I felt their could have been a bit more explanation . I also booked for an English class and the host spoke to another couple in French regularly without translating into English. The class could have been much better with a bit more information and structure

This was a great class where we learned how to make orecchiette and another noodle from the same dough. It was held outside in a courtyard next to a museum (which belongs to the same family and is very interesting). We were taught to make to dough - not a whole lot of detailed instruction, but that's understandable as these ladies have done it for years by feel (there are also only two ingredients) but you do get to participate and see the masters at work. After, the pasta was cooked up for us and turned out delicious! We had dinner as a group and it was a very nice experience overall. The only thing I wish is that we'd worn bug spray as there were some mosquito bites afterwards, but that really has nothing to do with the class.We had a great time at the pasta making course!

We had a great time at the pasta making course! The setting was picture perfect and was a great introduction into the culture and food of Puglia. Our only piece of constructive criticism would be to get rid of single use plastic plates, cups and cutlery. It would be a better experience (and better for the environment) if proper crockery and cutlery was used.Esperienza unica immersa nella tradizione più genuina.

Esperienza unica immersa nella tradizione più genuina. E' stato un regalo per il nostro anniversario e devo dire che conoscere la famiglia Faggiano, nel luogo incantato della loro corte, è stata la scelta migliore!! Ha avuto i suoi frutti anche una volta rientrati a casa :) sarà stata la pasta afrodisiaca?! Non so, in ogni caso complimenti per l'idea, unica nel suo genere e assolutamente originale rispetto a qualsiasi altra attività "acchiappa turisti". Un abbraccio alla signora Annamaria, al figlio Davide e al il sig. Luciano Faggiano, grande conoscitore della storia antica leccese.
