What you can expect

  • Enjoy a true Apulian cuisine experience in Desenzano del Garda, designed for those seeking authenticity, tradition, and sincere human contact.
    The evening begins with the ritual of welcome, a symbolic gesture that represents the culture of the South: we add an extra place at the table, to remind us that in Puglia there is always room for those who arrive, for those who bring a new storey, for those who are travelling.

    After the ritual, you participate in a micro-cooking workshop where you learn traditional techniques: kneading, shaping, and preparing a typical Apulian dish (orecchiette, focaccia, or panzerotti, depending on the season).
    The cuisine is simple, Mediterranean, made with genuine ingredients and traditional techniques.

    The evening continues with a convivial dinner: you taste authentic dishes, listen to traditional stories, and experience a warm and welcoming family atmosphere.
    A perfect experience for couples, families, and small groups who want to discover Italian food culture in an intimate and original way.

    This is not a classic cooking class: it is a dinner experience that combines cooking, storytelling, and Apulian hospitality.
