    Paola was amazing! You could not ask for anything more. She was friendly, outgoing, and a great culinary educator. Her warm demeanor and sincere attitude was a delight. She even changed the menu for us when she was informed we were excited to make the famous Bologna ragu. Thank you for everything! We hope to be back soon!

    I had the most amazing few hours with Paola, her wisdom and her charm and her passion for food were infectious. She is a wonderful guide, a great cook and a fabulous host. This cooking class was as authentic as I'd hoped for - the food we created are simple but effective recipes which I fully intend to do when I'm back in my own kitchen. Strongly recommended if you're wanting to do something different. Thank you Paola! I hope we meet again...

    We met Paola by the Fontana del Nettuno (Neptune Fountain) in downtown Bologna and asked her to show us the city market more frequented by locals (versus the more touristy one) and so she did. We went and bought a few ingredients together and she explained everything around the market. We then all chatted on our way to her beautiful home, where she led us through preparing a three-course meal of Piadina, Tortelloni, and Tiramisu. We ate the food we made at her table and she truly made us feel at home. It was honestly an amazing value because we can now go home and make this on our own. It’s not out of our reach, and that was her intention. She is kind, super intelligent, fun, and a great teacher. A Bolognese local! Ask for Paola and I hope you get her as a guide.
