Shared Experience
Your experience
I look forward to welcoming you into my home to teach you how to prepare some typical dishes from Bari! We will start with two appetizers: one focaccia with cherry tomatoes and oregano, and another with onions. For the main course, I will guide you through making orecchiette with turnip tops, a true classic of Bari’s tradition. To end on a sweet note, we’ll prepare sporcamuss, a delicious traditional dessert from Bari, and I’ll also share its history. It will be a unique experience in a relaxed and fun atmosphere, alongside me and my family. If you prefer, I can happily prepare vegetarian and vegan alternatives.

- We had a great time cooking, and eating with Sara and her family. We had the opportunity to learn more about and try some traditional Barese dishes that we didn't find at restaurants.
- Cooking with Sara in her home was a fantastic experience. She shared her knowledge of Italian cooking and the secrets and techniques for success. She was well organized, the sauces for the pastas we made were done in advance. We totally expect we’ll be able to recreate what we prepared with her when we return home. Her cooking was done with love and we were able to share the time with her daughter who assisted her and were joined for lunch by her daughter’s lovely husband and their son. Truly a highlight of our time in Puglia.
- It was an amazing experience that surpassed our expectations. Sara and her family went above and beyond to make our pasta class a memorable occasion. Their hospitality was inviting and made us feel like we were part of their family. The food menu was delicious and we actually learned a lot. Unforgettable experience that I would recommend. A true Barese experience.
- We really enjoyed our dinner experience with Sara and her family. She was extremely well prepared and very experienced in the kitchen. Her daughter and son-in-law joined us too. We appreciated getting to experience “real life” in Italy in a normal person’s home. This is probably the highlight of our trip to Italy and we recommend it to anyone who wants a glimpse into regular Italian life and wants to spend time with wonderful people. They even sent us home with our leftovers and lots of pictures of the evening.
- Sara and her family is super friendly. Her homemade food is excellent! The Italian fish pie is definitely very new to me and it's delicious. I also love our conversations during dinner. Highly recommend!
