Welcome! I’m Marco, and I’ll be welcoming you to the tranquil countryside of Anzola Emilia, with a convenient meeting point near the Bologna train station. My home, a beautifully renovated old barn, is surrounded by a cozy garden and patio, perfect for enjoying food and wine together.
With the help of my wife Silvia, we’ll guide you in preparing two types of traditional Bolognese fresh pasta, including stuffed ravioli. Each of you will have your own workspace and will feel like a true “sfoglina” (pasta maker).
We’ll start with an aperitif in our garden patio and then savor the two pasta dishes we’ve created, finishing with dessert.
I can’t wait to share with you the authentic flavors and warm hospitality of Bologna!

- We booked Marco and Silvia's cooking class during our visit in Bologna. It was thoroughly easily one of the best experience during our trip in Italy. We had anticipated to meet at a location in the city center, but Marco arrived at our rendezvous and picked us up in his personal vehicle and drove us 15-20min outside of the city center. We arrived at his lovely country home and got to meet his family. Silvia was the head pasta teacher while Marco showed us how he made the sauce. We really enjoyed conversating with his family and learned about Italian cooking culture. The class was thorough and very informative. We finished off the day enjoying our cooking over a glass or two of wine and more great conversation. We highly recommend this class for small groups who enjoy intimate family feel rather than a big group. Thank you Marco for inviting us to your beautiful family.
- A wonderful day with Marco and his family. A good chance to learn how to make pasta and then eat it all with tasty sauces
- This experience has been the highlight of our trip to Italy. Marco, Silvia, and Andrea were such great hosts and made us feel like we were at a friend's house for dinner. We had a great food, had great conversations, and it was an experience that my wife and I will never forget.
- Marco and Silvia's home for an amazing evening of spritz's, apps, pasta making/eating and desserts. Truly a warm and authtically Italian evening. Highly recommended.
- Super. Accueil parfait. Cours adapté à tout les niveaux. Je recommande l’activité à 100%. Belle découverte de la campagne
