Your experience

- Tiramisù
Welcome to my kitchen, nestled in the Bolognese hills of Varignana, in a land rich in history and tradition. Here, at Podere Sant’Anna, surrounded by nature and centuries of heritage, I will guide you through the preparation of two Italian culinary classics: fresh pasta and tiramisù.
Together, we will knead, roll out, and hand-cut tagliatelle, paired with a traditional sauce, and craft delicious tortellini, unveiling the secrets passed down through generations. Finally, we’ll end on a sweet note by making tiramisù, the ultimate Italian dessert.
It will be an authentic experience, filled with hands-on cooking and culinary stories, allowing you to take a bit of this magic home with you. I can’t wait to welcome you!

- Stunning location “Tuscan Style” with an exterior park that offers a magnificent view over Bologna landscape. The Etruscan civilization that flourished in central Italy eight hundreds years B.C, must have left something special in this magic place where Ester is capable to transform every dish in a real emotion you’ll never forget ….
- I had an excellent experience and I learnt some of the wonderful secrets Ester shared with us about how to cook the traditional food of her family. Great atmosphere and amazing location. It is not only a course but it is like being ina real Italian family and cooking the great lunch for a big family. Great emotion. Thanks Ester. You're the best

Cesarina from 2024Location: Castel San Pietro Terme Languages: Italian, English, FrenchEmilian by origin, adopted Bolognese, and a Cesarina in spirit for as long as I can remember. While my work took me around the world, it felt natural to cook pasta and Italian recipes wherever I was. My recipes became a universal language through which my guests could share and, in turn, recreate a world of heartfelt and gratifying emotions. Today, I am proud to be a true Cesarina, ready to welcome and share simple and unique experiences here in the Bolognese hills, celebrating the tradition of our cuisine. What I offer: traditional dishes from Bologna and Piacenza, carefully selected and locally sourced ingredients, and the secrets of grandmothers, aunts, and friends—secrets no technology can reveal or replicate.
