During this cooking class at my home, the Cesarina Rosa in downtown Bologna, you will learn to prepare 3 typical Bolognese fresh pasta recipes.
Under my guidance, you will learn how to make the dough, roll out the pastry and prepare fresh pasta following my family's recipes.
Each participant will have his or her own station and will work actively, will be provided with a handout where the recipes will be explained, with ingredients and steps.

- Pleasant evening beyond all expectations. In addition to the cooking fundamentals taught by Rosa, I was able to appreciate her great hospitality, her genuine kindness and sincere enthusiasm! Qualities now rare to find... therefore an excellent experience both gastronomically and humanly, absolutely to be recommended! Thank you Rosa!
- We had an incredible culinary experience at Rosa's home. In addition to learning how to cook food in the local way, she also told us about some Italian products. I recommend visiting her. You will really immerse yourself in the typical atmosphere of Bologna, and you will also meet an incredibly kind person.
- Taking a cooking class with Rosa felt like being invited into your mom’s best friends house. We had a blast, and it instantly felt comfortable and at home. The food was amazing, and I already bought the few tools I need to make them again at my house! Cannot recommend Rosa enough!
- I am visiting Italy for the first time and barely speak Italian. Even so, Rosa was extremely welcoming and made me feel at home. She helped me learn different pasta shapes and fillings in a constructive way. In the end, the pasta was amazing and this class was the highlight of the trip. If you are looking for a homely meal with an extremely kind person to guide your lesson, Rosa is the person for you.
- My son and I did a pasta and Tiramisu class with Rosa. She was a wonderful teacher and we had so much fun. She was very friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. I highly recommend this activity.

Cesarina from 2018Location: Bologna (BO) Languages: Italian and EnglishI live on the outskirts of Bologna, surrounded by greenery, together with my two cats, Tony and Gino, whose playful personalities always keep the house full of life. I am a lawyer by profession, but I have always loved cooking and the culinary traditions of Bologna, which are an important part of my life. In my free time, I enjoy preparing the classic dishes of our cuisine, sometimes adding a personal touch, and sharing these moments with friends and guests in a warm and authentic atmosphere.
