Your experience
Explore a culinary journey of authentic flavors and local traditions. Start with a crispy, focaccia panzerotto with grilled zucchini, arugula and Parmesan shavings. For winter, a delicious alternative with kale or cauliflower and tomato ragout.
The first course, orecchiette pasta with a rich meat sauce. And we will finish with typical Apulian desserts such as cartellate with wafer-thin pastry with honey or vin cotto or amaretti biscuits. The passion for cooking has deep roots, born when I was only seven years old, and is reflected today in the creation of authentic dishes. With love, I prepare and share with guests the culinary treasures of my land, offering quality, authenticity and sustainable cooking.

- Marie was lovely. Her love of cooking traditional meals was apparent. She shared her garden and it's produce with us.

- Maria was great . She made us feel home . We really enjoyed learning to make orecchiette , panzerotti, focaccia, amaretti . It was a great experience . We also enjoyed having lunch with her and her husband . We appreciated their hospitality . I will recommend Maria .
- We had a wonderful evening with the very hospitable Maria and her husband Nino. They showed us their extensive Trullo and garden. Maria is a fantastic chef, she cooked a perfect traditional multi-course meal from scratch and taught us how to make orecchiette and panzerotti. We drank the red Primitivo wine that Nino makes and finished with freshly baked amaretti, espresso and homemade limoncello. A highly recommended event.
- We had a lovely experience of authentic home cooking with a generous local host speaking the international language of food in her iconic family trullo.

Cesarina from 2018Location: Alberobello (BA) Languages: Italian and English"I wake up and see a dreamlike village, as if I were still asleep. The stone encampment in the undulating terrain." (Gabriele D'Annunzio) Scattered among almond and olive trees, trulli are picturesque buildings that are unique in the world. Maria lives in the historic part of the trulli and is one of the last families still living here. Amidst fairy-tale views and enchanted alleys, in our Cesarina's house, you can enjoy a truly unique experience. Maria discovered her passion for cooking when she was seven years old, and today she loves to prepare authentic, traditional dishes using produce from her husband's fields: quality, authenticity, and sustainability.
