Shared Experience
Your experience
Gnocchi is a traditional Italian dish, originally from the north but also loved in the south. There are many variations, such as gnocchi alla sorrentina, with butter and sage, or simple gnocchi with a locally sourced tomato sauce. Easy to prepare but incredibly tasty, gnocchi can be customized with different sauces. At the end of our cooking class, you will taste the dish you have prepared, concluding the experience with a traditional dessert made by you. A unique opportunity to make your stay in Salento even more special! I look forward to seeing you!

- We had a superb food and wine tour with Lucia. She was very responsive with her communication, her English was very good, she was on time and extremely informative. She explained everything at the market and at all the stops along the way. We had a truly fantastic visit and meal at the country house hosted by Lucia and the lovely homeowners. Thank you for a great day.

- We had a wonderful time cooking with Lucia. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Lecce!
- Lucia was wonderful and I truly enjoyed her cooking class making pasta and learning all about the different foods in Puglia. She took me to the farmers market to buy some vegetables, to the bakery to get some focaccia and other treats. It was a lovely private class in her home and her boyfriend Paola joined in to cook too. The pasta dish with fresh tomatoes and cheese were delicious along with the Caffe Leccese, Rustico, Taralli, Focaccia and much more. Paolo even entertained me with his Tamborine while Lucia sang a local folk song. What a wonderful experience to witness all this local authentic Puglia memories. Thank you Lucia and Paolo for a wonderful cooking class of making pasta and dining lunch with you. I miss you both; you were so welcoming, entertaining and great "chefs." Thank you so much for also introducing me to your beautiful Mother and Grandparents. I will forever cherish this experience with you both.

Cesarina from 2024Location: Lecce (LE) Languages: Italian and English"You always cook thinking of someone, otherwise you're just preparing food" What I love most is passing down the traditions of my region through culinary art, that is, everything that has been passed down to me by my grandmothers since I was a child. A journey that goes from homemade pasta, to traditional pittule, to the typical sweets of my land.
