Shared Experience
Your experience
I will welcome you to my elegant ground-floor flat, complete with a relaxing garden, for an authentic Bolognese experience. We’ll start with a small welcome aperitif to get us straight into a convivial atmosphere.
Together we’ll prepare both the ricotta-filled pappardelle from scratch, rolling out the pasta by hand, and the traditional Bolognese ravioli with plum jam.
After cooking, we’ll enjoy everything together: the pappardelle with a fragrant fresh tomato sauce, accompanied by local wine, and the ravioli as a dessert. We’ll finish with a good coffee.
An intimate, elegant and authentic experience at the heart of tradition.

- A very special cooking experience with a lovely lady. If you make a reservation with Olga will be very happy. It was a brilliant experience and I cannot recommend Olga too highly for an experience Cesarine
- we really enjoyed cooking with olga! she was lovely and very fun :) thank you so much :)
- Olga was so kind and knowledgeable! Learning from her felt like cooking with a friend. I’ve left my lesson with an improved understanding of the mechanics of pasta making, some Bologna recommendations, a full stomach, and light spirits from friendly conversation. I highly recommend Olga to anyone looking for a Bolognese cooking class, I had so much fun!
- Olga’s private pasta making class was one of my favorite experiences in Bologna. The setting in a real local home made it feel so authentic and gave the whole experience a very different feel from a typical cooking class. We made three different pasta shapes, and Olga was such a patient and knowledgeable teacher. She really paid attention to my technique and taught me all the little details that make a difference. The best part, of course, was eating the fresh pasta we had made! We had such a nice time chatting about Italy, Bologna, food, traditions, and life. Such a warm, fun, and memorable experience. Olga definitely made me want to cook! ❤️
- Olga is unbelievably knowledgeable, skillful, warm and hospitable. I will practice and treasure the recipes and techniques she gave.

Where
Olga
Cesarina from 2026Location: Bologna (BO) Languages: Italian, English, SpanishMy cooking always starts with handmade pasta — that slow, precise gesture of rolling out the dough, choosing the right shape, feeling the mixture come to life between your fingers. Traditional Italian first courses are my greatest love: I prepare them with care, pairing them with rich, fragrant sauces built on simple ingredients and plenty of time. And it never ends without something sweet: from the great classics to my lighter variations, because a meal without a little sweetness at the end isn't really complete.
