- Roberta was wonderful. Her kitchen was warm and inviting and she was very engaging. She took all the time we needed to explain techniques and the reasons for doing things. She provided additional information on how to make ragu and tiramisu. We talked about family and the region. The food was excellent. Absolutely worth our time and the fee. Thank you Roberta!
- È stata una piacevole parte della giornata con Roberta che si è dimostrata molto gentile, simpatica e disponibile nel farmi imparare e "giocare" con la cultura emiliana! Grazie ancora
- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had the most wonderful experience at Roberta G’s Italian cooking class in her warm and welcoming home. From the moment we arrived, she made us feel completely at ease. Her home is beautiful — and her kitchen is a dream! We learned how to make fresh tagliatelle pasta with a spicy sausage sauce, spinach and ricotta ravioli, and delicious tiramisù. Roberta guided us through every step with the relaxed ease of a great chef (she is one). And after all the learning (and lively conversation), we sat down to enjoy the meal we had created, and honestly, it tasted like restaurant-quality food. This was a highlight of our trip, and I can’t recommend Roberta and her cooking class highly enough. A truly unforgettable experience. 🍝🇮🇹
- Roberta is beyond exceptional from her personality to hospitality to knowledge as a Chef. The evening with Roberta is one of the highlights and wonderful experience we had in Bologna. AND thank you so much for the recipes that you send to me when I got back to Canada. An evening with Roberta is a must as you will look back on the experience for many many years to come. I know when we talk about our trip in Italy, Roberta's name becomes part of the conversation Just an amazing experience and a must if in Bologna
- Mes amies et moi avons passé un moment d’exception chez Roberta, en apprenant à cuisiner des tagliatelle al ragu absolument délicieuses. Roberta nous avait en plus prépare gracieusement un antipasto typique de Bologne et un dessert délicieux, le tout avec une bouteille de vin. La classe totale. Nous reviendrons

Where
Roberta
Cesarina from 2023Location: Bologna (BO) Languages: Italian, English, FrenchI love my kitchen both as a space and as a working environment. I enjoy getting my hands in the dough to make pasta, including thin sheets and shortcrust pastry. Being Tuscan, my cuisine is a blend of Tuscan and Emiliana traditions. From the typical lasagna and tagliatelle to the classic Tuscan pappa al pomodoro, my kitchen represents a fusion of these regional influences. The journey through traditional flavors continues with favorites like tiramisu and the iconic Prato biscuits, perfect for dipping into Vin Santo. My kitchen reflects my passion for tradition and the joy of sharing these gastronomic pleasures with others.
