Overview

If you want to immerse yourself in authentic Lecce and Salento cuisine, come to my home where I'll be waiting to teach you the art of homemade pasta with simple ingredients.
Together, we'll cook a Salento menu full of delicious aromas.
We'll make pasticciotto, Lecce's most famous dessert, and then we'll make Lecce coffee, the kind that has captivated tourists from around the world. I'll use only the highest-quality ingredients, always favoring local, farmer-produced products and using organic products! Come cook and eat with me, a menu also suitable for vegetarians.
We'll make pasta with our hands and a rolling pin, and we'll make orecchiette and maccheroncino just like my grandmother used to make.
