- Paola and her daughter are super nice. We had a great experience beginning with collecting the ingredientes from their vegetable garden. Paola is very patient and she’s a great teacher. She taught us how to make the best tiramisu I have ever had and two delicious pastas. We really loved this experience!!!
- We had an absolutely wonderful time. It was an unmatched experience that provided an authentic glimpse of Italian culture. The family was not only accommodating but incredibly nice and welcoming. We learned, enjoyed delicious food, and will never forget this opportunity. We are grateful that they offered up their home and cannot recommend this class enough. Take it. More than once.
- Paola and Rosanna warmly welcomed us in their beautiful home and gave us an exciting introduction into the secrets of pasta making. The morning / lunch we spend together was amazing and the finally produced pasta and tiramisu absolutely delicious. 10/10 recommended!!

Paola Maria
Cesarina from 2025Location: Alberobello Languages: Italian and EnglishFor me, cooking is about sharing. I learned this from my grandmothers, who passed down the ancient family recipes to me, pieces of history captured in flavors and aromas. "Sharing" was the word my mother always said when she brought food to the table for me and my siblings: simple dishes made with vegetables from our garden and a pinch of love. Even today, cooking is my language. Sharing my passion with family and friends, in exchange for smiles, is what makes me happy. The dishes I prepare most often are: panzerotti, traditional pasta dishes, focaccia, and desserts made with jams from the fruits of my trees. This is what I want to share with those who enter my home: the Puglian essence to enjoy together.
