“Had a wonderful day with Simona, her mother and friend learning to make Lokal classic pasta dishes. Was more than a cooking course learned about her Trullo and the ways and traditions of the region. Simona made a great atmosphere and integrated all the international guests. We ate the meal together with lots of laughter. I totally recommend it”
“This was a really great experience. Different from other cooking classes we’ve done as it was a larger group (approx. 13) but it worked well. Much of the time was spent making the Orecchiette pasta and practicing the technique, while Simona relayed the history of Puglia, regional pasta shapes and what sauces can and more importantly cannot be served together. The class location is at her farm, where she lives in a trullo house and she provided a great explanation of the significance and history of the traditional dwelling. Simona is a really down to earth, easy person and is a wealth of information.”
