My husband, daughter (8yo) and I went to Rosa’s house to have a cooking class. From the moment she opened the door we knew we were in for an authentic Italian experience. Rosa was energetic, patient and fun. It was Easter Sunday so she offered us some traditional Colomba. We were with two more people in the class and we made delicious food (tagliatelle, tortelloni and tiramisu). We absolutely recommend doing this as it was such a highlight in our family trip. We had great food and great conversations. My daughter was delighted too.

Rosa was a fantastic Cesarina who made us feel like we were at a Sunday family lunch at home. We learned so much about pasta and Italian and Bolognese cuisine, and she gave us plenty of ideas to help us recreate what we learned once we're back home. We highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something authentic and non-touristy.

Rosa gave me a wonderful experience during my stay in Bologna, and it is now a fond memory. I went empty-handed, but everything was provided for me, even an apron. During the class, I learned not only how to cook, but also local information, recommendations for delicious restaurants, and many other topics, and the conversations were very enjoyable. The teacher was good at giving compliments. She also took lots of photos and videos, which I was very happy to be able to look back on later. At the end, she sent me recipes for the dishes I made, as well as other recipes. Thank you very much.

Incontrare Rosa è stato come incontrare un'anima gemella, perché è una persona davvero gentile. È un dato di fatto che Adriano e io ci sentiamo a casa. Una chef meravigliosa e una persona molto intelligente. Passeremo un bellissimo pomeriggio nella tua cucina, se conosci la cugina Rosa, verrò a casa tua tutti i giorni per un mese haha.

Rosa was a great host, very knowledgable and friendly, welcoming us into her home. We had fun making pasta and tiramisu whilst the cat watched. Fabulous experience 💙😀
