Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
We are in the 1950s and 60s, when pasta became the main food on Italian tables: bucatini, maccheroni, spaghetti...as long as it was pasta, always served with tomato sauce.
In this context, Italian cinema reached its peak, along with the vision of the Bel Paese. During this time, Pietro Germi's two most successful films were released in Italy, while in America, a unique perception of "Italianness" emerged.
The iconic dish overseas became "spaghetti meatballs," which we offer you as tradition dictates, with the components cooked separately.
Our cooking class features egg spaghetti with tomato sauce and meatballs, aiming to recreate the atmosphere of Italy from those years at the table.

- Maurizio è un ottimo padrone di casa e con Marco hanno creato un' atmosfera familiare sin da subito. Mi sono divertita tanto e ho imparato una ricetta veloce e sfiziosa. Consiglio a tutti di fare quest' esperienza che io ripeterò sicuramente!
- Serata molto divertente e diversa dal solito, all' insegna del buon cibo, del buon vino e spensieratezza. Grazie all' ospitalità di Maurizio e Marco e alla loro contagiosa allegria, quella che apparentemente sembra una serata condivisa tra sconosciuti, nel giro di pochi minuti, diventa una serata tra amici a casa. Veramente una bellissima scoperta!
- È stata un'esperienza bellissima, da ripetere! Maurizio è stato davvero molto accogliente, ci ha fatto divertire ed è stato molto paziente nell insegnarci i vari procedimenti. È stata un'ottima occasione per conoscere persone nuove, è un'esperienza che consiglio a tutti!
- È stata un'esperienza molto bella! Un'occasione per imparare e conoscere nuove persone! Maurizio simpaticissimo e riesce a mettere tutti a proprio agio creando spunti di conversazione! Il cibo ovviamente top! Da ripetere!
- Wow! What an amazing cooking experience with Maurizio. We were invited to his beautiful apartment in Bologna to learn to make and cook pasta. His home and ambience was the perfect setting. The food we made was delicious! Starter simple tomato & garlic bruschetta. The main course we learnt to make ravioli filled with spinach and ricotta and tagliatelle ragu bolognaise. Followed by a very tasty tiramisu! Maurizio made it fun and exciting experience with beautiful back ground music and some good Prosecco for my partners special birthday. We both would highly recommend learning to cook Italian food with Maurizio and hope to return again next year. Thanks again Tracey & Andrew.
