Lasagne and zuppa inglese... and the party’s on!

The restoration of paintings and frescoes is my profession, but my true passion is cooking. The attention to detail required in my work is the same precision I bring to my handmade pasta—tagliatelle, lasagne, tortellini, and tortelloni—all rigorously prepared with fresh dough rolled by hand using a rolling pin. My specialty is ragù alla Bolognese, while for main courses, I love preparing traditional dishes from my region, Emilia-Romagna, such as roasts and meatballs. Vegetables are always present on my table, often with a touch of Neapolitan influence, which also inspires me to prepare some delicious seafood dishes. The view from my home, just outside the center of Bologna and near the Portico di San Luca, is simply breathtaking—I look forward to welcoming you to admire it together!
