    I will meet my guests in the city center. Together we will visit the two most important herb markets and typical delicatessen shops, where we will buy cold meats and cheese. When the tour is over, we will walk home, where we will cook typical regional recipes.

    In particular, I will teach my guests how to knead and roll out pasta, making tagliatelle or tortelloni. Lunch or dinner will end with a dessert, always made together with the guests.

    Highly recommend, couldn’t ask for a better host to teach us traditional pasta making. Paola is amazing. The result of our pasta and tiramisu was delicious. It was our first time ever doing something like this and the outcome surprised us.

    My husband and I went to get pasta making class….. Paola was incredible! Her house and kitchen were very clean and beautifully decorated. As a host, Paola was classy, welcoming and treated us like royalty. She was a kind, patient and funny instructor. The food was absolutely delicious. We had a blast and if we could, we would give her 20+ stars. I wish I can take her home (USA) with me because she is fun and her food is marvelous.

    I recently had the absolute pleasure of joining Paola for her Market Tour and Cooking Class in Bologna, and I can't sing her praises loudly enough! From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of magical. The market tour was an absolute delight. Paola's extensive knowledge of the local produce, coupled with her infectious enthusiasm, made every moment exciting and informative. She shared fantastic shopping tips that even the locals would find valuable, guiding us through selecting the freshest ingredients. Her passion for the market was evident, and it was such a joy to explore it with her expert guidance. When it came to the cooking class, Paola's warm and welcoming nature immediately put us at ease. Despite being pasta novices, my partner and I felt right at home. Paola made everything super approachable, breaking down each step so clearly that we turned out dishes that tasted like they were crafted by seasoned chefs! The highlights of the day included crafting delicious homemade pasta, preparing the most decadent tiramisu, and savoring her incredible homemade sun-dried tomatoes. Each dish was a testament to Paola's skill and love for Italian cuisine. We left the class with not just full stomachs, but also a wealth of new culinary skills and unforgettable memories. Paola's Market Tour and Cooking Class is a must-do for anyone seeking a relaxing, fun, and authentic Italian cooking experience. My partner and I highly recommend it – it's an experience that will stay with us forever!

    My family and I had a wonderful experience with Paola during our cooking class. She made us very welcome, explained very well about the cuisine of Bologna and what we were about to make. Not only that, she was amusing and interesting and made everyone laugh and be involved.Paola’s house was also very much of an Emilia Romagna’s style and we loved looking at her kitchen, dining room and garden outside. She made us feel like we were old friends of hers. Memorable experience

    What a fabulous morning spent with Paola, learning how to make tortelloni, tagliatelle and tiramisu. Paola is a wonderful teacher and very warm and welcoming. It was a fantastic hands on experience to learn how to make these dishes, and to then to sit down and enjoy them with Paola's warm hospitality, and good company from the other participants. A highlight from our visit to Bologna!
