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.

It was a very pleasant experience that we will remember for a long time. Federico and Eleonora guided us in making the pasta and tiramisu, and they shared some of their passion with us; we can't wait to recreate it at home. It was a rich moment of sharing for us and our children. Irreproachable quality and welcome.

They were amazing! Knowledgable, kind, and helpful! Couldn’t imagine a better pasta class

Eleonora and Federico were simply fantastic, this was the highlight of our 9 day trip! They were knowledgeable, patient, friendly, and just so fun to be around! It was especially unique being invited into their warm home to cook. Must do if you’re in Bologna!

6 hours after finishing our master class with Eleonora and Federico and we are still smiling! We had perfect communication from our hosts prior to the class, and we arrived to a very warm and inviting greeting into their beautiful home. Eleonora and Federico were attentive, extremely easy to talk to, funny and informative. Our lasagna making class was delivered at a perfect pace, going through each step, from making the pasta dough, rolling it out, making the béchamel sauce and constructing the dish. We even had time to make some fresh tagliatelle, which we ate as a small starter, before the main star of the show, the lasagne. We ate, with our hosts in their beautiful garden and drank several glasses of local wine with our meal. We will take away new skills, plenty of stories and valuable tips and fantastic memories. If you are considering booking this experience, do not hesitate, you will not be disappointed .

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.
