Shared Experience
Your experience
- Traditional mix appetizers
- Sagne ‘ncannulate (twisted pasta) or Ciceri e tria (Puglian chickpeas with pasta)
- Tiramisu
We will delight in typical dishes of my town, such as Sagne Ncannulate (fresh handmade pasta, characteristic of the area) or ciceri e tria (cooked as my grandmother used to do in the fireplace). All will be accompanied by excellent local wine and preceded by an appetizer composed of typical local products. To conclude, we will be won over by a delicious tiramisu. Each ingredient is the fruit of my passion for the land, cultivated together with my family. My kitchen represents the space that fills me most with joy, and I will be happy to share it with you in an atmosphere that smells like family.

- Katia & her whole family were extremely, warm, generous,& welcoming. We made the local typically bread which was delicious. Unexpectedly, she served us a complete lunch; meatballs, grilled zucchini, several kinds of peppers , meat, & fish. Her tiramisu was delicious! It is a very short cab ride or drive from Lecce, only about 10-15 minutes. Absolutely lovely & memorable experience.
- Katia and her family were very kind and friendly! You feel like home! The food grown in their garden was delicious! The Tiramisu was fabulous! What a wonderful evening! Katia was so kind to pick me from and take me back to my apartment! Thank you wonderful people for the great experience!
- 5 stars for Katia, a perfect hostess who, with instinctive naturalness, makes her guests feel at ease. She skillfully shared her wealth of family, tradition, and kindness. I will definitely return!!
- I had an amazing time at Katia's home. She warmly welcomed me and one other student and we learned two types of traditional pasta and tiramisu. (I had never made either before.) In addition, she served us an incredible dinner with wine, wonderful cheeses, homemade bread, meatballs and vegetable dishes sourced from her garden. I felt right at home with her family. If you are staying near Lecce you must do this.
- Katia and her family were amazing. They offered us a good coffee and then, we have begun the preparation of the pastas. It was really fun (and not easy) but Katia helped us a lot with her very good explanations :) Then, Prossecco time and we ate together with her husband and her son. It was the birthday of my husband on that date and Katia managed to put a candle on her tiramisu and we sang Auguri a te. A very nice and kind experience 🥰
