Founded in 2003, The Awaiting Table Cookery School in Lecce, Italy has always been in constant evolution, creating new food and wine courses for our students. And while what we do always comes back to Southern Italian food and wine, some of our courses add other elements as well.
Visit a fish market with an expert, learn to cook all fish with only 4 techniques, learn to make fresh pasta from scratch, master 8 local dishes, taste three DOC wines and finally understand amari (taste 4).
This course is an investment that could potentially add years to your life. That the food and wine also happen to be delicious makes all of this ground-breaking.
The new premium all around the world is to make more of your own food. Having your larder filled with beautiful jars that reflect a precise moment of the summer makes our hearts sing more than money in the bank.
Fall in love with the most iconic wines from the Italian south. Then match them to 4 course dinner in a private home. 13 wines ( 3 whites, 3 pinks, 7 reds).
Urban, yet intimate and personal, our Lecce school gives you full immersion into the vibrant cultural and culinary capitol of one of the world’s great food and wine regions.
There is a way of eating that has been proven to keep you alive longer than any other. You’ll barely remember that though, as you’ll just fall so madly in love with the flavours.
Bicycle-based holidays tended to be about logistics- unpacking and repacking only to unpack again-, fumbling for the light switches in unfamiliar hotel rooms, trying to get your bearings, each day, every day, for a week.
