Enza and Antonio really put together a fantastic evening. Everything was just perfect. Besides learning to make two different pastas, they had terrific wines, an amazing meat & cheese tray, and everything they cooked to add to the meal was exceptional. A lot of what we ate came directly from their property - even their own olive oil! At the end, they created a fun video for us that was an excellent souvenir from the evening.
Don’t miss this experience!

Absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived until the minute we left our experience was fabulous. Enza and Antonio warmly welcomed us into their home and then treated us to an amazing evening of hospitality, food and conversation. We learned how to make two types of pasta and then were soon eating them in amazing home made sauces ! This was an evening we will always remember fondly!

Our experience was well above expectations. One of our most beloved evenings of our entire puglia trip! Enza and Antonio were the most wonderful hosts, opening up their home to us like family. We ate apps, we drank wine and chatted continuously with them and the other 2 couples for hours! Then she showed us how to make her family recipe for both Orechiette and Maccheroni pasta. It was fun and simpler/easier than we expected. And best of all we got to eat our own creations with homemade pasta sauce made with the freshest of ingredients from their garden. It was a lovely evening to always be remembered and treasured. Highly recommend to anyone in the area. One little note is that they r located approx 20-30 mins south of Lecce.

There were 8 people on the course, it was very interesting and fun. The whole concept was thoughtfully put together and the mixture of drinks with a huge tray of olives, dried tomatoes etc., was an excellent start. The pasta making was fun and then sitting all together to enjoy the pasta and sauces Enza had made the whole experience one to remember.
