Shared Experience
Your experience
- Ricotta and spinach ravioli
- Pappardelle with vegetarian ragù
- Stricchetti with fresh tomato sauce
- Vegan tiramisu
I will welcome you to my home on Via degli Orti, in the heart of Bologna, with a glass of wine. Together we will prepare everything from scratch, just as in the tradition of true Bolognese sfogline.
We will make three types of fresh pasta: ricotta and spinach ravioli, pappardelle topped with a rich vegetarian ragù, and stricchetti with fresh tomato sauce. We’ll finish with a delicious homemade vegan tiramisu.
During the cooking class, I’ll guide you step by step, sharing techniques, traditions and secrets of Italian fresh pasta. After cooking, we’ll enjoy everything we’ve prepared together, accompanied by a good bottle of local wine and a coffee.

- Olga is such a heartwarming and highly competent teacher! She doesn't just show you the techniques, but also explains the "why" behind the steps or the history behind the dishes. There are truly no words to describe how much I enjoyed our cooking classes and how much I appreciate her as a person. I am so thankful for the wonderful time we spent together. I highly recommend taking one of her classes. I would definitely come back every time I'm in Bologna!
- We had the best afternoon making pasta fresca and tiramisu with Olga. She was an expert host - very warm and welcoming, generous and she shared so many amazing techniques. I would highly recommend her classes for an authentic experience and delicious food!
- Olga was incredible! She is incredibly knowledgeable about food and really knows what she's talking about. As someone who is already very into cooking and making pasta, she taught me so many new tips and tricks. On top of that, due to some last minute rescheduling with the platform there had been some mix ups on the class, which she handled incredibly well and resolved the confusion swiftly. Me and my husband had so much fun with our time with her and we couldn't recommend her more!
- Olga is a great cooking teacher! She is very knowledgeable, patient, thorough and encouraging. She clearly explained what we were to do, and why it is done that way. She created a relaxed and fun atmosphere, and our time with her was thoroughly enjoyable. The food we made together was delicious!
- Olga is amazing. So calm and knowledgeable. I loved the personal approach and the little tips to make the pasta so light and delicate. Highly recommend this if you’re interested in food.

Cesarina from 2026Location: Bologna (BO) Languages: Italian, English, SpanishMy cooking always starts with handmade pasta — that slow, precise gesture of rolling out the dough, choosing the right shape, feeling the mixture come to life between your fingers. Traditional Italian first courses are my greatest love: I prepare them with care, pairing them with rich, fragrant sauces built on simple ingredients and plenty of time. And it never ends without something sweet: from the great classics to my lighter variations, because a meal without a little sweetness at the end isn't really complete.
