    Sole warmly welcomed us into her home and generously shared with us her vast knowledge of baking and extensive kitchen skills. My sister and I learned to make three typical Bolognese desserts. Sole gave us many helpful tips and the desserts were beautiful and delicious.

    My daughter and I had a delightful time last night with Cesarine Maria Sole and Rossella. They taught us how to make three delicious dishes with homemade pasta and their hospitality was exceptional. We were able to experience firsthand how genuinely wonderful the Bolognese people are. We highly recommend booking a cooking experience with them!

    Maria and Rossella were wonderful. They showed me how to make tortelloni, meatballs, and tiramisu. Also, paired the food with great wine. Perfect day with perfect hosts.

    With a Bolognese grandmother and a Sicilian one, I couldn’t help but fall in love with good cuisine from a young age. After taking several courses and completing a gastronomic master at the Gambero Rosso school, I traveled abroad, working as a chef in various restaurants. When I returned home, I felt the desire to share our cuisine with those who don’t yet know it, explaining its origins and preparations. I personally welcome my guests at home, trying to convey a bit of my passion and love for good food. My cooking is healthy, focused on the quality of ingredients, yet faithful to tradition. Beyond typical Bolognese specialties, I love plant-based dishes and pastry. My goal is to provide a complete experience: from taste to understanding, explaining each preparation in both Italian and English, so that guests can enjoy not only the dishes but also the history and care behind them.
