For the last 17 years, The Awaiting Table Cookery school has been the most praised cooking school and wine programme in all Puglia. (And now the oldest too). Located in the historical centre of Lecce, Italy--or during selected weeks throughout the year, in a castle an hour south of Lecce-- students from 59 countries have chosen us as the best way to go deeper into The Mediterranean Diet, and local, world-class wines. Our school has appeared in The London Times, Food & Travel, The LA Times, Bon Appetit, The New York Times, Food and Wine, as well as Chinese, Japanese, British, American and Dutch television. The owner, Silvestro Silvestori, is a nationally-certified sommelier here in Italy, as well as a wine journalist for a major international wine magazine. All classes are hands-on, fun and actively spent in two of the most beautiful kitchens in all of Italy.
We spent the week at the Awaiting Table with Silvestro in February 2020. Silvestro, the owner & operator of the school, is extremely knowledgeable in southern Italian cuisine, Italian history, the culture, and wines as he is also a sommelier. We met in the mornings at 10AM, visited the markets, returned to the school to prepare lunch. We finished up around 2, took the afternoon off and met again at 6 to shop and prepare dinner. It is a very full day and the break in the afternoon was needed to walk off lunch or take a nap, your choice. We learned how to make pasta, how to prepare fresh, healthy & delicious meals using very simple ingredients, and how to properly use raw olive oil for health benefits. On the other side, we learned how to make homemade sausages and how to stuff a meatloaf :):):) Overall, it was a very educational, tasty & fun weekend and we hope to return when the opportunity arises.

Lecce is a true center piece of Baroque architecture. The Basilica a excellent example of this style. You really need to stand and study the building with your eyes as you would a piece of art.
