worth it and highly recommended ❤️

Amazing Experience - Amazing experience! Matilde was great in providing direction and making pasta making less daunting. The food was delicious despite our imperfect pasta shapes. Was an engaging and fun experience in a beautiful villa. There's a generous table of food that would satisfy even those with ample appetites.
