Food Tour: discover the best places where to taste the finest local food & wine
Shared Experience
Your experience
Let me take you on a journey through Montescaglioso, my hometown – a place full of history, ancient churches, charming alleys that smell of freshly baked bread, and above all… people who truly love their land.
We’ll start with a market tour, walking through the heart of the town and stopping by local food artisans: cheesemakers, bakeries, wine shops. You’ll have the chance to taste and purchase genuine products made with care and tradition. Along the way, we’ll hunt for fresh vegetables and seasonal produce, handpicked from market stalls and small neighborhood shops. Then, we’ll head to my home, where I’ll guide you through a hands-on cooking class. I’ll be there every step of the way, making sure you understand the whole process so you can easily recreate the recipes in your own kitchen.

- Really nice workshop!! We enjoyed it very much and we had a very good teacher. We loved the food!!
- My husband and I had a great time. It was just the 2 of us, Filamena and her delightful daughter. We learned several pasta shapes, 2 sauces, bruschetta, and the most delicious tiramisu. She grows her own herbs, olive oil,the wheat was recently harvested and everything was fresh. She also provided a sampling of fresh local made cheese, meat and red table wine. She told us about the area with love. It was really good. Meeting them and sharing a meal on her terrace was a highlight
- Filomena was an amazing cooking instructor. I felt right at home with her and her family in the kitchen! She showed me so many different techniques for the pasta shapes. Would highly recommend!
- We had a wonderful time with Filomena Cotugno at her cooking class at her lovely home. She was a patient & fun teacher. We made tiramisu & pasta for two dishes. Her daughter was there to help with any language issues & was very sweet. She also provided appetizers & drinks! All of the food we made was excellent & we enjoyed it immensely. Her husband joined us for the meal so it could be a family affair. She shared with us some of her homemade olive oil & limoncello! She even took the time to show us around her beautiful hometown & helped with transportation getting to her house. We would highly recommend Filomena & the Cesarine cooking classes!!
- Big thank you to Filomena and her daughter for a fantastic evening. The cookery class was amazing and we got to learn new skills and tasted foods we had not tried before. We made two types of pasta, tiramisu and bruschetta. Then had the pleasure of eating these with Filomena and her daughter (who was a very good translator- thank you so much!) I would recommend this experience to anyone regardless of any culinary knowledge as Filomena was very generous with her time and talent to help us create wonderful vegetarian food. I’m looking forward to creating these dishes when I get home. This evening has been a highlight of our holiday. Thank you x

Cesarina from 2025Location: Montescaglioso (MT) Languages: Italian, English, SpanishIn my kitchen, I use only top-quality ingredients, carefully chosen from local producers, and prepared with attention, using the "star" ingredient—our extra virgin olive oil, produced with passion and dedication. I don’t have a single dish that represents me because every day of the year brings a different specialty, created based on the seasonal availability of ingredients and what’s fresh at the moment. The one ingredient that never misses is love—the love I put into preparing and serving each dish, to offer an authentic and unforgettable experience.
