A truly unforgettable Italian experience. Lydia an experienced former chef and has some great insights into Italian cooking. We made three different dishes, (pasta, fish and tiramisu), were given different wines to try and aperitif's. After cooking, we ate together in Lydia's lovely garden. As she was not a great english speaker, her son was there to translate. This is a truly authentic experience where you get to see how the local live and eat in Otranto. A highlight of my holiday. So much better than the cooking class I got at my hotel!

Great experience with Lidia as Cesarine in Otranto. We truly enjoyed this cooking class with Tiramisu, Orichietti, as well as other local specialties. We can not speak Italian, though were able to converse well (also thanks to Google Translate 😅😅😅) and had some good laughs toghter.

Was für ein Erlebnis! Wir sind sehr herzlich in der Familie aufgenommen worden und hatten ein hervorragendes vier Gänge Menü! Mama Lidia hat mit uns das Tiramisu und überbackene Muscheln, Dorade und Orecchiette Tomaten Sugo in ihrer Wohnung gemacht. Nach drei stunden kochen, haben wir herrlich im Garten gespeist. Eine absolut einzigartige Erfahrung in der Umgebung einer italienischen Mama zu kochen. Sehr empfehlenswert.
