Paola

Bologna

Duration 3h

Max 8 guests

Spoken languages:  Italian, English, French

Small Group hands-on cooking class with 2 pasta recipes and tiramisù

Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Tagliatelle
  • Fried crescentine
  • Tiramisù with coffee and cocoa

Our lesson will begin with the preparation of the dough for the crescentine and tagliatelle. While the dough is resting, we'll dedicate ourselves to preparing the dessert. Following this, we'll roll out the dough for the crescentine and the egg pasta for the tagliatelle, which we'll then proceed to cut. The crescentine will be fried on the spot and served as an appetizer, accompanied by cured meats and cheeses. Depending on the chosen menu, traditional or vegetarian, the tagliatelle will be dressed with a delicious ragù or a vegetable sauce, both previously prepared by me.

I look forward to seeing you!

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!

Dear Paola, Thank you so much for creating such a wonderful evening for us, even though we arrived late. The pasta-making class was absolutely fantastic and very educational. The atmosphere was truly beautiful, and your amazing kitchen made the whole pasta experience even more special. We got along with Paola so well and had some amazing conversations throughout the evening. This is truly a must-do experience when visiting Italy — and if you’re in Bologna, definitely with Paola! P.S. Thank you for the great bar recommendation and for all your support and helpful information. You really made our short stay in Bologna extra special with your pasta class.

Amazing Pasta-Class - September 2025

Sono stata da Paola, ad imparare a fare tortelloni e tortellini. Non credevo di vivere una esperienza cosi' bella e trascorrere una giornata cosi' piacevole! Paola professionale, chiarissima nelle spiegazioni, empatica, simpatica, che mette a proprio agio gli ospiti, fin dall'inizio! Paola generosa di consigli e trucchetti, ti fa vivere e trascorrere ore piacevolissime e molto "appetitose". Consiglio a tutti una esperienza cosi', che non vedo l'ora di rivivere, con altre prelibatezze e insegnamenti di Paola!

We had the great fortune of having a private cooking session with Paola and had an amazing time. She is very kind and welcoming and shared so much knowledge and experiences with us. The food and wine were both incredible! An added bonus is the opportunity to spend time in her beautiful home and get a sense of what life in Bologna is like. Worth every penny!
