Your experience
- tagliatelle with meat sauce
- Tiramisù
Rosa welcomes us in the middle of Bologna's historic center: a maze of brightly colored narrow streets, embellished by the medieval buildings and typical porticoes of the Emilian capital. Our Cesarina's house is located on a side street of Via Indipendenza, one of the city's most important streets, a short distance from Piazza Maggiore and the Two Towers.
The class includes the preparation and tasting of:
Sausage and spinach meatballs
Traditional Tagliatelle with ragout ( typical meat sauce)
Tiramisù
I also host vegans and vegetarians, with whom I will make arrangements for a menu tailored to their needs.

- Wonderful experience with Rosa! Very patient and an excellent teacher. The food we made was delicious and I learned the delicate and difficult task of making tortellini! Could not recommend higher, absolutely fantastic!
- Rosa L. welcomed me into her home with much gratitude, professionalism, and patience. She explained in detail how the evening would go working in her kitchen. She did an amazing job at explaining the steps and in providing constructive feedback as the cooking began. I learned quite a lot especially as we were able to engage in conversation along the way. Rosa shares how to take a complex dish and make it easy. I particularly liked how she was able to gage how experienced one was in the kitchen. Rosa has a talent in being able to assess where one's cooking skills are and in assessing how to increase one's confidence and technical abilities. Cooking in a local resident's kitchen is certainly a way to quickly learn and understand about an unfamiliar place. Strongly recommend!
- Rosa L. welcomed me in to her cooking space with much gratitude, professionalism, and patience. She explained in details how the evening would go working in her kitchen. She did an amazing job at explaining the steps and of providing further advice/support as the cooking began. I learned quite a lot especially as were able to engage in conversation and create such flavorful fresh dishes. I particularly liked how she was able to gage how experienced one as in the kitchen and how to meet you where you are at.
- Our time with Rosa was simply perfect! She welcomed us into her apartment like old friends, and we really felt as if an Italian relative was teaching us their cooking secrets. She was encouraging as well as instructive. Breaking bread with her at the end of the lesson felt so natural. Getting to hang out with "Tony Tony" added to the pleasure of the afternoon. We hope to come back and have another lesson in Bologna with Rosa!
- We had such a wonderful evening at Rosa’s house! We made delicious Italian food, and meanwhile we had nice conversations with Rosa about life in Bologna and all kind of other subjects. The recipes were easy to make and inspiring to try at home. It was so special for us to have the opportunity to meet Rosa, rather than having dinner in an anonymous restaurant. Thank you so much for welcoming us in your house!
