Shared Experience
Your experience
An authentic taste of Puglia, served with a view.
Join us on a flower-filled terrace for a hands-on cooking class celebrating the rich flavors of traditional Apulian cuisine. Together, we’ll prepare and enjoy classic dishes like toasted bruschetta, fresh handmade pasta with seasonal vegetables, and end with a beloved family dessert — the irresistible sporcamuss, a warm puff pastry filled with custard. Throughout the evening, we’ll sip Primitivo wine from our family’s historic vineyard, sharing stories, recipes, and the joy of cooking the Puglian way.

- Annarita and her family were so welcoming. They were very friendly and explained everything extremely well. It was a really lovely experience and we learned so much and got to taste some real Italian homemade snacks and tiramisu that was so tasty. Would highly recommend Annarita as she is highly skilled and full of knowledge from all her experience.
- What an amazing experience with Titty and her family. As soon as we arrive they were so welcoming. Made us feel so right at home. Food was amazing! Best experience ever. Truly recommend if you ever visit Bari.
- The Market tour and Cooking Class with Annarita was a very special experience. She took us around the local market explaining the various things she looked for in the fresh products and ways she used them. We had a bonus of going to her mother’s house to cook (a former chef and “nonna”). the family makes their own olive oil, limoncello, etc. which we were treated to. We were taught how to highlight the ingredients and felt like we became part of their delightful family. She was also thoughtful enough to provide a lovely young translator to fill in any gaps so we fully understood everything. It is one of the wonderful experiences of visiting this beautiful part of Italy and shouldn’t be missed!
- Annarita, her 84 yr-old mother, and college-aged daughter (who served as translator) have created a cooking experience that not only far exceeded my wife’s and my expectations, but also warmed our hearts from the passion, enthusiasm, and dedication the three women all put into this rare opportunity. We left feeling like we just spent 3 hrs with extended family members that were so very happy to cook such an amazing Italian dinner for the seven of us that had booked this experience! We will never forget the time spent with them and enthusiastically recommend this experience to any and all!
- Excellent cooking class, so enjoyed learning from your 3 generations of cooks. One of the best classes and food was superior! Thank you!

Where
Annarita
Cesarina from 2025Location: Bari (BA) Languages: Italian and EnglishMy name is Annarita, and I’m a Cesarina from Bari—a city where cooking is a true daily ritual, made of simplicity, familiar aromas, and flavors that tell the story of who we are. I love preparing traditional dishes from Bari and the Puglia region—recipes that speak of family, sharing, and the rhythm of the seasons.I use simple, local ingredients, carefully selected, because for me, cooking is above all an expression of love for my land. Welcoming people to my table and making them feel at home is one of the things that brings me the most joy. Through my cooking, I want to offer an authentic experience, filled with genuine flavors and traditions passed down from generation to generation.
