- Our cooking class in Italy was truly one of the highlights of our trip! The mother-and-daughter team was absolutely wonderful—warm, welcoming, passionate, and so much fun. They made us feel like we were cooking in the home of dear friends rather than taking a class. Everything was authentic, hands-on, and filled with love, laughter, and delicious food. You could feel the pride they take in sharing their family traditions and Italian culture with their guests. It wasn’t just a cooking class; it was a beautiful cultural experience and a memory we will cherish long after returning home. If you’re visiting Italy, I cannot recommend this experience highly enough. Don’t miss the opportunity to spend time with these two lovely women and experience a genuine taste of Italian hospitality. An unforgettable experience with two truly special people! 🇮🇹❤️
- We had a wonderful evening cooking with Paola. We enjoyed learning about and preparing Puglian dishes. Most of all it was so nice to be welcomed into her home and at the end enjoying a meal with her and her daughter Rosanna!
- This was a fantastic experience and we would highly recommend it to everyone!! Thank you for welcoming us into your home and showing us your hospitality!!
- This event has been a memorable one. Paola and her family warmly welcomed my family into their home to enjoy one of the best home cooked meals we ever had. We ate, drank and laughed for hours. It was more than an event, it was a cultural and gastronomic extravaganza. As a travel advisor and a guest travelling with my family, I could not have picked a better excursion. Thank you Paola for the amazing meal you made us, while watching and leaning. Truly unforgettable ❤️
- We had such a wonderful experience thanks to Rosanna and Paola! From the moment we arrived, they made us feel so welcome in their beautiful masseria. We spent such a wholesome and memorable time together, and it truly felt like more than just a cooking class. This was our very first cooking class, and it’s an experience we’ll never forget. We made two different types of pasta and a delicious tiramisu, and Paola was an amazing teacher. So patient, kind, and passionate about sharing her knowledge with us. Rosanna was just as lovely and gave us such wonderful recommendations that made our experience even more special. Thank you both so much for welcoming us and making us feel at home. We couldn’t have asked for better hosts! ❤️

Paola Maria
Cesarina from 2025Location: Alberobello (BA) Languages: Italian and EnglishFor me, cooking is about sharing. I learned this from my grandmothers, who passed down the ancient family recipes to me, pieces of history captured in flavors and aromas. "Sharing" was the word my mother always said when she brought food to the table for me and my siblings: simple dishes made with vegetables from our garden and a pinch of love. Even today, cooking is my language. Sharing my passion with family and friends, in exchange for smiles, is what makes me happy. The dishes I prepare most often are: panzerotti, traditional pasta dishes, focaccia, and desserts made with jams from the fruits of my trees. This is what I want to share with those who enter my home: the Puglian essence to enjoy together.
