Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Country panzarottini
  • Chitarrina with seasonal vegetable ragout
  • Cream cannoli (a crispy baked shell filled with sweet cream)

On the terrace of my house, amidst the greenery of nature and the sea stretching to the horizon during the summer, or around the old family table by the warmth of the fireplace during the winter, I love to receive my guests. Through recipes handed down from generation to generation, I tell them the fascinating story of my family. Panzarottini, delicious fried stuffed "pasta matta", prepared with care, the use of the old family guitar to make pasta, to be seasoned with local zero-mile products, and the discovery of cannoli, a traditional dessert of our region, will be the protagonists of my guests' culinary journey in my home. In addition, there will be no shortage of artisanal liqueurs and tastings of local products.

Luisa provided us with a beautiful evening. We enjoyed our view of the Adriatic Sea, visiting, making pastas and desserts from scratch I learned many Italian cooking tips, skills, and words! Luisa is a pleasant lady that takes pride in her cooking and her home. We felt welcome and grateful to have had this true local Ambruzzo experience.

Luisa was a great host and wonderful cook. We made a sweet ravioli and homemade pasta learning to use the Chitarra. We also made a version of tiramisu using strawberries and lemoncello instead of coffee. The flavors were delicious. Luisa was a wonderful host and my friend and I had a lovely time. Now we can’t wait to get home and practice the pasta making techniques we learned. Thanks Luisa!!

Luisa was a gracious host and teacher. We loved the personal experience and traditions she shared with us. Mikaela, was a delight- she helped to translate for us. We enjoyed our food together with them, and Luisa’s husband. Great conversation. We made new friends!! Highly recommend this experience.

My husband, Thomas, and I enjoyed a wonderful evening in Luisa's home. We were warmly welcomed and enjoyed learning about the rich tradition of food in Abruzzo. Each dish was delicious! It was a very special night for us.
