Hi from Rosa!

You can find your way to Rosa’s delightful home through the colourful, winding streets of Bologna’s historical centre. Make sure you take the time to admire the ancient buildings and porticoes unique to this stunning city! Rosa’s apartment is just off the main shopping street, Via dell’Indipendenza, just a stone’s throw away from Piazza Maggiore and the Due Torri. Rosa is a lawyer by profession, and fills her spare time with sport and cooking. She’s lived in the city for over 45 years, and is passionate about the area’s culinary traditions. “I took a great cooking course where I learned to make fresh pasta and iconic Bolognese dishes.”

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 with Rosa! My husband and I booked our experience on our last night in Bologna, and it was such a great way to end that portion of our honeymoon. She was so welcoming and an amazing teacher -- I went into the experience with a good amount of experience making fresh pasta, and I left SO much more confident! Our meal was delicious, the wine was flowing, and Rosa even ran out to grab my favorite Emilian cheese when I mentioned that I loved it. Would highly recommend this experience! We had so much fun!

Was für ein wundervoller Abend! Ich bin alleine nach Bologna gereist und habe für meinen Geburtstag einen Kochkurs bei Rosa gebucht. Es war fantastisch! Rosa ist eine wunderbare Gastgeberin, ich habe mich sofort wohlgefühlt und sie ins Herz geschlossen, ebenso ihren lieben Kater. Rosa ist aufgeschlossen, lustig und wir hatten beim Zubereiten der Gerichte eine Menge Spaß und gute Gespräche. Es war ein wundervoller Abend, ich kann es nur empfehlen und komme gerne wieder! Grazie di cuore!

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!

Cooking with Rosa was the highlight of my visit to Bologna. She welcomed us into her home and by the time we left we felt like family. Rosa's guidance was brilliant, and helped to produce the best pasta we have ever tasted. The little extras - making bruschetta for us and sharing wine - made this feel like an intimate gathering of friends. We love you Rosa!
