Hi from Giacomo!
I am originally from Cervia, but I moved to Rimini at the age of 25, and I have been living in Santarcangelo di Romagna for over 15 years, just a few kilometers away from Rimini and the sea. Santarcangelo is a lively inland town, full of commercial and dining activities, with a historic center particularly appreciated for its architecture and scenic beauty.I decided to dedicate myself full time to my lifelong passion: traditional and popular Romagna cuisine.Today, I am a professional sfoglino (pasta maker) for some famous local restaurants, and I enjoy experimenting with the many and varied local ingredients to create the best flavors.I love sharing my passion and my continuous search for excellent local raw materials with my friends and everyone who wants to experience the surprising sensations of Romagna cuisine. For this reason, I decided to open the doors of my home to the guests of Cesarine, confirming the hospitality of our territory, Romagna!

- Highly, highly recommend booking this cooking experience with Giacomo! He and Alex were absolutely lovely! My mom and I felt incredibly welcomed in their home. We shared laughs, conversation and of course pasta. Giacomo is an expert at his craft, and it's obvious. We have many photos and videos to commemorate the night. After dinner and dessert we went for a walk to see Santarcangelo at night. Beautiful experience!
- Giacomo’s class was the highlight of our time in Rimini and one of the best parts of our trip overall. We made a delicious 3-course meal (plus wine!) as well as many wonderful chats throughout. The ingredients were very fresh and local, and the food was truly unmatched! We learned about the town of Santarcangelo and got a real taste of authentic Italian culture. Giacomo even kindly helped us figure out our transportation (which we greatly appreciated). Overall, we would recommend this class to anyone interested in Italian cooking and having a meaningful experience, and we hope to come back soon!
