3.Cooking Class in a Secret Courtyard – Culurgiones (Sardinian Pasta)

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 55 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $72Best value

Meet Federica and her family at La Corte del Carrubo in Lanusei for a four-hour evening of Sardinian cooking. Tour the traditional house, knead dough, shape culurgiones, enjoy an aperitif, and sit down to dinner with local cheeses and cold cuts. English is offered, though language support may vary.

“No one spoke English , even though it was advertised and we specifically requested it. The service was really poor, we had to ask 5-7 times to get at least a glass of water while working in the 26 degrees. We felt like we were workers and not participants in a fun event. We were forced to create the small pasta pieces from 2 kg of dough which took 2 hours, so everyone was super hungry already. Even during the dinner we got only water, coke and a jar of house red wine. The dinner was nothing special.”
