Ostuni : family cooking class in our country house

This was a really relaxing and fun time learning to cook some traditional Italian cuisine. They even coped brilliantly with both mine and my daughter's allergies. The ladies teaching us were fun, bubbly and informative. Eating our food afterwards was fun and there were lots of conversations involving the entire group. Thanks for a great time.

We had such a fantastic time at this family cooking class in the Ostuni countryside. From the moment we arrived, the welcome was warm, relaxed and genuinely personal. It was a real pleasure to learn about local ingredients and traditional Puglian cooking in such a beautiful, homely setting. The class was engaging, hands-on and great fun, with clear guidance, plenty of laughs and a lovely sense of sharing food and culture rather than simply attending a demonstration. Everything we prepared was delicious, and sitting down to enjoy the meal afterwards was the perfect ending. This was one of the highlights of our time in Puglia, authentic, welcoming and memorable. I would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone visiting Ostuni who wants to experience the food, warmth and hospitality of the region. A truly special experience and absolutely deserving of five stars!

Agnese and Angela were amazing and we immediately felt welcome in their home. They were wonderful instructors and great company for our cooking class and lunch! The meal we made was delicious. Highly recommend adding this to your itinerary if you’re in the Ostuni area!

Super interesting learning how to make orecchiette w the hosts! Mom and daughter were lovely and accommodating to our dietary needs which includes being vegan. We were a family of 4 and the only ones there so it felt like a private class. The food turned out wonderful and I would recommend this experience!

An absolutely fantastic and authentic Puglian experience! This was genuinely one of the highlights of my trip to Puglia. From the moment I arrived, Agnese made me feel incredibly welcome and the whole experience felt personal, relaxed and authentic rather than like a typical tourist cooking class. We started in her beautiful garden, picking fresh tomatoes, peppers and herbs that we would actually use in the dishes we were making. I absolutely loved that part. We then spent the next few hours cooking together, learning about local ingredients, traditional Puglian food and techniques, before sitting down to enjoy everything we had made with wine. The food was fantastic and I came away having actually learned things that I’ll use when I cook at home. Agnese is a wonderful host. Warm, funny, knowledgeable and incredibly generous with her time. She even went above and beyond by picking me up and dropping me back afterwards, which I really appreciated as I was travelling around Puglia without a car. She also gave me lots of recommendations for things to see, places to eat and local products to try during the rest of my stay. I was travelling alone and this was such a lovely way to spend a few hours and experience a completely different side of Puglia. By the end it felt much more like spending an afternoon cooking with a local friend than attending a class. If you’re visiting the area, book it. I couldn’t recommend Agnese and this experience highly enough. An easy 5 stars from me. Grazie mille, Agnese! 🇮🇹❤️

What a beautiful evening spent with Angela & Agnese. This mother/daughter duo are a delight. Friendly and welcoming from the outset, you're invited into their beautiful home as you pick fresh ingredients from their garden and are shown the basics of authentic Apulian cooking. As you make fresh pasta among other things, Angela & Agnese make you feel right at home as if it were your own kitchen. Sitting down to eat all together afterwards with some wine and the lovely addition of Agnese's dad, this was a night to remember. Highly recommend if you're in Ostuni.

Very nice experience. It’s a real Italian family setting in which you pick vegetables from the garden, prepare and eat them. You’ll feel welcome and well cared for. Great for the whole family.

Spending time with Agnese and her warm and welcoming parents in their home was the highlight of my trip to Ostuni. From picking vegetables from their garden to learning how to make fresh pasta, it was a uniquely authentic experience I’ll cherish forever. Sitting around the table eating the 4-course meal we prepared (with a glass of rosé), talking, laughing and bonding. It was an emotional experience for me and I left feeling like I have a new Italian family. 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 Grazie mille, Agnese, Angela and Mimmo. 💙💙💙🇮🇹

Exceptional experience, not only did we have a wonderful time with Agnes and her warm parents.. we got to experience a real authentic Italian dinner experience!! One of the best experiences we had in Italy.. authentic and real conversations while cooking and eating. Thank you so much!

We absolutely loved our experience from the moment we were warmly greeted at the gate by Angela and Agnese. They invited us into their home and took such care with us and our three children. The cooking and preparing process and set up was both gorgeous and practical. The class was just the five of us and another couple, small enough for assistance and personal attention with enough of us to create a fun atmosphere. Our kids 14, 12 and 7 were all loving it and the family all loved them too. Sitting around the family table with Mama, Papa and Agnese was a delight and a huge highlight of our trip to Ostuni. Highly highly recommended.
