    We had an amazing cooking class with Pierangela. The whole family were so accommodating and it really felt like we'd just come over for an authentic Italian family dinner. She is a great teacher and made the whole experience so enjoyable. We made two amazing pastas and a tiramisu. They were especially general with some lovely aperitifs she made earlier as well as a glass of prosecco and some wine her father in law makes. A perfect evening - would highly recommend!

    A Truly Homely and Unforgettable Experience! This cooking class in Lecce was an absolute highlight of our trip to Italy! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed like family into a warm, inviting home. The entire experience felt authentic and relaxed — not just a class, but a genuine slice of Italian life.

    Highly recommend Pierangela and her cooking class! We had a wonderful evening cooking two types of pasta and a tiramisu. Pierangela and her family warmly welcomed us into their home for the class and provided us with some of their family wine and delicious antipasti. We will definitely be using the recipes from our class to cook back home. A wonderful experience with lovely hosts!

    Pierangela and her family were lovely hosts! They made us feel right at home and were all incredibly friendly. We made a beautiful tirimasu, and two types of pasta. Pierangela was patient when teaching us how to make pasta and let us take plenty of photos of the process. She then made us a two pasta sauces to match with the added surprise of some antipasti. I Highly recommend taking this cooking class for an authentic home cooked Italian meal. We will definitely be making these pastas at home!

    Hello, 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.
