Hi from Paola!

I bring to the table dishes from three borders: Austria, Slovenia, and Italy. From my birth family, typical peasant dishes of Friulian tradition like frico, dishes with vegetables from the garden that follow the seasons, or artisan cured meats (my husband is a charcuterie enthusiast). Steaming polenta also accompanies game dishes such as wild boar or roe deer. From my husband's family, I learned more Nordic and Slavic traditions like sauerkraut, goulash, and potica. I also enjoy working with sourdough to prepare bread and focaccia.

: It was absolutely wonderful! We have never attended a course like this before. At Paola’s home, we immediately felt comfortable and welcome. It’s impossible to describe how great Paola’s hospitality is. She even organized her own translator, who was equally wonderful and friendly. All that remains to say is: Wonderful. Unique. An experience of a special class! Thank you for every single minute! Tanja & Michael, Vienna

: The whole experience was amazing, definitely the best highlight to my trip to Italy. Paola and her family were most welcoming and the food was incredible from starts to dessert, also learning new techniques and skills in the kitchen was great. I would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to try traditional, authentic Italian food 🇮🇹 😁
: Paola and her family are amazing. The cooking class and the whole experience was well established and the dishes were impeccable. Thank you for everything and hope to see you in the future!
: Great evening with Paola, Loris, their daughter and a friend of theirs. Fried focaccia accompanied by amazing toppings, and we even brought some sourdough starter home, learning how to take care of it! Paola is a gem.
