Gather at the table where Italy reveals itself
Discover a week of cooking, connection, and slow travel in the heart of Italy.
Tavolissima
Tavolissima isn’t just a cooking school, it’s an invitation to slow down, gather, and taste the true rhythm of Puglia. Nestled among olive groves and sun-drenched stone walls, Tavolissima celebrates the art of slow food, the joy of shared tables, and the soulful beauty of traditional Puglian recipes passed down through generations.
Here, food tells a story, one of mothers and aunties stirring sauces at twilight, Nino’s childhood memories of families gathered together for lunches that lasted all afternoon, and a way of life that honours the land and the people who nurture it. Every ingredient comes from nearby farms, gardens, and seas, low food miles, high authenticity, prepared the way it has always been: with patience, purpose, and love.
Guests don’t just cook at Tavolissima; they connect. They roll pasta by hand, laugh over a shared glass of wine, and sit at long tables beneath fairy lights where strangers become friends. It’s an immersive experience, part cooking class, part cultural journey, and wholly unforgettable.
Tavolissima is where the flavours of Puglia meet the warmth of its people, a celebration of love, laughter, happiness, and joy served one plate at a time.
