The best experience! We are a family of 4 (2 children ages 4 & 8), and we had been really looking for a more intimate, family focused cooking experience in a more traditional setting, that we could learn and get involved in together as a family. From the very moment we arrived, we were treated with such kindness and grace, and our host, Maria Elena was super knowledgeable while keeping it interesting and engaging for the kids. We made first course, second course and dessert with a snack and wine sprinkled in as well. Maria Elena is very passionate about Sardinian cooking and sharing the traditional methods. The cooking class is held in a traditional Sardinian kitchen and it is a beautiful, simple, culinary dream. Maria Elena was very conscious of any food preferences (vegetarian, etc.) This is really a cooking class for anyone, small groups, families, couples, etc., we will visit Sardinia again and will for sure reach out for another class! The class isn’t far from Cagliari, and the town of Pula is adorable and doesn’t have the super touristy feel (but we also went in May before the summer season). We are still daydreaming about our wonderful experience!
