Shared Experience
Your experience
- Piadina (stuffed traditional flat bread) with cold cuts craft
- Tortelloni (homemade pasta) with butter and sage
- Tiramisù
Take a seat at my table to savor forgotten recipes that have been treasured and passed down for generations.
During this cooking class you will learn how to prepare 3 recipes: a typical appetizer such as piadina, tortelloni and a fantastic tiramisu.
Under my guidance you will learn how to make dough like a real sfoglina and how to prepare fresh pasta, following my family's recipes.
Everyone will participate in making the recipe, and everyone will be provided with an apron and a handout, where the recipes will be explained, with ingredients and steps.
At the end of the course you will be able to relax at the table, enjoying a 3-course menu, whether lunch or dinner, including appetizer, main course and dessert that we will have prepared together, all accompanied by a good local wine.

- Alessandra was amazing! Kind, sweet and so talented! Walked our family through making 2 delicious pasta dishes and perfect tiramisu! The house was lovely and she was so hospitable!
- We had so much fun meeting Alessandra. She was welcoming and informative. She made learning how to make pasta seem so accessible and simple. We had an opportunity to get to know a bit more about her, learn some history about food in the various regions of Italy, and chat with her delightful father for a few minutes! The people, food, and experience was exactly what we were hoping for. If you enjoy meeting local people when you travel plus learning something new, I highly recommend this experience and Alessandra!
- We did a food walking tour with Alessandra . She was absolutely fantastic. Her English is incredible and she took time to get to know us and design a perfect tour for us balanced with what we had already done. She has incredible knowledge and came up with a great way to cook everything we asked about. We had a wonderful picnic lunch in the footsteps of Stanley Tucci - Amazing Host
- Alessandra and our cooking experience absolute perfection! She was so warm and welcoming and the environment was peaceful and inviting. We even got to briefly meet her cute, funny father! :) Alessandra is so skilled yet was incredibly patient with us as we formed dough and rolled it out. The food was outstanding… we kept thinking “we can’t believe we just made that!” :) She gave us great information about cooking processes and about the food in the region and beyond. We would 100% recommend this experience and Alessandra to anyone looking for a great time while in or near Bologna. It was definitely worth a train ride.
- I had an amazing experience making pasta. Alessandra was very kind, knowledgeable, and patient. I felt right at home in her class. Can’t wait until the next class. Thank you so much for everything !
