Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Hugo “Bolognese”. Pignoletto; elderflower syrup; water and/or sparkling water; lemon and/or lemon zest. A fantastic, wonderfully fragrant non-alcoholic aperitif
  • Potato gnocchi (with borage, beetroot or pumpkin). ‘Old’ potatoes and herbs to taste.
  • Soya ragù. Soya, celery, carrot, onion (and garlic) – we’ll make the soffritto together – wine and tomato. Get ready to cook.
  • Hummus. With beetroot, or pumpkin, or peas, or aubergines (baked). Delicious with warm focaccia.
  • Tiramisu With vegan cream, coffee, vegan biscuits and cocoa on top. Lots of delicious layers. It needs to chill for an hour: the first thing we’ll make

Nature and history teach us that vegan food has always been on our tables: we often don’t realise just how much ‘vegan’ there is around us. However, I prefer to create dishes with you using non-industrial ingredients, without ready-made mixes, for vegans. The dishes I propose here were chosen together with the course participants, based on their tastes and interests. Drawing on my experience with herbs, the result is a satisfying experience of incredible flavours and aromas.

Maren  - 

the class with Eleonora and Federico was so amazing - they are so delightful. They make u feel like u are hanging out with local friends at their stylish home. We learned a lot about Italian gastronomy and culture in Bologna and would definitely recommend them they adapt the italian cuisine to our vegan diet! they surprised us with homemade bread, special drinks, tiramisu and more. It made our trip to Bologna feel more special and authentic

Thank you so much for sending me that beautiful video. During such a long trip, the time spent with you two has become one of our most cherished memories. After the trip, I immediately bought the tools for making pasta in Italy to bring home (like the rolling pin for kneading). I plan to try making pasta as soon as possible. Once again, thank you so much!

Wonderful experience! Welcomed into Eleonora's home with a quick introduction to her and her husband Federico. Immediately into action getting our hands dirty and so many moments to cherish! Together with Eleonora's experience and passion, she conveys a love for what she does! Cooks, teachers, hosts (of the house) and also photo/video makers!! Thank you truly for this beautiful day with you and the delicious Bolognese food!

Eleonora e Federico

Cesarina from 2025Location: Bologna (BO)    Languages: Italian, English, Spanish, French
We cook dishes from the Bolognese and Romagnola tradition, but we also love to be inspired by other cuisines, which make our table more lively and flavorful. Tradition is our certainty, imagination the means to reinvent it. In our kitchen, seasonality guides the senses, and the search for harmony on the plate is often a topic of discussion between us, as we have shared a passion for good food for forty years — a passion that started in a restaurant! We inherited our love for cooking from our families: Eleonora from her mother, a painter, and her grandmother, a passionate homemaker; Federico from his grandmother, a master of lasagna and crème caramel, his father in passatelli, and the “dada” in the world’s best roast beef. For ten years we ran a shop-laboratory in the center of Bologna, where tradition and creativity met under the porticoes amid aromas, chatter, and the curiosity of passersby and tourists.
