Catia

Catia, our Cesarina, lives on the outskirts of Padua, a city full of treasures to be discovered. Art, culture, history and gastronomy, imposing squares, alleys and shops, nothing is really missing. Even in our Cesarina's home nothing is missing: delicacies that trace the typical Venetian and Paduan flavors, made with raw materials, most of which come from farms in the area.

It was a wonderful experience; Catia is truly a lovely person, full of ideas, and she provided us with very interesting insights into cooking. We prepared cheesecakes, ravioli with red dough, and a very special appetizer together. In addition, she prepared a trio of cicchetti with delicious and original pairings, all while chatting pleasantly about a lot of things and sharing the experience in the company of her 7 adorable cats.

Catina was incredibly friendly, and we could truly feel her love for Italian cuisine, especially the dishes from her hometown. We enjoyed warm and comfortable hospitality in her beautiful home. This cooking class offers a wide variety of dishes to enjoy, and making pasta by hand was particularly fun. We had a wonderful time cooking while chatting with her. It is a cooking class well worth visiting—I highly recommend it.

I booked a vegan cooking class experience as a birthday gift for my wife. Catia welcomed us with a smile and her five beautiful cats. We chatted for a bit and then immediately started cooking. The menu included: - soy stracchino served with whole wheat flatbreads with oily seeds - cashew nut aged cheese flavored with herbs - ravioli filled with almond ricotta and spinach - vegan tiramisu It took a while to prepare everything but it was absolutely worth it! Everything was delicious, but the cashew nut aged cheese and the tiramisu literally captivated us! Catia answered all our questions and generously shared her experience with us, so we could recreate those delicacies at home! Thank you!
