Italian Cookery & Supper Evening – "Taste of Sardinia"

Join us for an exclusive Italian Cookery & Dining Experience hosted by Adele Ursitti of MammaLina Cookery School, with special guest Carmela Sereno Hayes from Carmela’s Kitchen — proudly sponsored by Filippo Berio.

Spend a relaxed evening immersed in hands-on cooking, storytelling, and a beautiful shared supper inspired by the coastal flavours of Sardinia. More than a supper club, this is a cookery and dining experience designed to help you unwind, meet like-minded people, learn authentic Italian skills, and enjoy delicious seasonal food.

Hands-on Fregola & Seafood Workshop

Learn how to make Fregola from scratch — Sardinia’s iconic toasted pasta, often described as Italian giant couscous. Carmela will guide you through traditional rolling and shaping techniques, sharing plenty of tips and Italian flair along the way.

Adele will also demonstrate how to clean and cook fresh mussels, alongside the preparation of a classic Sardinian seafood dish.

After the workshop, we’ll gather around the table to enjoy a relaxed seasonal Italian feast in the beautiful surroundings of MammaLina Cookery School.

Price: £75 per person. LIMITED AVAILABILITY.
