Shared Experience
Your experience
A tour of the local market is an experience you simply can’t miss. Immerse yourself in the vibrant colors and enticing aromas that tell stories of tradition and authenticity at every corner. Together, we will handpick the freshest and most typical products of our land, ready to be transformed into delicious dishes once we return home. In the kitchen, we’ll get straight to work, preparing a rich and traditional appetizer from our region, followed by a homemade pasta dish crafted with time-honored techniques. And to end on a sweet note, we’ll make the famous torta pasticciotto, an irresistible dessert that embodies the essence of our gastronomic culture. Your Cesarina, Pierangela, can't wait to guide you on this unique culinary journey!

- It was an incredibly warm and great experience! They are very open and accommodating. Highly recommended!!
- Pierangela is the most wonderful host and teacher, and provided for a spectacular experience!
- Pierangela wa amazing! We came as a couple and learned how to make pasta and tiramisu from scratch while her lovely dog Maia chilled in the corner. Would recommend!
- We had a lovely tour of the market and then went to the house and learned how to make a traditional dessert of Lecce, orecchiette pasta and had a delicious lunch. Pierangela was very informative and helped teach us the techniques. Can’t wait to get home and try the recipes out. Well worth the money and time.
- Fantastic experience! Pierangela is very kind and made the experience fun! She answered all our many questions and was easy to talk to. The food we made, plus the aperitif she provided, was SO delicious!! We are excited to go home and try out the recipes we learned!

Pierangela
Cesarina from 2024Location: Lecce (LE) Languages: English and ItalianHello, my name is Pierangela, and cooking for others is one of the things that brings me the most joy. Since I was a child, I've wanted to experiment with the traditional recipes of my hometown. I was born in Gravina in Puglia, a town on the border between Puglia and Basilicata, boasting an incredibly rich culinary tradition. It's precisely this richness that drives me to cook: so many recipes, so many flavors, unique and unmistakable, exclusively ours. Panzerotti, focaccia barese, Pan cotto alla gravinese, U' ruccl (typical San Giuseppe focaccia), sweet ricotta calzones with pork ragu, orecchiette al tegamino, cavatelli, baked finocchietti, cartellate, and much more—these are the typical flavors of my homeland. For the past 12 years, I have been living in Lecce, in the wonderful and spectacular Salento, and from the beginning, I started to savor and create dishes typical of the Salento tradition, including the famous Pezzetti di cavallo, Ciceri e tria, Pittule, Pizzo, Frise, and the unmissable pasticciotto.
