Shared Experience
Your experience
I warmly welcome my guests in my picturesque garden located in via di San Luca, an oasis of flowers and aromatic plants with a view of the captivating Portico leading to the Basilica. The aperitif is served amidst the grove, an enchanting corner from where one can enjoy a breathtaking view of the city, while meals are presented under the garden's portico, a cozy and sheltered place thanks to thermal curtains, perfect even in winter months. The cooking course, on the other hand, comes to life in the kitchen adjacent to the garden. In an informal and relaxing atmosphere, my guests will also be able to taste local wines (like Pignoletto and Sangiovese) and homemade bread, thus recreating a true immersion in the local gastronomic traditions.

- This was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Bologna! The class took place in our chef’s beautiful home, which instantly made the experience feel warm and authentic. We started with a glass of crisp prosecco and learned to make three different kinds of pasta completely from scratch — each one more delicious than the last. The ingredients were unbelievably fresh, with herbs like sage picked straight from her garden. After cooking, we sat outside in her gorgeous garden and enjoyed our meal together — a perfect mix of laughter, great food, and wonderful company. If you’re looking for a genuine Italian cooking experience that feels both intimate and inspiring, this class is a must-do. I left full, happy, and ready to recreate these recipes at home!
- A fantastic cooking class. Adriana is a super warm and friendly host. She cooks authentically and shares her tips and tricks. Absolutely recommended.
- From the moment we arrived, Adriana welcomed us into her home like we were family. We had a wonderful time learning how to make tortelloni, tagliatelle and tiramisu. The three T’s! We would recommend Adriana highly to anyone who is looking forward to a fun experience and delicious food. Grazie, Adriana!
- We had a wonderful and fun experience cooking with Adriana in the company of a lovely couple who also attended the cooking course. Adriana is very welcoming, charismatic and fun. She carefully guided us through the traditional dishes of tiramisu, tortelloni and tagliatelle which we later enjoyed on Adriana’s lovely terrace. Thank you for a really great experience Adriana. We have planned pasta nights with friends in the upcoming weekend to spread your teaching.
- We had a wonderful experience preparing tiramisu, tortelloni, and tagliatelle with Adriana. She had a lovely set-up for lunch in her garden, and we enjoyed the company of two other guests. The whole experience was fun and now we feel more confident to prepare pasta at home. Thank you to Adriana for her warm hospitality and a memorable Bolognese Sunday lunch .

Cesarina from 2023Location: Bologna (BO) Languages: Italian, English, FrenchMy culinary passion embraces both the rich flavors of Petronian cuisine and the vibrant tastes of the Mediterranean. Among the delicacies my guests adore, the "Tortellini alla Goccia d'Oro" stands out, prepared with a reduction of hen broth, enriched with cream, Parmesan, and saffron, along with the irresistible Bolognese cutlet. Homemade pasta, bread-making, and pastry in general are the beating heart of my passion for cooking, a love I enjoy sharing through every dish I prepare.
