Outstanding Italian cookery class

Outstanding!!! Lidia & family was amazing and very friendly. Lidia is an outstanding cook. Food was delicious. Learned to make Tiramisu, Parmagarna, pici pasta, polpettini (small meatballs) and small pizza dough balls. I was treated like royalty! Learned a lot. Lunch outstanding with rose wine & limoncelli. Private class. Highly recommended.

Gewoon lokaal koken bij locals thuis

Wat was dit geweldig bij italianse Lidia Vergani in Otranto, zoon en schoondochter. Hartelijk ontvangst en uitleg wat we zouden maken, heerlijke tiramisu, verse pasta en aubergine pannekoekjes. Buiten met engels sprekende zoon alles gegeten en er werd nog meer lokaal aan eten geserveerd. Ooh wat was dit leuk en lekker. Een food experience welke wij niet snel vergeten.
