Ciao da Paola!
Di origini calabresi, con profonde influenze siciliane ereditate da mia nonna e napoletane dalla famiglia di mia madre, porto con me un ricco patrimonio culinario. Da 25 anni vivo a Bologna, dove ho abbracciato con passione la tradizione gastronomica locale, diventando esperta nella preparazione dei grandi classici bolognesi. Amo però sperimentare, creando piatti nuovi che fondono le mie radici con l’ispirazione del momento. La mia cucina è un viaggio tra sapori autentici e innovazione, sempre guidato dall’amore per la convivialità e per gli ingredienti di qualità.
Le mie specialità
- Tagliatelle alla bolognese
- Ravioli ripieni

- My family and I scheduled this pasta class with high hopes and Paola did not disappoint! We entered her lovely home in the center of Bologna and felt welcomed and comfortable. Paola is learning English and had a translator with her who we also loved (thank you Agnese!). We were immediately put to work making tiramisu, pumpkin gnocchi and tagliatelle ragu. Paola had done quite a bit of preparation so everything was ready for us. She was organized, clean, and kept us all busy. We enjoyed the meal (which was so much food!) at her dining room table and stayed chatting for quite some time, never feeling rushed. It was a wonderful experience that I will not soon forget. We arrived home in the US and my teenagers asked if they could make "Paola's pumpkin gnocchi" this week. Paola was the perfect host and I would love to go back and learn more from her, she has so much knowledge. Paola, we will be back - next time lasagna and pizza dough! Grazie mille!!
- Loved this experience! It was intimate and fun. Paola gave great guidance and the food we made together was delicious. Preparing our meal in a real Italian home kitchen/setting sets this experience apart from the other pasta making classes. We were treated like good friends but left as family. #WarmandElegantdiningexperience #Highlyrecommend #Wonderful #TwoPastasand Tiramisu
- My mom and I had the most unforgettable experience with Paola during our private cooking class in Bologna. From the moment we arrived, Paola welcomed us into her beautiful home with such warmth and hospitality—it truly felt like visiting a longtime friend. With the help of the amazing translator, Anna, Paola patiently guided us through making authentic pasta from scratch, delicious ravioli, and the most heavenly tiramisu. Every step was hands-on and full of laughter, and we learned so much about traditional Italian cooking along the way. Paola’s passion for food and hosting shines through in everything she does. This was easily one of the most special and memorable parts of our trip to Italy. We can’t recommend this experience enough!
- My family had a wonderful time with Paola! Her home is gorgeous, and she led our cooking class with patience and kindness. We were so excited to learn how to make homemade pasta and tiramisu. Everything was delicious!
- Paola’s cooking class was an unforgettable experience! We made two types of pasta and a delicious tiramisù, all from scratch, in her beautiful home right in the heart of Bologna. Paola treated us like family—warm, welcoming, and full of passion for Italian cuisine. Fun, authentic, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!
