Shared Experience
Your experience
- Erbazzone
- Tagliatelle
- Scarpinocc (stuffed pasta)
- Tiramisu or lemon mousse
We will start with a tasty appetiser based on Erbazzone Reggiano. After that, we will get our hands dirty and prepare tagliatelle together, to be enjoyed with my homemade ragù, and Scarpinocc, traditional Bergamo ravioli stuffed with cheese. We will finish on a sweet note with a classic Tiramisu or a fresh lemon mousse with a digestive touch.
I look forward to welcoming you to my home on the outskirts of Bergamo for a convivial experience dedicated to good traditional food. I will show you how to make simple dishes that you can then replicate at home.

- Amazing evening. A wonderfully personal experience. Fantastic food and cooking skills to take home with us in the setting of Alessandro and his family’s very generous hosting.
- Ottimo cibo, apprendimento pratico e ambiente accogliente! Non posso dire abbastanza cose belle su questa esperienza. Ho avuto la fortuna di essere accolto nella casa di Alessandro e, oltre a un'esperienza pratica di apprendimento, abbiamo avuto una grande conversazione - ho anche avuto il piacere di conoscere i suoi due figli che sono deliziosi! Da viaggiatore solitario, accolto nella casa di qualcuno che vive a Bergamo da molti decenni, questa esperienza è stata incredibilmente significativa.
- Our evening at Alessandros was truly a highlight of our trip. We cannot reccomend it enough. We made two pasta dishes, and a tiramisu. The food was amazing, and the course was very hands on and so much better than we had expected. We cannot wait to try the recipes at home, and we both really felt that we learned a lot! The home was also super cozy, and we felt very welcomed by Alessandro and his family! Highly recomend!
- Bellissima esperienza a casa di Alessandro, Cesarina a Bergamo. Ci ha accolti con grande calore nella sua casa e ci ha insegnato a preparare gli scarpinocc de par con passione e competenza. Oltre al laboratorio di cucina, ci ha deliziati con un ottimo menù di ispirazione emiliana, legato alle sue origini, accompagnato da vino davvero eccellente. Atmosfera conviviale, chiacchiere piacevoli e grande disponibilità. Un’esperienza autentica e assolutamente da consigliare!
- We truly cannot recommend the cooking experience at Alessandro’s home enough. From the moment we arrived, we felt like family. Alessandro welcomed us so warmly and shared incredible stories while teaching us his traditional family recipes. The food was absolutely AMAZING - every single dish was better than the last. This experience was truly the highlight of our trip and something we will never forget. If you’re even thinking about booking it, do it. You won’t regret it.

Where
Alessandro
Cesarina from 2024Location: Bergamo (BG) Languages: Italian and EnglishMy name is Alessandro Carlini, I was born in Milan in 1961 to parents from Emilia. My father was originally from Sestola, a mountain village in the province of Modena, and he taught me how to make Berlenghi, a typical specialty from that part of the Apennines. These are very thin crêpes made from a simple, liquid batter consisting of water, flour, and salt, which is called "colla." Another specialty from the Modenese Apennines is Crescentine (better known as Tigelle), a small, round type of bread, which, like Berlenghi, are traditionally served with Modenese pesto—a blend of lard, garlic, and rosemary, accompanied by Parmesan cheese. Alternatively, these dishes can be paired with cured meats, cheeses, vegetables, or Nutella for a sweet version.
