Lots of fun to enjoy a great time with friends - Ylenia and Rita were excellent. We had tons of fun making the pasta and tasting the wine. Then we ate the pasta and had other wines.

Nice experience to have in Lecce - The experience itself was great. Wine was lovely and nibbles too. The only negative thing would be too many people in our class which made it hard to hear or see instructor. I think there were 28 (probably due to the bad weather) otherwise a lovely experience in Lecce.

Cozy and educational workshop - Cozy and clear workshop. Learned new technique and drank good wines. Were allowed to take nice pictures during the workshop. The quality of the pasta that could be eaten was not super good.

Disappointing and not good value for money - Far too many people in the class (28) which made it difficult to hear and feel involved. The actual pasta making only took around 20 mins. The rest of the time was spent sitting around drinking wine. It seemed overpriced for 3 glasses of wine, a bowl of pasta with tomato sauce and 2 small canapés. We were disappointed overall.
