- An informative and delicious lesson in Puglian cuisine. Juanita was patient and knowledgeable. We were treated to a delicious aperitivo which was carefully and lovingly prepared for us by Juanita. Her attention to detail is remarkable and we could see the pride in everything that she does. Even a seasoned cook will learn a few ideas! A must do when in Bari!
- Juanita was a wonderful host. She has a real passion for sharing her incredible culinary skills. Together we made tagliatelle, oricchiette and tiramisu. She takes tremendous responsibility in practising safe food handling to protect her guests. In addition to these foods that we prepared she served us a lovely antipasto platter with fresh meats and cheeses as well as her homemade bread and two delicious appetizers. Would highly recommend this cooking class.
- It was absolutely amazing!! Juanita is very passionate about cooking and the art of pasta making. She explains every step along the way and tells you all the tricks and secrets to a great pasta/tiramisu. She also prepared delicious entries for us and we had prosseco and wine with our food. I would definitely recommend this to everyone who wants a true italian cooking experience.
- “De kookles pasta en tiramisu was een superleuke ervaring om met ons gezin te doen! De gastvrouw was erg vriendelijk en legde alles duidelijk en geduldig uit. Het maken van de gerechten was leerzaam en gezellig. De locatie was van buitenaf iets lastiger te vinden, maar eenmaal binnen was het helemaal top.”
- An absolute highlight of our trip! Taking Juanita’s cooking class was such a lovely experience — everyone in the group had a great time, and we laughed so much throughout. Juanita is an amazing host: friendly, funny, a little sassy (in the best way!), and she made everyone feel right at home. Her instructions were super clear and detailed, so even if you're not a confident cook, you’ll feel guided every step of the way. The food we made was incredible — a solid 10/10 — and we even got the printed recipes to take home. Highly recommend this class if you're in Bari and want to mix good food with good vibes!
