Tasting of traditional dishes

Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Mozzarella in Carrozza (Fried Mozzarella Sandwich)
  • Meatballs
  • Fried cream

This experience is a journey into the world of fried Italian specialties, all to be enjoyed in my home just steps from the Giardini Margherita. We’ll start with Mozzarella in Carrozza, fried the moment you arrive—best enjoyed hot, with the cheese perfectly melting. Next, we’ll make meatballs, even more flavorful if we’ve prepared the broth in advance. And there may be a few surprises along the way.

To balance the fried dishes, we’ll taste my homemade vegetable giardiniera, a family recipe made with fresh seasonal vegetables. We’ll finish with fried custard, a classic treat. All of this will be paired with carefully selected local wines. Are you ready to discover the most authentic flavors of Bolognese tradition?

It was a very pleasant experience that we will remember for a long time. Federico and Eleonora guided us in making the pasta and tiramisu, and they shared some of their passion with us; we can't wait to recreate it at home. It was a rich moment of sharing for us and our children. Irreproachable quality and welcome.

They were amazing! Knowledgable, kind, and helpful! Couldn’t imagine a better pasta class

Eleonora and Federico were simply fantastic, this was the highlight of our 9 day trip! They were knowledgeable, patient, friendly, and just so fun to be around! It was especially unique being invited into their warm home to cook. Must do if you’re in Bologna!

6 hours after finishing our master class with Eleonora and Federico and we are still smiling! We had perfect communication from our hosts prior to the class, and we arrived to a very warm and inviting greeting into their beautiful home. Eleonora and Federico were attentive, extremely easy to talk to, funny and informative. Our lasagna making class was delivered at a perfect pace, going through each step, from making the pasta dough, rolling it out, making the béchamel sauce and constructing the dish. We even had time to make some fresh tagliatelle, which we ate as a small starter, before the main star of the show, the lasagne. We ate, with our hosts in their beautiful garden and drank several glasses of local wine with our meal. We will take away new skills, plenty of stories and valuable tips and fantastic memories. If you are considering booking this experience, do not hesitate, you will not be disappointed .

Eleonora e Federico

Cesarina from 2025Location: Bologna (BO)    Languages: Italian, English, Spanish, French
We cook dishes from the Bolognese and Romagnola tradition, but we also love to be inspired by other cuisines, which make our table more lively and flavorful. Tradition is our certainty, imagination the means to reinvent it. In our kitchen, seasonality guides the senses, and the search for harmony on the plate is often a topic of discussion between us, as we have shared a passion for good food for forty years — a passion that started in a restaurant! We inherited our love for cooking from our families: Eleonora from her mother, a painter, and her grandmother, a passionate homemaker; Federico from his grandmother, a master of lasagna and crème caramel, his father in passatelli, and the “dada” in the world’s best roast beef. For ten years we ran a shop-laboratory in the center of Bologna, where tradition and creativity met under the porticoes amid aromas, chatter, and the curiosity of passersby and tourists.
