We had such a fun night learning pasta making techniques and how to create light and perfectly sweet tiramisu from our warm and welcoming hostess Paola! She created an unforgettable experience for us and we would highly recommend adding a stop at her beautiful home to your Bologna itinerary!

We had a great time with the pasta and pizza workshop! Paola explained everything really well, and let us do as much as possible. We could eat our result in her nice garden, with a delicious wine. We would recommend it to everyone!

Paola was fantastic! Very welcoming and kind. We are so appreciative that she adjusted her schedule to fit us in at the last minute. She gave us so many insights and helpful tips for making incredible pasta. She was very patient in helping us learn and refine the techniques that we will be able to take home and use for trying to make it on our own. She said we passed but have to come back for a follow-up next time we are in Bologna and possibly learn some more recipes

Thank you Paola for a wonderful cooking class! We were a group of 9 people from 2 families, with those who cook a little to those who cook a lot, and Paola was very kind and encouraging and able to teach us all many things. The details are improrant, and she was able to give many tips to improve our pasta and tirimisu making. Many thanks Paola!

We took Paola's class to learn how to make pasta and ragu and we were so pleased with the entire experience. Paola welcomes you into her lovely home and she guides you through making a simple yet delicious ragu. While your ragu simmers on the stove, you make two different types of pasta - one with egg and one with only semolina. She teaches you how (and when) to handle the dough - rolling it out to the perfect thickness and cutting it into strips to make the specific shapes desired. When it's all over, you've made a wonderful pasta dinner that could be served with pride!!! Highly recommend her class.
