This was one of the highlights of my trip to Italy. I did the orecchiette cooking class with my mother and 5.5 year old daughter. We had such an amazing time, it's something I will cherish forever. The hosts were so lovely and knowledgeable, they were kind and patient with me and my 5 year old daughter. The length of the class was perfect - not too short, not too long. After you make the pasta by hand, you sit outside and wait to have your homemade pasta. The hosts offer apperitivo and hands on help, guidance and explanations during the class. The class was so fun and now we can try to make orecchiette at home. The value is fantastic for the experience. The food was delicious! Highly recommend - so special. Would love to visit again and do another class here.
We had such a great time!! Elena was lovely and so helpful and then we got to eat our orecchiette after. Highly recommend!!!
Wonderful class! Intimate experience with chef Ylina and Rita. She was very patient with us and the result was beautiful.
We enjoyed making the dough for the Orecchiette pasta and then shaping it. Unfortunately, the teacher explained very quickly, which made it feel like we were rushing through the course. We were very disappointed with the tomato sauce that the finished pasta was served with; it tasted like sauce from a package. The local wines were okay. All in all, we had hoped for more for the price...
Dear Larissa, This is a Pasta Workshop with a specific duration during which we teach you how to make a dough and how to shape it into pasta. Our tomato sauce is made fresh every day. The price you pay includes: a culinary workshop, a staff at your disposal, a location, 4 glasses of wine and the food.
It was very nice and the hosts were very friendly! We made pasta again when we returned to France :-)
Had a nice cooking workshop and everything was kindly explained with a piece of history! Friendly, hygienic and delicious food!
In the sewing workshop in English and Italian, the owner found us a guide who spoke French. Very good
Such a great afternoon learning to make orecchiette at Balu! The hosts were lovely and so knowledgeable, and we truly enjoyed our experience! The wine pairings were excellent and the lesson was fantastic. Thank you!
We had a fun afternoon and wine tasting learning how to make Orecchiette in Lecce. I am looking forward to trying it at home!
We were warmly welcomed and learned a lot about making "Orecchiette" pasta.
