Ragu is one of those delicious traditional dishes that can turn an ordinary day into a festive moment! In my kitchen, among chats and laughter, we will prepare three types of fresh pasta and the ragù, a rich and tasty sauce just like my grandmother used to make.
Ready with the rolling pin? I'll teach you all the secrets... Finally, we will sit down at the table and taste the dishes prepared together with a good wine.

- Paola was a great host. She welcomed us in her cozy and charming house to teach me and my partner how to make tortelone, tagliatelle, and tiramisu. She was very patient and explained all the steps in a perfect English. The food was delicious. She made us some appetisers such as bruschetta and focaccia with ricotta and olives. The experience was delightful and it was a pleasure to meet Paola. We super recommend it, it was a 10/10.
- Bella Esperienza, utile e piacevole. Paola ci ha accolti calorosamente e ci ha guidato con pazienza nella realizzazione dei nostri tortellini che poi abbiamo gustato felici per essere riusciti così rapidamente ad imparare a farli. Esperienza eccezionale da consigliare e ripetere.
- It was a lovely and amazing experience, we loved.
- Paola gave us an amazing experience. She warmly welcomed us into her home and generously shared family recipes with us. It was so informative and we have made the recipes since! Highly recommend!
- We had a great time making pasta and tiramisu with Paola. She was extremely patient with our lack of cocking skills, spoke perfect English and told us lots of tricks that we can apply at home. Nonetheless, food was delicious, much better than what we tried in restaurants, so we can fully recommend the experience.
