- We had a wonderful experience learning to cook an authentic Italian meal of focaccia, pasta, and pasticciotto! The learning was great and the food tasted delicious. More importantly we had a delightful evening learning about the lives of a wonderful family in Copertino Italy. We strongly recommend the experience!
- Thank you, Francesca, and your two beautiful daughters, for making our cooking class such a truly special experience. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed into your home—it was warm, inviting, and full of joy. You made the lesson fun, enjoyable and we had lots of laughs. We had the best time learning, cooking, and just enjoying the whole experience together. You made everything so easy and enjoyable, and we’ll always remember this night. Thanks again for being so kind and making it such a fun and memorable evening!
- Went with my wife and in-laws and had an amazing time learning to make orecchiette and tiramisu. The food was amazing and the entire family was very personable and welcoming. Would recommend:)
- Francesca and her daughters hosted my wife and me for a wonderful 4-5 hour market visit and cooking session. They welcomed us in their beautiful home and it was lovely learning more about the local Italian culture while making delicious orecchiete, focaccia and pasticciotto. Thank you for the wonderful experience!
- We had a delightful day at Francesca’s house making orecchiette and ravioli. Francesca and her daughters are lovely, and they helped our 6yo and 3yo learn to make pasta by hand and with the pasta machine. A great experience for everyone!

Francesca
Cesarina from 2020Location: Lecce Languages: Italian, English, French, Spanish"For me, being in front of the stove is really a pleasure, which I often share with our friends. Pleasure in preparing something genuine that often takes us back to the kitchens of our grandmothers, crowded with relatives, especially during the holidays. Our territory is rich in poor but exceptional products, which I like to serve in the simplest way possible, precisely to enhance them. "
