About Lecce
Lecce rewards eaters: a baroque old town where the aperitivo hour stretches long and the kitchen still runs on durum wheat, olive oil and Salento wine. You can roll orecchiette beside a local cook in a family home on the city's edge — see the Authentic Apulia Cooking Class in a Local Family Home Near Lecce — or eat your way through the centre's lanes on the Lecce History and Street Food Tasting Small Group Tour, pairing monuments with bites of rustico and pasticciotto.

Frequently asked questions
Lecce sits in Apulia, so the cooking here leans on durum wheat pasta, extra virgin olive oil, vegetables and Salento wines rather than the tomato-heavy menus of further north. Many experiences happen in family homes or historic courtyards, and hosts teach shapes like orecchiette and sagne by hand.
