We'll prepare dishes from the Italian tradition, but with a touch of color. The ravioli will be colored using vegetable and seasonal dyes, and they will be presented as if they were a canvas to paint on. We'll use brushes and spatulas to decorate our ravioli, transforming them into a work of art. The appetizers and desserts will follow, respecting the colors of the seasons.

It was such a wonderful evening. Cesarine was so wonderful, the food was amazing, and her cats are so sweet! This was the perfect thing to do while visiting Padua. I highly recommend this. We learned about the two different types of pastas we made and she treated us so well. And did I mention that her cats are the cutest??!! 15/10 recommend.

I made a reservation through Viator for a private dinner at a local home in Padua, or so I thought. It was much more. Our host Catia explained that it was a cooking demonstration and dinner. My wife and I love to cook and Catia loves to teach. We had such a wonderful evening discussing the preparation of the food we were to eat, the history of food, and the history of the local region. Catia explained in detail her delicious vegan creations, like egg-free mayonnaise. Appetizers were ricotta and caramelized pear, mozzarella “coach” between bread coated and lightly fried, meatless meatballs, tempura pumpkin with “the mayonnaise”, cashew spread with radicchio, and white polenta with soar sauce typical to the region. Our Primi was pumpkin gnocchi (which we helped cook) shaped like pumpkins with rosemary inserted into the top to look like pumpkins, so clever. The sauce was gorgonzola-based, so delicious. The Secondo was a filo dough base layered with a frittata and a fantastic topping. We finished our evening with a sublime tiramisu. As each course was presented so were the recipes and history of the cuisine. Catia was happy to share her techniques and even allowed us to take a photo of the tiramisu recipe. Her home is warm and inviting. Her artwork is wonderfully displayed throughout. Catia says “We arrive as clients and leave as friends.” We certainly felt that way.

We arrived in Padua that afternoon to stay for a few days. Catia was lovely and well informed about the city. We had a great time exploring a city we had never been to through drink and food.

Catia was an incredible teacher and host! Not only did we make and enjoy an amazing meal, we also learned a lot about the history behind the dishes and the region. We especially enjoyed her use of seasonal ingredients and things grown from her own garden! Catia was so welcoming and wonderful, it truly felt like an evening cooking with a friend.

Cesarina from 2020Location: Selvazzano Dentro    Languages: Italian and English
Catia, our Cesarina, lives on the outskirts of Padua, a city full of treasures to be discovered. Art, culture, history and gastronomy, imposing squares, alleys and shops, nothing is really missing. Even in our Cesarina's home nothing is missing: delicacies that trace the typical Venetian and Paduan flavors, made with raw materials, most of which come from farms in the area.
